The separation of cold and hot airflow in data centers is one of the basic methods of increasing cooling systems efficiency. Our aisles are available in a number of different configurations – cold, hot, direct chimney exhaust or as free-standing. A significant advantage of the corridors we supply is their 0% to 100% need for fitting with IT racks. They can be built around any device (IT racks, row based cooling units, UPS, tape drives, supercomputers), even in existing data centers.
