by Ann Withanee — December 14, 2011—It may seem like a paradox, but when winter demands heat for the building’s occupants, the tech equipment is crying for a cooler closet, and if a lower temperature is not provided, severe, and costly, damage can occur. A solution is offered by MovinCool in a new brochure written for facilities managers, IT managers and mechanical contractors. It is aptly entitled How to Prevent IT Equipment from Overheating — in Winter. Keeping Server Rooms and Telecom Closets Cool in Heated Buildings.
“Many businesses house their server and telecom equipment in converted closets or other small rooms, but often there is no way of cooling these heat-dense spaces when the building’s main air conditioning system is switched to heating mode,” said Fran Labun, vice president, Sales Groups. “This sets the stage for possible equipment failure, costly damage, or even costlier system downtime.”
MovinCool’s seven-page guide addresses this problem by examining the advantages of its new class of self-contained, ceiling-mounted air conditioners, which are specifically designed for cooling small spaces with dense heat loads. The guide is available as a free download from the MovinCool Web site.
MovinCool, a major manufacturer of spot air conditioners, is a brand of DENSO Corporation, which has pioneered the concept of workspace spot cooling since the 1980s.
