USpace Aisle Solutions

USystems Aisle Containment – It is accepted that traditional data center designs are inefficient; so the ambition of a ‘hot aisle/cold aisle’ DC configurations is to improve efficiency. When designed correctly Aisle containment lowers cooling costs and crucially saves energy.

Why containment?

Many years of innovation and experience accumulated at USystems producing cutting edge data center design solutions for data centers has been channelled into developing the most effective and efficient aisle containment systems currently available.

Thermodynamically advanced, cost and energy efficient, our solutions incorporate Horizontal (flat roof) and Vertical solutions spanning hot aisle or cold aisle options all of which improve cooling efficiencies specific to your data center requirements. Each style of containment can be designed around multiple height cabinets without affecting thermal performance.

  • Overview

    Horizontal Aisle Containment significantly reduces the load on the CRAC units leading to significant savings in operating costs. Here at USystems with our data center cooling systems we can provide drop-out ceiling panels beneath the sprinklers, offering a visually uncluttered experience. Alongside this our horizontal containment comes with the option of state of the art manual and electronic data center doors.

    Aisle Air Containment fully encases the corridor with a rigid enclosure which maximises the efficient use of cold air being fed in through the raised floor. The corridor remains light as light transmission (LUX) from the data center is let in through the lightweight transparent ceiling panels which have a transparency of an impressive 88%.

    Drop-Out Ceiling Panels beneath Sprinklers

    Drop-out ceiling panels can be installed beneath fire sprinklers. When exposed to heat from a developing fire, drop-out ceiling panels soften, distort, and fall from the ceiling grid. Heat from the growing fire activates the sprinkler which, unimpeded by the panels, controls or extinguishes the fire.

    • They offer a visually uncluttered appearance.
    • They provide protection for the sprinklers – making them less prone to accidental knocks, tampering, and the potential water damage that can result.
    • They simplify sprinkler design at clouds and other design features as the sprinklers are located above the dropped ceiling.
    • They’re cost effective as they eliminate the need to “drop” (lower) the sprinklers, make sprinkler positioning simple so installers only make one trip instead of two, allow for the use of less costly, non-appearance grade sprinklers, and eliminate the need for trim rings/escutcheons.

    Electronic door

    Outstanding user convenience and unique operational behaviour characterize the automatic sliding door operator. The door is magnetically driven and therefore silent in operation. Additionally the drive method allows for unparalleled levels of safety for the user.

    Manual door

    The manual door option is a state of the art sliding door closer with a hold open facility and fully adjustable damper system as standard. This ultra smooth and superbly quiet sliding door closer provides the very best quality for your application.

    The aisle beacon is controlled by a BT10 universal interface module which takes an input from the 100v loudspeaker circuit on the building fire alarm. The BT10 and a 24v relay are mounted in a Beacon Box assembly (CC6-0100-AP). The beacon is installed in the central service panel of the aisle. The customer is responsible for arranging connection of the 110v line input from the fire alarm system.

  • Overview

    Vertical containment allows for the integration of raised floor air-conditioning into the standalone warm aisle containment – this way both rows are climatically neutral against the rest of the data center. Here at USystems we provide the very best data center air and water cooling, ensuring your data center is working at its optimum.
