Wright Line Awarded Patent for Heat Containment
Global IT Infrastructure Supplier Recognized for Innovative Data Center Air Flow Management Solution
Worcester, MA (PRWEB) November 10, 2009 -- Wright Line, the recognized leader in providing innovative airflow management solutions for data centers, today announced that it had been granted a patent for its Heat Containment System (HCS). The patent, #7604535, was granted on Oct 20, 2009.
Wright Line's HCS was developed in direct response to customers growing concerns about the need to significantly reduce operating and capital costs while conserving energy and eliminating the waste most data centers currently experience.
Wright Line's HCS captures, manages and directs the heat exhaust from IT equipment to the top rear of the rack enclosure were it is ducted to the data center's precision air conditioning units through a ceiling plenum or hot air return.
"Chaotic cooling is a fact of life for even the most advanced data centers in operation today," said Ed Bednarcik, Wright Line CEO. "The ability to contain the hot air exhausted by servers at the rack level, and then return it directly back to a cooling device provides a much more predictable and efficient operating environment. This predictability allows the data center managers to not only reduce the total amount of cold air provided, it enables the use of increased server inlet temperature, air side economization and other cost saving approaches with a much higher degree of confidence then ever before."
"Our new HCS patent is a great example of how Wright Line continually competes and wins through innovation," said Bednarcik. "Bringing our considerable technical expertise and problem solving skills to focus on the data center energy issue, we have developed an accredited, unique, universally available method of reducing energy costs and optimizing data center efficiency and reliability."
The HCS system can be seamlessly integrated into Wright Line's own Paramount and Vantage Enclosure platforms, as well as most third-party server enclosures, including APC®, Rittal, Knurr and Chatsworth Products, Inc at the factory or in the field.
