Underfloor Air Mover

HotSpotr™ Underfloor Air Mover

HotSpotr™ Underfloor air movers are a family of powered airflow improvement products that move chilled Data Centre air to precisely where it is needed most, and remove heated exhaust air directly back to your computer room air conditioners (CRACs). Top-of-the-line HotSpotr™ models are thermostatically controlled by the included temperature sensors; less expensive models are operator controlled to run as and when required.

Proper airflow distribution is the key to providing cooling to ever higher density server racks. Most Data Centres have 2-3 times more cooling capacity than they need for their server load, according to the Uptime Institute, but failure to deliver enough cooling air to rack intakes causes recirculation of hot air and overheating of servers. Under floor obstructions such as pipes, cabling, cable trays etc. can cause low static pressure and reduced flow from some perforated tiles and grates. Racks placed too close or too far away from CRAC units also face issues with low and even negative static pressure. The result is many data centres are overcooled just to manage a few hot spots.

HotSpotr™ provides the solution
HT-510	HotSpotr™ underfloor air mover delivers cold air to server racks. The HT-510 consists of a redundant matrix of high performance DC fans that are controlled by an intelligent thermostatic controller and delivers cooling air where and when it is needed, and in the right amount. Correct distribution of cooled air will save on energy costs and reduce carbon footprint as CRAC units will work less hard but more efficiently. HT-510 Features Thermostat maintains selectable temperatures Supports 10-12Kw racks Mounts directly to popular grates Adaptors for all 24” and 600mm floor and tile types VFD control of fan speed EPO option Certified to IEC-60950-1 Can be installed in 30 minutes or less with no downtime involved Measurable results within minutes Operates in two modes Stand Alone or in networked “Room Scale Intelligent Cooling” mode where several tiles can be networked to a central controller to manage the entire room.
