Because businesses rely heavily on many digital and information technologies, business owners and managers have to invest in the equipment that is used for our computer systems and the like. But getting them up and running smoothly is just half the battle. You also need ways in which you can protect your IT and computer equipment from damage and other security risks. IT and other electronic components can be very sensitive, which isn’t good when we’re talking about equipment that can cost a hefty sum and is also crucial to the operation of your business. The last thing you want is anything that can damage or cause issues to your IT equipment.
One of the most important things when designing your data centres
You don’t just need alarms, sensors or sensing cables to protect your equipment and other systems. One of the things that your IT equipment is most sensitive to are changes in temperature and humidity. This is why they are usually placed in separate rooms from those with people, which are prone to adding to excess heat and humidity.
What you need are precision cooling systems and solutions for your server rooms and facilities. Here are just a few things you should do before installing your cooling units.
1. Consult precision cooling experts. They can help plan your layout from the ground up/
2. Determine what kind of cooling system you are going to get. There are two main types:
CRAH, or computer room air handling, or cooling systems that use chilled water
CRAC, or computer room air conditioning, or cooling systems that use refrigerants.
3. Check out aisle placements and systems. Since equipment gives off excess heat, it’s important to know how to dispel it.
