Cooling system for network closets and server rooms

24 November 2010 Enclosures, Racks, Cabinets & Panel Products

APC’s InRow SC system is a self-contained, integrated cooling enclosure designed for network closet and server room environments.

These systems offer the flexibility to be deployed as a fully contained IT environment, meaning no need for remote heat exchangers, or as a partially contained system that can be added as a retrofit to allow for growth within existing space. Complete with up to 7 kW of cooling capacity, a 600 mm wide rack enclosure, and front and rear containment options, these cooling systems monitor and actively adjust cooling capacity to ensure proper server inlet temperatures.

The InRow SC systems are self-contained units including an InRow SC row-based cooling solution, NetShelter SX rack enclosure and Rack Air Containment options, and offering ease of installation and mobility during changes. Intelligent and manageable components make the system network-enabled and self monitoring. Containment wrapped around IT rack and cooling creates an isolated environment capsule that can be placed in most surroundings with low noise impact as well as the option to add security solutions.

InRow SC cooling offers cooling for server room and wiring closet environments in a row-based architecture, including features such as active response controls, individual hot swap, variable speed fans, remote management capabilities, coil freeze protection, dry contact output and horizontal airflow pattern.

The NetShelter enclosure provides a reliable rack-mounting environment for high-density and networking equipment, including mounts for two APC metered PDUs (not included with bundle) in one rear channel, multivendor equipment compatibility, numbered U positions, removable reversible fully ventilated doors and simple baying installation.

Rack Air Containment is a modular system designed to work in conjunction with the NetShelter SX enclosure and InRow cooling unit to provide high cooling predictability, capacity and efficiency. Easy to install, the unit attaches to the front and rear of the NetShelter SX rack enclosure, thereby eliminating mixing of hot and cold air streams.
