Manage smart backup power for precision cooling
Data centers use sophisticated and diverse cooling systems to control their environment carefully. Typically this is done by managing liquid, gas, or air-cooling for computer room air conditioners (CRAC) or computer room air handler units (CRAH).
Power availability and management for cooling systems are usually installed very close to the load and must be reliable. This can be assured by purpose-built Class PC automatic transfer switching equipment (ATSE) certified to UL 1008 and IEC 60947-6-1.
Smart starting and stopping of cooling is essential to preserve the life of the equipment, whilst intelligent ATSE with communication and dedicated control functions improve efficiency and reliability.

Communication through connected ATSE products is essential for power management. Besides remote visualization, alarming and centralized control connectivity creates intelligent systems that increase reliability and efficiency while reducing the risk of unavailability.
