DATA CENTRE COOLING effective air filtration system.
Systems that provide real-time monitoring are often recommended to ensure that the air filtration devices are working at optimal efficiency. Filters can clean the air inside data centres, and also pressurize the air to block external pollutants from entering the facility. Information technology is the fastest moving of all the sectors served by the air conditioning industry and this places significant demands on close control facilities such as data centres. Thankfully, their reliability can be increased, and their energy consumption reduced, by installing the right filtration.
Particulate and gaseous contaminants can come from indoor sources, from people entering and exiting the building, and from outdoor ventilation systems. These contaminants can result in equipment downtime, complete failure or, in worst case, loss of data. Risks include: Air filters can help reduce energy costs – in many cases, by 40% or more. This is a critically important point, especially in light of the assertions made by researchers from
Chinese multinational electronics specialist Huawei Technologies. They believe data centres could be using 20% of all available electricity in the world by 2025 on the back of the large amounts of data being created at a fastest speed than ever before seen. Now more than ever, mission-critical IT requires high security and reliability and indoor air quality plays a crucial role in keeping data centres, server racks and electronic components fully functional. The risks associated with a failure to provide adequate air filtration include: Corrosion of components due to dust containing sulphur-bearing gases.
deformation of su rfaces. Obstruction of cooling air flow and
Electrical impedance changes, circuit failure a nd burnout, with the associated fire risk.
Not only do filters help provide a h ealthy, safe indoor environment free from harmful air contaminants, but they can also reduce the energy consumption of power-hungry IT equipment. Benefits of air filters in data
centres include:
Prevention equipment downtime and failure. Improvement in fire resistance with flame- retardant air filters.
Shielding against electromagnetic interference that causes data errors and equipment failure. Increased energy efficiency and lower energy costs.
Reduced carbon footprint.
