Aisle Containment Solutions for Data Centres

Hot Aisle Containment Solutions Hot Aisle Containment systems enclose the data centre hot aisles and direct the hot exhaust air back to the intake of the cooling system. By preventing cold air mixing with the hot exhaust air, the efficiency of the data centres cooling system can be greatly improved and prolonged- making substantial energy savings from day one. This containment method can be used in either raised floor or hard floor applications. Isolating hot exhaust air, on its return path, also allows the rest of the data centre to remain at a reasonable temperature- which is beneficial for the staff working within the Data Centre. Hot Aisle Containment is usually the preferred choice for new data centres, as it lends itself to being part of the overall air management strategy, from day one and can deliver a number of substantial benefits.
