Defending your Data to the Extreme!

Data centers today not only require protection from the elements, but also need to be designed to save energy as they consume about 1.3 percent of all global electricity.

To protect your data, Ruskin has amped up damper and louver testing to take the full brunt of extreme weather. FEMA rated grilles and hurricane-resistant louvers have been tested against high windloads and large missile impacts. Outside air control dampers seal up the center when necessary to reduce humidity and heat.

Next to technology systems, the cooling and air movement systems consume the most energy in the data center. Demands on these systems have increased substantially in recent years as server densities continue to rise to unprecedented levels. In an independent study, the use of airside economizers reduced the energy use by 13%.1

Defending your data means not only protecting it from Mother Nature but also giving back to her with sustainable designs.

1 A study on building control systems by Battelle Laboratories found that, on average, the normalized heating and cooling Energy Use Intensity (EUI) of buildings with economizers was 13 percent lower than those without economizers.
