When it comes to server rooms, there is always one thing that is at the forefront of every design and layout, and one of the biggest considerations when designing any room that houses server rooms and data centres. What is it? Well, it has to do with keeping the room at a consistent and ambient temperature for your IT equipment and computer systems.
Computer components and equipment are sensitive to changes in temperature and moisture which can be a problem in regular working environments where people and spaces can add to the overall heat and humidity of any given room. That’s why we design more efficient spaces for our IT equipment so that they can be housed in environments that lower the risk of their damage. This is called precision air conditioning for your server rooms.
What do you need to do to successfully cool your server room?
Here are the things you need to know about your server rooms when it comes to cooling: one, precision cooling is different from comfort cooling, which is the term used to describe cooling systems for rooms that are meant to be used by people. Precision cooling rooms are designed to maximise effectiveness while lowering costs. Here are some of the things you might find in a server room.
1. Precision cooling units. These aren’t just your average air conditioning units, these are designed with efficiency.
2. Hot-cold aisles layouts. Computer equipment emit heat, but if the temperature gets too hot, it can damage your electronics.
3. Rack designs. Many manufacturers create server racks with the idea of dispelling heat much more effectively.
