The measures include :
1 . Cabinet airflow package 2 . Blanking plates 3 . Sealing cable entry points in the cabinet roof layout 4 . Air seal plinths for raised cabinets , sealing the space between the floor and the cabinet 5 . Sealing cable entry points as part of the cabinet airflow package 6 . Sealing-kits between cabinets
Later in this paper , we will quantify the ability of cabinets to maintain airtight seals between the hot and cold sides of IT equipment . We will also demonstrate how these measures result in substantial energy-efficiency improvements for both data centers and computer room new builds and upgrades .
With the support of a third-party testing company specialized in air flow measurements , we discovered that by investing in cabinet airflow packages in a data center with 4x in-row coolers and 18 cabinets , each cabinet producing 10kW of heat load , an organization can save more than $ 1,400 a year by minimizing wasted cooling capacity . p
