commissioning and maintenance services for the deployment of complex data center infrastructure. The EcoStruxure Pod architecture features NetShelter Racks. These Racks are available in various dimensions (U heights and depth) to support a wide range of power levels/rack.
Liquid cooling A key element of the solution stack is expertise and full offerings in liquid cooling. With Motivair joining Schneider Electric, we now have a comprehensive range of offerings that can be integrated with modular, pod and rack solutions, fully backed by research and consultancy services. The full alignment of the two portfolios means there are no worries about compatibility. Implementing liquid cooling becomes more streamlined, saving time and money while also getting AI solutions running quicker.
Software suite These new systems need to be monitored and managed, with a full end-to-end view from planning to operation. The EcoStruxure software suite provides the full range of advanced digital solutions. • Integration of ETAP and NVIDIA Omniverse technologies enables the creation of a comprehensive AI Factory digital twin where multiple dynamics interact seamlessly. ETAP’s sophisticated modelling technology enables the creation of virtual replicas of a data center’s electrical infrastructure and combines it with real-time power system data, advanced analytics and insights.
• EcoStruxure IT CFD analysis enables virtual equipment layout for optimisation of Cooling and Energy Efficiency.
• Data Centre Infrastructure Management (DCIM) enables real time monitoring and management of mission critical assets.
Active management Active system management along the entire ‘Design, Build, Operate and Maintain’ lifecycle is key to overcoming challenges and unlocking value
from the solutions. Schneider Electric provides consulting services to optimise the Design and Build phase. Asset performance is further optimised during the Operate and Maintain phase with digitised asset tracking and monitoring, collecting asset data to perform health monitoring via the array of connected sensors and providing predictive and prescriptive insights through data analytics. Sustainability and modernisation services further optimise asset life and minimises environmental impact with circularity and modernisation services.
