The global data center market, projected to reach $519 billion by 2025, highlights the strategic role of these infrastructures in supporting digital transformation. However, design and operational challenges, particularly in slab-floor (non-raised floor) data centers, require new approaches to meet optimal cooling demands. As a Distributor Cooling Data Center, Climanusa offers innovative cooling solutions specifically designed to enhance operational efficiency for data centers in Indonesia.


Why Are Non-Raised Floors the New Choice?

Traditionally, data centers used raised floors to optimize cooling airflow through perforated tiles. However, advanced cooling technologies now allow for slab-floor designs, offering several key advantages:

  1. Cost Efficiency: Reduces the need for specialized materials and engineering.
  2. Faster Construction: Accelerates build timelines by up to six months compared to raised-floor designs.
  3. Design Flexibility: Enables more versatile placement of cooling units in IT rooms and service corridors.

However, slab floors introduce new challenges, such as uneven airflow distribution, which can lead to increased server temperatures and hardware failure risks.


Cooling Technologies for Non-Raised Floors

Climanusa provides advanced cooling solutions for non-raised floor data centers, including:

1. Perimeter Chilled-Water Units

  • Top Discharge Design: Reduces air velocity for more even distribution.
  • Installation Flexibility: Can be placed in service corridors or main IT spaces.
  • Energy Efficiency: Delivers cooling capacity comparable to standard CRAH units but with lower energy consumption.

2. Thermal Wall Units

  • Horizontal Cooling: Directs airflow straight into the server room.
  • High Capacity: Supports high IT density with lower PUE.
  • Space Optimization: Leverages service corridors without affecting hot zones.

3. Custom Solutions

Climanusa also provides custom design services tailored to specific data center operator needs, ensuring seamless integration with existing building layouts and equipment.


Steps to Choose the Right Cooling Solution

  1. Evaluate Server Heat Density: Calculate the total cooling capacity required for IT equipment.
  2. Determine System Redundancy: Identify the number of units based on desired cooling redundancy levels.
  3. Analyze Airflow Distribution: Use Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations to verify temperature distribution under various load scenarios.
  4. Select the Right Product: Based on analysis, determine the best cooling solution for specific data center applications.

Benefits of Climanusa Cooling Solutions

  1. Energy Efficiency: Cutting-edge cooling technology reduces energy consumption by up to 25%.
  2. Sustainability: Supports ESG goals with a lower carbon footprint.
  3. Operational Reliability: Ensures even temperature distribution to prevent equipment overheating.
  4. Increased ROI: Operational cost savings accelerate return on investment.

Conclusion: Cooling Solutions for the Future of Data Centers in Indonesia

With the growing demand for digital infrastructure, non-raised floor data centers are a strategic choice for faster builds and optimized operational costs. Climanusa’s advanced cooling technologies empower data center operators to tackle these challenges with efficient, flexible, and sustainable solutions.
