CONTROL DATA CENTER COOLING COSTS: More Efficient Cooling through Airflow Management

Overview:
The White Paper discusses ways in which data center managers can improve their PUE by first looking for opportunities of waste reduction in the cooling system. A simple formula allows you to compare airflow rate numbers and calculate your estimated "efficiency." Bypass airflow is discussed in detail as well as sealing solutions that will help reduce surplus airflow. Visit http://www.upsite.com/

Applications
The HotLok® Blanking Panel is a snap-in blanking panel that provides a 99.97+%+ effective seal in IT equipment cabinets. The state-of-the-art technology, designed for both 1U and 2U openings, controls airflow for optimized cooling effectiveness. HotLok Blanking Panel is Upsite’s latest green solution for energy savings and reducing the carbon footprint of data centers.

Features

Snap-spring design offers • durable, 99.97+% effective seal

Tool-free, snap-in • installation and easy-pull removal for any EIA-310-E standard openings using ergonomically designed finger grips

Cantilevered sealing vanes • eliminate the gap between adjoining Blanking Panels or with installed equipment

1U Panels stack 10 high and • 2U Panels stack 20 high for easy storage and ready availability

Benefits

Reduce hotspots and bypass airflow by preventing equipment exhaust air or hot-aisle air • from migrating to the conditioned air-intake stream at the front of the cabinet

Deliver lower temperature conditioned air to the upper one-third of the cabinet, typically • the hottest area and most prone to equipment failure

Control airflow to save energy by adjusting cooling unit setpoints
