How Orlando Data Centers Cost-Effectively Manage Cooling Needs

Sponsored by DataCenterLeadGen.com

Because of Central Florida’s unique geography,


an Orlando data center must cool their racks by using sophisticated green technology and free cooling innovations


Here are four ways that data centers in Orlando introduce sustainable cooling techniques:


1. Utilizing chilled water


2. Building reflective roofs


3. Using advanced PDU systems


4. Implementing computer room air handler (CRAH) systems


Traditional Data Center Cooling Methods Impractical

for Orlando Data Centers


When data centers use inefficient methods of cooling for their equipment, facilities can:


• Cause harm to the environment


• Shoulder unnecessary energy costs


• Contribute to carbon emissions


Due to the Orlando’s unique climate, traditional methods aren’t always an option


Examining the Cooling Methods of Central Florida Data Centers


According to Tripp-Lite, PDUs utilize sophisticated power resource systems


to automatically stabilize the supply of power as well as the rack’s operating temperature when these metrics become unbalanced


Orlando area centers also use reinforced PDU cables that keep water cool until it reaches the equipment


More Advanced Methods of Cooling Data Centers in Orlando


Another innovation commonly used within Orlando data centers is the use of computer room air handler (CRAH) systems


CRAH systems often contain automated variable frequency drives (VFD)


that are designed to consume the least amount of power possible while maintaining the desired temperature inside the facility


Examples of Data Centers in Orlando That Use

Advanced Cooling Methodologies


By creating an encased server room, Alterascape’s data center design prevents the outside heat from entering the facility


To keep the facility cool, DataSite Orlando utilizes 20-ton CRAH units delivering 2,750 tons of chiller capacity


These CRAH units provide 600 watts per square foot of power density all throughout the data center


What have you found to be the most effective way to cool data centers in a location similar to Orlando, Florida?
