Vertiv launches data center containment solution
Vertiv , a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions , has announced the availability of the Vertiv Aisle Containment System in Latin America .
This solution provides data center containment in order to prevent the cool air supplied by air conditioning systems to mix with the hot air expelled by equipment . The way this environment is managed directly impacts data center costs , and therefore the costs of the services offered by a given provider to the market .
Thermal loss means waste of electricity , one of the major costs in data centers . Studies conducted by Vertiv ’ s engineering team show that the use of the Vertiv Aisle Containment System can increase energy efficiency by 30 %.
The most common configuration for this solution is to install the Aisle Containment System in the area where equipment is positioned across from other equipment within an aisle format . Vertiv ’ s Aisle Containment System solution is suitable for all data center racks available in the market , including equipment of different heights .
“ The system helps customers from the most diverse segments – from hyperscale sites dedicated to colocation to modular data centers supporting Edge Computing applications in hospitals , schools and government agencies – to meet their business and energy efficiency goals ,” said Rafael Garrido , VP , Vertiv Latin America .
