Project Description:
This project will evaluate our current and future computer
room backup air conditioning requirements. It will involved analysis of current and future
distribution and tonnage needs.
Evaluation of the two 25+ year old backup units currently on the floor
including, output, service windows and service costs. A complete loss of building air
conditioning without adequate backup air conditioning will lead to
catastrophic server failures in less then 10 minutes. The cost of catastrophic server
failure would be astronomical. With
each equipment addition or upgrade comes an increase in the heat load and
amount of heat sensitive data on the computer room floor. Planning and preparation at this
point can guarantee computer room environmental integrity
Project Status:
A new Liebert 20 ton backup air conditioner unit has been installed and
certified. Training and
documentation have also been completed.
This project is completed.
