Eaton-Williams latest CRAC system offers data centres a flexible cooling solution

The new FleXaire® CRAC (Computer Room Air Conditioning) system from Eaton-Williams provides precision controlled cooling for data centres. Modern data centres generate substantial amounts of heat which is further increased with the use of higher density equipment packed into more racks. The FleXaire DX down flow system provides efficient heat removal and reliable humidity control within tight tolerances.

Incorporating Eaton-Williams latest purpose-built controls platform and supporting the most common standard BMS protocols, six FleXaire models are available ranging from 10-60Kw. High technology features are standard and include EC fans, dual compressors, the latest evaporator designs and profiled corrugated aluminium fins which increase the efficiency of heat transfer.

Comprehensive network control and duty/standby strategies are integrated into every FleXaire model to meet the constantly changing requirements of datacentres. This ensures that whatever the size of data centre space, multiple units can be added to provide additional cooling capacity and will operate together to achieve optimal cooling efficiently.

FleXaire also offers the necessary levels of resilience. Each FleXaire CRAC system and condenser comprises a self-contained cooling unit. This ensures that any fault within the refrigeration circuit and pipework will not affect other FleXaire CRAC systems.

Key benefits:
• Precision control of humidity and temperature
• Reliable operation 24/7, 365 days per year
• Touch screen technology
• Energy saving
• Cooling of critical spaces

FleXaire’s design provides the optimal cooling capacity from the minimum footprint, which frees up more space for racks, provides ease of installation and offers a totally flexible cooling solution.
