INTELLIGENT BRANDS // Data Centres ABOUT MUNTERS Munters is a global provider of energy efficient air treatment systems installed worldwide. It has offices in 30 countries with over 3,500 employees and it is the leading international provider of evaporative air cooling, temperature and humidity control solutions. Innovation is at the heart of Munters with Carl Munters awarded ASHRAE Pioneer of Industry in 2017. can enter the data hall, increasing server lifetime and minimising maintenance. Due to the flexible nature of the Oasis, this modular system can be configured and designed to fit to most data centre build designs and offers the following benefits and features setting it apart: introduction of outdoor air pollutants that might adversely impact the servers. At the heart of the system is the Munters EPX polymer heat exchanger, which uses wide polymer tubing that shakes off any water residue. Indirect evaporative cooling With indirect evaporative cooling, a secondary (scavenger) air stream is cooled by water. The cooled secondary air stream goes through a heat exchanger, where it cools the primary air stream. The cooled primary air stream is circulated by a blower. A low energy cooling solution using Indirect Evaporative cooling technology, is scalable for future growth while tackling hot climates, local air pollution, multi-storey data halls and meeting shipping requirements. With savings of up to 75% in energy costs, compared to water cooled chillers with CRAHs, this is a www.intelligentcio.com truly energy efficient solution also leading to massive savings in infrastructure and space. Product solution – Oasis The Oasis DCiE Indirect Evaporative Cooling system uses Mun ters Advanced patented EPX technology, high efficiency fan walls and reclaimed water, keeping down the overall costs of running a data centre. With three modes of operation the Oasis will adapt and keep the data centre cool all year round. Because the system is indirect the data hall becomes a sealed system which means no outdoor pollutants • Munters advanced patented heat exchanger technology cools the air as it passes through • Save up to 75% energy costs compared to water cooled chillers with CRAH’s • High efficiency EC fan walls move the air through the system • Configurable for multi-storey design for high rise / multi-level buildings • Optional DX or chilled water trim cooling • Multiple airflow configurations for various installations • Zero particulate and gaseous contamination • Meeting containerised shipping requirements • Scalable cooling capacity so it can grow with your data centre • Use with any fresh water type including rain water for low water costs • Low maintenance system • Munters manufactures, delivers, installs and can maintain this product • Dedicated global team of DC cooling specialists Munters is committed to continual product development to help its customers achieve their energy efficiency goals and offer solutions for cooling, humidification, dehumidification, testing, global service and maintenance support for data centres along with a dedicated worldwide application team. n INTELLIGENTCIO 77
