Cold Aisle Cabinet

Quick AnswerCold Aisle Cabinet — an IDCPDU Cold Aisle Containment for cold-aisle containment projects.
  1. Cold aisle physically closed — Supply air stops mixing with hot exhaust, so the same CRAC capacity cools more racks instead of chasing leaks.
  2. Built to Tier II, upgradeable to III+ — The containment and power path are specified against a stated tier, which is what an auditor asks for first.
  3. UPS sized in the same package — ⁦20–250⁩ kVA with N, N+1 or 2N redundancy is engineered together with the aisle, so nobody has to reconcile two suppliers' drawings.

Product Description

  • Factory-prefabricated modules for fast on-site assembly.
  • Isolates hot and cold airflow, saving up to 30% energy.
  • Integrated power, cooling, monitoring and fire linkage.
  • Designed for modern data centers pursuing green energy efficiency, lower emissions, modularization and intelligent monitoring, the system is widely deployed across finance, government, telecom, energy, transportation, healthcare, education and manufacturing — for new builds, retrofits and expansions alike.
  • Separated power and signal cable troughs run along the top of the aisle, and the enclosed track-mounted double doors open by remote control, card, password or sensor. A fire-rated skylight opens under gravity to admit gas fire suppression into the aisle area, linked with sound-and-light alarms, smoke sensors and temperature-humidity sensors. The configuration integrates in-row or room-level air conditioners, UPS, rack-mounted precision power distribution cabinets and data-center cabinets with baying kits, plus the enclosed cold aisle, environment monitoring system and KVM.
  • Because cold and hot air are fully isolated with no turbulence or short-circuiting, cooling efficiency rises well above single-cabinet levels, allowing higher equipment density in less floor space. Centralized management covers access control, video surveillance, asset management and battery monitoring, with alarms pushed by local sound-and-light, SMS, email and phone, and precise energy-efficiency analysis over standard network management interfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a cold aisle containment system and why is it used?

It encloses the cold aisle between cabinet rows so cold and hot air are fully isolated, with no turbulence or airflow short-circuiting. Cooling efficiency rises well above single-cabinet levels, equipment density increases, less floor space is needed, and energy consumption drops by up to 30%.

What aisle widths and cabinet counts does the system support?

The enclosed aisle is 1200 mm or 1800 mm wide. A single-row module holds ⁦3–24⁩ cabinets and a double-row module ⁦6–40,⁩ with a total length under 15 m including air conditioners. Cabinets are 600 or 800 mm wide, ⁦1000–1200⁩ mm deep and 2000 or 2200 mm high, providing 42U or 47U of usable space.

What cooling options are available for the cold aisle cabinet?

In-row or room-level air conditioners, either direct-expansion (air-cooled) or chilled water. In-row units use variable-frequency compressors and EC fans with horizontal airflow, sized 300 × 1200 × 2000 mm or 600 × 1200 × 2000 mm; room-level units use fixed-frequency compressors with underfloor air supply.

How is power distributed inside the cold aisle?

The system runs on 380/400/415 Vac, 50/60 Hz, 3Ph+N+PE. A modular UPS of ⁦20–250⁩ kVA can be configured N, N+1 or 2N with at least 95% efficiency and online hot-swap maintenance, and batteries are installed internally or externally. Rack PDUs mount vertically at the cabinet front or rear, and the distribution cabinet adds Class C surge protection, a 10-inch display and branch-circuit monitoring.

How does fire protection work in the enclosed aisle?

A fire-rated skylight in the aisle roof opens under gravity, allowing the gas fire-suppression system to discharge directly into the cold aisle area — safe and reliable. Fire linkage includes sound-and-light alarms, smoke sensors and temperature-humidity sensors.

How are the aisle doors and monitoring managed?

The enclosed track-mounted double doors open by remote control, card, password or sensor. The monitoring system covers centralized management, access control, video surveillance, asset management and battery monitoring, accessible via remote web, a local 10-inch touchscreen or an optional mobile app, with alarms pushed by WeChat, SMS, email and phone.
