Prefabricated power and cooling modules for data centres

Supplied by Schneider Electric IT Business on Monday, 23 March, 2015


Standardised, pre-assembled and integrated data centre facility power and cooling modules are at least 60% faster to deploy and they provide a first cost savings of 13% or more compared to traditional data centre power and cooling infrastructure.

Facility modules, also referred to as containerised power and cooling plants in the data centre industry, allow data centre designers to shift their thinking from a customised ‘construction’ mentality to a standardised ‘site integration’ mentality.

This white paper compares the cost of both scenarios, presents the advantages and disadvantages of each and identifies which environments can best leverage the facility module approach.
