USystems Limited
wins an Innovation Award for developing and manufacturing ColdLogik CL20 rear coolers. Fitted as doors onthe backs of data cabinets, they are self-contained, water-cooled systems which have revolutionised the temperature control of computer and data centres. Rather than cooling entire computer rooms by producing cold air from air-conditioning units andforcing it into the front of cabinets, hot air generated by active IT equipment inside cabinets is drawn directly across watercooledheat exchangersin the new devices. Aided by proprietary software, heat is removed at source. Compared with traditionalsystems the new equipment, which can be retro-fittedin established centres, gives significant reductionsin costs and ‘carbonfootprints’ associated with building and operating centres. Through this innovation the company has gained success ininternational markets.
