NetworkAIR IR

Model #: NetworkAIR IR
NetworkAIR IR by APC
The world's only computer room air conditioning system with horizontal airflow for in-row operation.
Data center heat densities continue to increase, making it more difficult to provide adequate cooling. The distance between heat sources and heat removal systems must decrease to ensure proper airflow paths. The closer to the heat generation source the air conditioner is, the less likely mixing of hot and cold air streams will occur.

The NetworkAIR IR is a computer room air conditioning system with a horizontal airflow pattern specifically designed for hot aisle/cold aisle configurations. Warm exhaust air is drawn from the hot aisle, cooled, and distributed into the cold aisle, ensuring that equipment inlet temperatures will be constant and adequate for proper operation.

Closely coupling the air conditioner with the heat source produces warmer return air to the system. This increases the heat removal capacity of the system and nearly eliminates the need for make-up humidification.
Information:

Buy Specifications

  • Predictable cooling - Placing the unit in the row of racks moves the source of cooling closer to the heat load. This eliminates air mixing and provides a predictable cooling architecture.
  • Critical power input - Critical components may be configured to receive power from a separate source for uninterruptible cooling during a power event. (This feature requires a backup power source to the chilled water supply.)

    Agility
  • Scaleable densities - The in-row architecture cools densities of 1-5kW per rack. Densities up to 20kW per rack can be achieved by implementing the Hot-aisle Containment System.

    Total Cost of Ownership
  • Operational efficiency - Warmer entering air temperatures reduce both the required amount of humidification and the demand for costly reheat.
  • Increased capacity - Warmer entering air temperatures result in increased cooling capacity, requiring fewer cooling units than traditional cooling methodologies.

    Manageability
  • Dew point humidity control - Humidification control can be set to dew point control instead of relative humidity control. Warmer return air temperatures can result in over-humidification when set for relative humidity control. Dew point control uses the moisture content of the air for humidification demand.
  • Microprocessor controller - Provides proactive control and real-time monitoring via a four line, eighty character, alphanumeric display.
  • Temperature/humidity probe - Monitors the room temperature and relative humidity up to 12 feet away. Can be used for controlling set points.
  • Network interface - Provides management by connecting the device directly to the network with a dedicated IP address, avoiding the need for a proxy such as a server. Management is available via Web browser, Telnet or SSH. Notification features inform you of problems as they occur.
  • Redundant group control - Allows up to 4 groups of precision air conditioners to communicate with each other for redundancy, demand fighting prevention, mode assist, and global sharing of certain settings.

    Serviceability
  • Front service access - The system has full service, front access for routine servicing of components. Front access also narrows the footprint of the system making it possible for units to be placed side by side.
  • Top and bottom chilled water connections - Provide flexibilty in installation based on the constraints of a given area.
