Rahi Systems, a global provider of data center solutions, based in Fremont, California with offices in India, Hong Kong, Singapore, China, Netherlands, UK, Japan and Australia, added "innovative" indirect adiabatic cooling technology Air @ Work to its portfolio US data center solutions.

Data center cooling infrastructure provides significant OPEX for the majority of today's data center providers. Various technologies are deployed -. Expensive and massive cooling towers to chilled water systems cooling systems

indirect adiabatic cooling technology Air @ Work would provide data center operators with economies of significant energy and cost reduction in both OPEX and maintenance of cooling infrastructure. Air @ Work is a European manufacturer of efficient cooling solutions Air Energy is headquartered in the Netherlands and founded by industry experts in the treatment of air.

rahi systems "Rahi Systems is pleased to announce this partnership with Air @ Work," said Paul Weber, VP of Engineering, Rahi Systems . "With the talent of our team, extensive experience in the design, implementation and operation of large scale data centers, we are well positioned to bring this new technology to the US market. We believe that this innovative technology is a green solution and reduce costs. In addition, Air @ Work has made several major implementations in Europe renovation and new data center built with their patented technology. "

Patented technology

The adiabatic cooling indirect systems are designed to be "affordable, durable and low maintenance costs the @ Work air cooling solution uses' StatiqCooling -. a synthetic heat exchanger for indirect adiabatic cooling . the heat exchanger is a patented technology developed by Air @ work works with "extremely low water consumption."

the systems are modular from 20KW to 0KW in capacity modules. This modularity allow data center operators to measure and control the use, consumption and the various specific cooling models to rental needs in data centers with precision.
