Manage smart backup power for precision cooling
Data centres use sophisticated and diverse cooling systems to carefully control their environment. Typically this is done by managing liquid, gas or air-cooling for computer room air conditioners (CRAC) or computer room air handler units (CRAH).
Power availability and management for cooling systems are usually installed very close to the load and must be reliable. This can be assured by purpose built Class PC automatic transfer switching equipment (ATSE) certified to IEC 60947-6-1, GB 14018.11 for China or UL 1008 for North America.
Smart starting and stopping of cooling is essential to preserve the life of the equipment whilst intelligent ATSE with communication and dedicated control functions improve efficiency and reliability.

Communication through connected ATSE products is essential for power management. Besides remote visualization, alarming and centralized controls connectivity creates intelligent systems that increase reliability and efficiency whilst reducing the risk of unavailability.
