  • Color-Coded Server Adhesive Temperature Strips For At-A-Glance Identification Of Thermal Issues.

    The HotLok® Server Temperature Strip is a liquid crystal thermometer with an acrylic self-adhesive backing that quickly and accurately measures the intake air temperature of IT equipment. It indicates whether the air temperature is within acceptable limits based on the standards established by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and equipment manufacturers. Measurement of equipment intake air temperature is used in the management of all elements of cooling infrastructure such as the number and type of perforated tiles or grates, cooling unit temp set points, and cooling unit airflow volumes. Sold in Pack of 10

    ASHRAE Recommendations

    ASHRAE recommends monitoring the supply temperature at the bottom, middle and top of each server cabinet to ensure proper readings at each level. However, this can be very expensive using other monitoring methods. Low-cost, adhesive temperature strips can quickly and easily be placed directly onto the doors of server cabinets, blanking panels or other flat surfaces.

  • Cool Shield Individual Blanking Panels are fire-rated plastic panels which install quickly to fill unused rack spaces within server cabinets. The rigid panels are durable, non-porous, easy to store and very cost effective. The panels are available in several sizes ranging from 1U to 23U. Seal empty rack spaces in seconds with easy snap in clips. Removing the panels is nearly as easy as the clips release with a simple quarter turn.
    The use of blanking panels is a best practice for any data center implementing hot and cold aisles and is a necessity for any facility which implements aisle containment. Filling the blank spaces and gaps prevents air mixing between supply and exhaust air within the cabinet. A facility which uses aisle containment can have hot aisle temperatures of 90 or even 100 degrees F. Without blanking panels this hot air will travel through open U spaces to the server intake and cause hot spots. Ignoring the comparatively simple step of blanking off empty RU spaces can actually reverse the effects of aisle containment. The Cool Shield Blanking Panels are made of a high-impact Kydex thermoplastic material which is lightweight yet extremely durable. The virtually unbreakable material resists chipping and particulation. The matte finish will keep the color from fading over time. The material also meets the highest rating for chemical resistance and is recognized by Underwriters Laboratory (UL) for highest rating in Standard 94, V-0.

  • The Cool Shield AirStrip™ is an innovative, multi-purpose solution for sealing open spaces in and around server cabinets. Filling blank spaces and gaps prevents air mixing between supply and exhaust air within the cabinet. This improves cooling efficiency in cold aisle/hot aisle layouts and can be critical to the effectiveness of aisle containment. The melamine resin foam base material is made 99.9% airtight by heat sealing both sides. Multiple individual strips are fused together to make one panel. This fusing process results in no air loss between strips. Strip can be easily separated as needed. BP Panels feature a slit along the sides of each panel allows them to quickly slip over standard 19” mounting rails. With the 9U BP Panels blanking an entire cabinet takes less than one minute to install. As cabinet is populated, simply remove the strips in those rack positions and re-purpose them in another location. VP Panels are 48” tall perforated into six 1” wide strips. They are also scored vertically every 2” so they can be cleanly separated to fit just about any size gap. Sealing the gaps next to rack rails, between cabinets and at the cabinet base can have a huge impact. Studies have determined that up to 30% of exhaust air can re-circulate to the front of cabinet if gaps are not properly sealed. This situation can significantly impact the effectiveness of hot aisle/cold aisle layouts and containment solutions. It can also undermine the ability to raise CRAC set points which prevents significant energy savings.
