Cold Aisle Containment

To reduce energy costs and noise in the data center, you must isolate the hot and cold airflow through each rack and the entire room. Austin Hughes’s latest innovation in Aisle Containment has focused on total air isolation which not only reduce energy cost but also optimize power availability. It increases cooling efficiencies by up to 40%.

Airflow Management Under Cold Aisle Containment

Key Benefits

  • Result in improved cooling that significantly increase energy savings
  • Extends the life of active equipment like switches and servers by reducing the heat load
  • Provide more cooling with less energy by containing and directing the cold air to where it is needed
  • Less CRAC units on operation or needed as all active equipment has been entirely cold air contained
  • Helpful to achieve to be a green data center corporation & make a contribution towards the environment

Quality Assurance

  • Manufactured by Austin Hughes’s own facilities certified by ISO9001 / 14001
  • Green product RoHS & REACH certified by SGS laboratory
  • Long-term services commitment for system expanding, relocation & customization
  • 5 years warranty for metal, parts & labor on-site

Cold Aisle Containment

Cold Aisle Containment isolates the cold air, preventing it from mixing with the hot air. To enclose the cold aisle between adjustment rack rows, Aisle Containment Doors are combined with an overhead ceiling and Austin Hughes SR or NSR server rack.

Most IT equipment breathes front to rear. Those extract fan panels of the rear door catch the exhaust air off rack equipment & channel it into a hot aisle as the below drawing.
