Temporary Patch Room Cooling To Facilitate Critical Repairs

ACR provides temporary patch room cooling hire to a major data centre operator in Slough

Temporary Patch Room Cooling- The Challenge

This client was experiencing problems with one of their fixed units and required a temporary patch room cooling to be installed to secure operation.

Whilst access for the equipment was straightforward, limited space in the room made this job a little trickier than first appeared.

The externally fitted water chiller which is connected to the internal units with flexible hose. A really tidy system that is quick to install and very reliable

The Solution To Temporary Patch Room Cooling

For an effective solution we recommended a 60kw cooling system consisting of a water chiller and AHU’s. Matching the faulty units cooling capacity ensured that sufficient cooling would be available to keep the room operational.

Because of space restrictions, a ducted system was discussed with the AHU’s mounted externally. However, this was declined due to the larger wall penetrations required over hosing. In view of this, a chilled water system was agreed-on with an externally located water chiller.

Internally, two compact 30kw AHU’s were fitted with ducting to direct the air into the hot isle. Flexible rubber hosing was used for fast connection of the chiller to the AHU’s.

Summary

A great little job this one and very important for this client to maintain reliable operations.

The system provided temporary patch room cooling for around 4 months whilst the clients fixed units were repaired. No issues arose. Take a look at our extensive AHU range here.
