How a Spot Cooler Can Help Your Data Center

Servers, switches, and the other hardware in data centers don't always let users know when they are not operating at optimal capacity. Many systems are designed to keep on ticking under duress, so when they start getting hot, they'll just keep going. While it's nice to know that you can count on such vital equipment, such reliability may also make it hard to track and optimize performance. Our spot cooler rentals make it simple to see just how much heat is affecting your operations.

Spot coolers are great for supplemental cooling as well as emergencies. Most operate from the same 115- or 230-volt current that your switch cabinets and hubs are already using. This makes it easy to just "plug and go" without adding new wiring to your already-crowded data centers. Our wheeled high-volume cooler models are specifically designed for tight spaces, so they're perfect for the limited amount of room you have between your racks, making it easy to target a specific hotspot and still get around.

Some of our customers run a spot cooler while tracking server performance during benchmark tests, as they gradually add cooing capacity. This process helps them determine which parts of their data centers need more airflow.

Even though many servers have on-board fans, these only deal with heat right next to the circuit board or power supply unit. As a result, they aren't really geared for optimizing entire data centers. Our cooling units, on the other hand, come in multiple configurations that make them perfect for improving overall environmental conditions. Many of the models we carry include adjustable nozzles that allow you to direct air flow properly in the convoluted spaces typically found around many data centers and wiring closets.

Our spot coolers are entirely self-contained, and their rugged designs ensure that they work just as well in your data centers as they do on factory floors. In HVAC emergencies, they enable you to keep your vital networks operational without interruption or hardware damage.
