790 kW, Tier 4, Chilled Water, 20000 ft
Facility Power
The facility power system supplies power to all of the critical and non-critical
components within the data center. The architecture used in this electrical
design is a dual path with 2N UPS and 2N generators. Switching between
generator power and utility is achieved using a programmable logic controller
(PLC). A 3200 amp bus feeds PZ4 electrical and mechanical switchboards. In
the electrical room, UPSs are configured down-stream of the switchboards.
Two Symmetra MW units configured to 2N redundancy provide 1200 kW of
critical power to the IT room with 15 minutes of runtime. Valve regulated lead
acid (VRLA) batteries are housed in an isolated battery room. Two Galaxy 5000

Facility Cooling
The mechanical design utilizes chilled water as the primary medium for heat
dissipation. The architecture consists of dual chilled water loops. The cooling
system contains four 1196 kW water-cooled chillers in a 2(N+1) redundant
configuration. Water-side economization is achieved with a plate & frame heat
exchanger to save energy during favorable outdoor conditions.
In order to extend availability of chilled water during a power outage, redundant
7000 gallon water storage tanks provides 7 minutes of continuous cooling.
The piping architecture of the mechanical system feeds row-based InRow RC
CRAHs in the IT space. It also feeds room-based CRAHs in the electrical and
battery rooms. More information on the cooling configuration is provided in the
IT space section of this document.

IT Space
The IT capacity of this design is 790 kW. The design is highly scalable and
adaptable; it can be configured to support IT loads within a range. Smaller
starting loads as low as 200 kW can be supported by making adjustments such
as reducing the number of IT pods or decreasing the quantity of UPS modules.
Likewise, this design can be used as a baseline for larger loads as high as 2370
kW by using a step and repeat approach to the design. This flexibility drives
efficiency and defers capital expenditure until needed.
The IT space design specifies all of the physical infrastructure systems, as well
as their physical arrangement/spacing, required to meet the overall design’s
performance attributes. This includes racks, PDUs, rack power distribution,

Good design and quality construction alone do not ensure a highly available &
efficient data center. Data centers require on-going monitoring and management to
ensure the facility lives up to its design intent. StruxureWare for Data Centers is a
software management suite designed to collect and manage data about a data
center’s assets, resource use, and operational status throughout the life cycle of the
facility. This information is then distributed, integrated, and applied in ways that help
managers optimize the data center’s performance and meet IT, business, and
service-oriented goals. From IT assets to racks, rows, rooms and buildings,
StruxureWare for Data Centers delivers the right information to the right users at the
right time.
Control level: Experts, on site or remotely, can control process performance and
ensure business continuity in real time, while tracking energy consumption in a highly
critical and secure environment.
Operations level: Functional managers can optimize operations, energy, and assets
through smart analytical tools, often spanning multiple sites.
Enterprise level: C-level executives can drive their sustainability strategy efficiently,
choosing the best scenario that meets their business objective to conserve
enterprise-wide resources.
StruxureWare for Data Centers allows for flexibility when requirements and
implementation strategies change over time. StruxureWare software applications
and suites simplify integration time, improve reliability, enhance visibility to energy
information, and streamline operational efficiency.
