Increase Rack Cooling Efficiency and Solve Heat-Related Problems

Cooling tends to take a back seat to other concerns when server rooms and small to mid-size data centers are first built. As computing needs grow, increased heat production can compromise equipment performance and cause shutdowns. Haphazard data center expansion creates cooling inefficiencies that magnify these heat-related problems. 

Users may assume that they need to increase cooling capacity, but this is expensive and often unnecessary. In most cases, low-cost rack cooling best practices will solve heat-related problems. Best practices optimize airflow, increase efficiency, prevent downtime and reduce costs.

This white paper discusses:

  • The ideal intake air temperature for IT equipment
  • Common causes of heat-related problems
  • Low-cost and no-cost cooling best practices
