InRak makes Data Centre debut

UK: Airedale International is to showcase its new InRak (300mm) at the forthcoming Data Centre World exhibition.

The InRak is described as a precise and high performance in-row cooling solution, offering a market leading EER of 73.6.

Designed to sit between the server racks in a hot aisle containment configuration, the InRak takes advantage of its position close to the server heat source and the higher return air temperatures that are associated with it, providing targeted IT cooling via the shortest, direct route.

Its compact, modular design allows for incremental increases in cooling requirements. This makes it easy for multiple units of different size and capacity to be added as load increases or to eliminate hot spots.

Compatible with racks from any manufacturer, it is said to include easy and simple connection points that allow for fast installation from either above or below.

Data Centre World takes place at ExCel in London form March 15-16, 2017.
