for a modular Data Center
(<CAPEX)
This mix results in airflow with an
uncontrolled temperature that reduces the
performance of the Data Center.
Therefore, it is necessary to provide the physical
separation of the hot and cold air streams.
This is achieved by using the ‘Climaveneta
Containment System’, a simple system of
modular and scalable panels that prevent hot
and cold air mixing. It is a simple and effective
solution that guarantees the servers will be fed
with cold air and the cooling system to be more
efficient.

Cold Corridor Containment, which provides
strict control of the air feeding the servers.
Hot Corridor Containment, which confines
hot discharge air from servers.
Both the Hot and Cold Corridor Containment
Systems represent the perfect solution to
increasing the efficiency of the Data Center.

COLD AISLE CONFIGURATION
HOT AISLE CONFIGURATION
The cold air extracted from the cooling system goes through the
raised floor via a grid to expel the air. It is then directed to the
front of the rack through the raised floor. Cold air inside the
Climaveneta Containment System is directed across the whole
height of the rack, avoiding mixing cold air with hot air. The air
that passes through the rack absorbs the heat of the server and
is then expelled from the back of the rack through the fans.

distribution

inside a cold
aisle
Well managed airflow and the control over the temperature of the
air provide several advantages to the conditioning system:
The cold air generated by the cooling system passes
through the raised floor via a grid for the expelled air.
It is then directed to the front of the rack through the
raised floor where it is sucked by the rack.
Cold air inside the rack becomes hot as it absorbs
the heat from the server and is then ejected from the
back of the rack through the fans.
The Climaveneta Containment System encloses a hot
aisle to collect the hot exhaust air where the air
temperature is much higher than the room
temperature.
Higher control over the temperature
Up to 30% increased efficiency thanks to a higher
temperature difference between inlet and outlet air

Constant temperature on the front of the rack at any height,
as the partitioning eliminates the thermal gradient normally
existing.

This means that the difference between the air
temperature in the corridor and the cooled air through
the cooling system is sufficiently high (>15°C) to
ensure the greatest efficiency of the system.

The cold air containment system ensures the increased efficiency
of the whole cooling system. Due to the cold aisle being
contained there is no chance of the hot exhaust air mixing with
the cold inlet air; therefore, the air needed is just inside the aisle.
The result is a considerable increase in the system efficiency.
This configuration ensures higher efficiency of the
system because of the isolation of the hot air from the
rest of the room, without changing the room
temperature.
