Hot Spot Remediation Services

Air-cooled raised-floor data centers continue to be the most common facilities to house computer equipment. Since the air is supplied to the space below the raised floor at a few discrete locations (by the CRAC units) and emerges from many perforated tiles spread throughout the data center, the flow distribution is usually not uniform. As a result, despite careful efforts of the designers and operators of the data centers, sufficient air may not reach critical computer equipment.

Sealco specialists are trained to provide Hot Spot Remediation Services (HSRS) to keep the high levels of heat dissipation down from the increasing energy of IT equipment. Sealco’s specialists will identify problem areas and make recommendations for improving the air circulation and air-cooling capacity that is required for high performance IT environments.

Sealco HSRS specialists can also utilize a powerful software program, TileFlow™ for calculating the amount of cold airflow through each perforated tile. TileFlow takes into account all important parameters that influence the airflow distribution and is a reliable, quick, and cost-effective tool for designing new facilities, rearranging and upgrading existing facilities, optimizing floor layouts, and studying failure scenarios. The HSRS process is complete with the installation of Koldlok™ raised-floor grommets, which prevent air/pressure loss, hot spots, and room overheating and contamination.

To eliminate hot spots and the trouble they cause, ask your Sealco specialist how HSRS can help your company today. Our Hot Spot Remediation services include:

• Performing analysis of computer room cooling units
• Calculating and measuring air flow
• Measuring under floor static pressure
• Identifying holes under the raised floor
