The hot/cold aisle system is considered as a standard arrangement of data centers. The cabinets are oriented face to face, with cold air being fed through perforated parts in the raised double floor.
The ANSI/TIA/EIA-942-A standard recommends a cold aisle width of 1.2 meters, which is the equivalent of two tiles of a double floor.
CONTAINED HOT ISLE
Cold air is distributed through perforated tiles in front of each cabinet and drawn into the cabinets by airflow technology.
The cabinets are positioned face to face and the cold air is supplied to the active elements through their 86% perforated tension metal doors.
Since the double floor is used to supply cold air, it is essential that all other openings in the floor, such as cable entries, are covered with double brush grommets (DP-KP-KAR-A). This helps to maintain the static pressure in the double floor and minimizes possible leaks in undesirable locations.
Recommended hot/cold aisle configurations
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Recommended configurations |
The front tension metal door ensures excellent cold air inflow into the cabinet, while the rear tension metal door allows heated air to flow out of the cabinet; we recommend using accessories for proper air flow control inside the cabinet - a separation frame and blanking panels. Front tension metal door (perforation rate 86%) with a multi-point lock and a universal key Back tension metal door (perforation rate 86%) with a multi-point lock and a universal key Removable side panels with a lock and a universal key Two pairs of 19" vertical sliding rails Upper and lower cable entries, removable top cover Height-adjustable feet, optional pedestals or pedestals with filter |
| Alternative |
In setups where cabinets cannot be used for any reason, we offer an alternative - RSG4 19" open frame. Its load capacity of up to 1,500 kg makes it suitable for the installation of heavy servers, disk arrays, etc. The frames are also ideal for use in testing labs and service centers. |
| Recommended cooling systems |
Recommended cooling solutions for cold aisle containments require central cooling systems or the installation of lateral cooling units. We have been an official partner of a leading global manufacturer of cooling solutions since 2008. This partnership enables us to offer sophisticated central cooling systems. Do not hesitate to contact us! We will be happy to assist you, whether your project requires a simple cooling method or a large central cooling capacity. |
PREMIUM Server RF1 is a new and unrivaled cabinet of the Premium series designed for the most demanding customers and modern data centers.
New types of rails with U-position markings are very easy to fix, offering an extraordinary degree of variability of the internal layout. An 86% perforated door can be opened up to an angle of 190°.
The RF1 cabinet is compatible with all CONTEG cooling, airflow optimization, and flexible cable management systems, as well as with many additional systems, such as access systems, PDUs, smart power, and fire extinguishing systems.
The portfolio of power distribution units (PDU) that ensure power distribution in high power density IT environments includes 3 types - controlled PDUs enabling control of individual sockets or their groups remotely via a data network, monitored PDUs enabling remote monitoring of the current drawn from the power supply panel via Ethernet /IP, and basic PDUs with no additional features.
The RAMOS monitoring system is used to monitor the internal and external environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, water leakage, smoke, etc.) in large data centers, server rooms or individual cabinets. The system is ready to integrate and monitor other devices, such as smart power supply panels (PDUs), uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), cooling units, etc. The system supports remote control. RAMOS includes 4 types of main monitoring units with differentiated sets of functions. The units support a different number of sensor and offer different number of inputs and outputs. All main monitoring units have a built-in web server for basic settings and can also be integrated into the CONTEG Pro Server application, which allows for central management, monitoring of the environment, and access using RAMOS hardware. Information can be transmitted over the following protocols: HTML, XML, SNMP, SMTP.
