The End Use Lease plus Industry Trends
The organizers of the Datacenter Dynamics event held earlier this week in Dallas had an event that flew in the face and the economic downturn and news media reports of corporate travel restrictions impacting IT. In fact, Chris Collins reported that the nearly 400 68365595-dregistered attendees exceeded last year's total. Collins was particularly pleased by the morning's presentation of the the U.S. Department of Defense Enhanced Use Lease Program.  Bob Penn and Patrick Giardina of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers spoke before a packed room about the program's value to the data center industry. Collins said, "This was the first time this program had been seen anywhere. It just launched on December 2. With 14 million square feet of space and a lot it in prime locations, it makes quite a value proposition." Look for more details on this program in the coming months.

Emerson Network Power introduced a technologically-enhanced, chilled water-based computer room air conditioning unit (CRAC) that offers greater energy savings to large data centers. The Liebert CW is a precision cooling system available in upflow and downflow configurations and in cooling capacities up to 181 kW. The system, which uses exi LiebertCW_low res sting building chilled water supply as the cooling source, offers precision cooling and humidity control matched to the needs of data center equipment. Larger downflow models of the Liebert CW are available with optional energy efficient EC plug fans, which achieve the highest level of energy efficiency. Both upflow and downflow models in all capacities are available with optional variable speed drive fans to improve energy efficiency over standard fan operation.

The Air Guard Flush Mount from PDU Cables is a product that helps prevent air loss in plenum cooled floors when access holes are required for cable routing through the floor.

Air Guard Flush Mount:

  • Reduces air loss in plenum cooled floors and increases under-floor static pressure.
  • Seals cable openings with an overlapping brush cover which prevents under-floor contamination.
  • Designed with a removable back brush that allows for great versatilit airGuardy when floor tiles need to be removed.
  • Provided with an integrated trim to save labor from cutting individual trim fittings.
  • Allows flexibility and simplicity in cable routing.
  • Flame retardant ABS polycarbonate material provides a finished look on all raised floor panels, solid construction and the textured surface compliments all floor coverings.

The overlapping brushes in Air Guard's unique design allow flexibility and simplicity in cable routing. The brushes seal the floor openings, preventing debris from entering the air plenum and causing damage to sensitive electronic equipment.
