by Shane Henson — September 23, 2013—Automated Logic Corporation (ALC), an international provider of building automation solutions developed to maximize energy efficiency, is providing critical building monitoring and control for Intergate.Manhattan, reportedly the world’s tallest high-rise data center and the city’s only purpose-built data center. Previously known as the Verizon Building, this 32-story, 1.2 million-square-foot tower located at 375 Pearl Street in lower Manhattan is owned by Sabey Data Center Properties, a Seattle-based multitenant data center infrastructure specialist and co-location provider.
According to Mead Rusert, president of Automated Logic, his company considered the mission-critical challenges Sabey Data Center Properties faced in providing an optimal environment for its mega data center, and knew Automated Logic’s WebCTRL system was the best solution to meet Intergate.Manhattan’s needs.
“The innovative control and monitoring features within WebCTRL give facilities managers the power and flexibility they need to create ideal environments that operate as efficiently as possible,” said Rusert. “WebCTRL’s track record of reliability provides reassurance for the vital uptime demand in this market.”
ALC’s building automation system provides essential heating, ventilation and air conditioning control for the facility, which is capable of accommodating up to 40 megawatts of power and housing 600,000 square feet of data center space. The WebCTRL system is also providing multiple levels of redundant (2N) control, backed by extensive trend reporting capabilities. Sabey’s critical operation team will fully utilize these capabilities to develop advanced sequences for chiller plant optimization and maximum efficiency. Tenants will benefit from innovative system features that allow ideal operational conditions, security monitoring, and full access reporting and monitoring of critical operations, says Automated Logic.
