Schneider Electric has introduced the second generation of the InRow DX (direct expansion) 600mm as the latest addition to the InRow product line, expanding Schneider Electric’s vast cooling portfolio to meet the evolving cooling needs of an ever-changing data center environment. Providing the high density cooling data center managers need to maintain critical facility temperatures, the InRow DX features lowered energy costs, enhanced controls, and a new user interface as the most efficient system of its class.
This second generation release significantly improves cooling efficiency by reducing power consumption while also increasing capacity. Capable of high-density cooling up to 42kW with a 4000 SCFM max airflow in a small 600mm-wide footprint, Schneider Electric’s InRow DX solution provides the highest partial-load energy savings in the industry, cutting energy consumption by 50% over first generation technology. This savings is enabled by the use of new brushless variable speed scroll compressors and EC fans, making the new InRow DX 600mm the most efficient system of its class.
Pay as you Grow
The InRow DX design closely couples cooling with the IT heat load, preventing hot air recirculation, while improving cooling predictability and allowing for a pay as you grow environment. Available in self-contained, fluid-cooled, and air-cooled configurations with or without humidity control, these products meet the diverse requirements for closet, server room, and data center cooling.
Active Flow Control
The addition of Active Flow Control — which measures air pressure inside the containment system and automatically adjusts fan speed to match the exact airflow of the IT equipment — increases precision and efficiency. With an improved user-friendly design, the InRow DX also features an intuitive 4.3-in. color touch screen display and network card, to provide fast, easy access to data and increased visibility into cooling system performance.
