Design and installation of complete server room air conditioning systems

Server systems generate a large amount of heat when operating. Excessively high temperatures can cause unexpected incidents for equipment, such as: overload, short circuits, fires, etc. Therefore, to ensure the system always operates well, installing an air conditioning system for the server room is essential.

Nowadays, owning and using a dedicated server within businesses is becoming increasingly common. Because of the need for security and internal information exchange. When installing a server, a fairly large space is needed to house all the hardware, while also providing enough space for the heat generated by the machine to not affect other equipment or items.

Benefits of using a server room air conditioning system

No business would want to risk technical incidents, component failures, or fires in their server room. Therefore, investing in a server room air conditioning system is necessary for businesses that are installing their own server systems.

Installing an air conditioning system for the server room will help maintain the room temperature within the range of 22 – 25 degrees Celsius. This is the ideal temperature range for the operation of electronic components, helping them maximize their capabilities and have the highest durability.

And the air conditioning system in the server room will be turned on continuously 24/7/365. This helps keep the room temperature stable and prevents it from becoming dangerous.

Suitable design space

Suitable area is one of the most important requirements. The server room – server room space needs to be large enough for the machinery system, racks, and other equipment. If possible, separate the server into a separate room to avoid close contact with other documents and papers.

The server room needs to meet the following requirements:

Regarding design: Have surrounding walls, separate from other spaces. The entrance door area should be wide enough to move equipment flexibly, avoid using slippery floor tiles.

Fire protection system: Use fire extinguishers and other fire-fighting equipment that do not contain water.

The heat load requirements of each server room are different, so the arrangement of equipment in the room and the room space will be factors affecting the design and installation of the system. The cooling system needs to have the appropriate capacity to cool the space, and the location of the indoor units must be designed by experienced professionals. Install a ventilation system to help the cold air in the room move at the appropriate speed to cool the air and reduce the temperature of the equipment. However, equipment and piping need to be installed in a suitable location, especially to avoid water leaks.

The design of the air conditioning system should be carried out by experts and experienced engineers to provide appropriate design drawings.

Choosing suitable air conditioning equipment for the server room

The server system operates continuously, without rest, 24 hours a day. Even when we are not using the computer equipment belonging to that system. Therefore, the air conditioning system will need to operate stably and reliably for a long time, and they have a long lifespan.

Due to the characteristics of the equipment in the room, it needs to be combined with the dehumidification function, limiting dust in the air.

In addition, due to continuous operation, the server room air conditioning system will use a lot of electrical energy, increasing the operating costs of the business. To save as much energy as possible, we need to choose a system with a capacity that is suitable for its power-saving capabilities.

Choosing industrial air conditioners to install for server rooms is appropriate because industrial air conditioners have high capacity to meet the temperature requirements of server rooms. Currently, there are types of air conditioners suitable for server rooms:

• Chiller central air conditioning system
• VRF central air conditioning system
• Ducted ceiling concealed air conditioner
• …

Ensure ventilation in the room

Ensuring ventilation in the server room is very important. There are many benefits when the server room is properly ventilated.

Air conditioning transfers heat from one place to another. Therefore, the effectiveness of cooling will be greatly affected by the effectiveness of ventilation. If it is ensured that the airflow can circulate around the room and has a reasonable heat dissipation direction, this system can ensure the temperature of the server room.

Even if you have chosen a cooling device with the appropriate capacity, if you do not ensure ventilation, the cooling efficiency will not be guaranteed.

In case the air conditioning system is already in use but does not meet the cooling requirements, you can consider using other devices to help circulate the airflow.

Choose a reputable service provider

When put into use, the Server becomes the information lifeline of the business. Therefore, this is a valuable part and needs to be carefully protected. Choosing a unit capable of designing and constructing a complete installation package with many years of experience will make customers feel secure.
