  • What is the data center rating and its evaluation method
    Aug 03, 2023
    What is a Data Center Rating? The data center rating system was designed by the Uptime Institute to classify data centers based on several criteria primarily related to uptime, fault tolerance, and availability. The rating system is designed to allow each company to independently understand how a particular data center will perform according to its needs and what can be expected from that data center. Uptime Institute divides the core standards into one to five levels. This global standard allows organizations to compare any two data centers around the world. The final certification highlights the design, structure and operation of the data center. What is a Tier 1 data center? A Tier 1 data center is the most basic type of data center. Tier 1 data centers have dedicated IT service space and equipment located outside the office, uninterrupted power supply, backup power usually provided by internal generators, and computing equipment cooling equipment. Tier 1 data centers also have systems, protocols, and equipment in place to ensure they can remain up and running during normal business hours (such as nights and weekends). What is a Tier 2 data center? Tier 2 data centers have redundant components that provide additional capacity over Tier 1 data centers. These components include diesel generators to provide backup power, pumps or chillers for more reliable additional equipment cooling, and specialized UPS modules to provide reliable power that eliminates voltage dips and spikes. What is a Tier 3 data center? Tier 3 data centers have systems, protocols, and equipment in addition to Tier 2 data centers, allowing personnel to perform upgrades, repairs, and/or changes without shutting down any equipment. Since everything is available simultaneously, teams can make any changes as needed without disrupting service to customers/end users. What is a Tier 4 data center? Tier 4 data centers are equipped with fault tolerance mechanisms on the basis of Tier 3 data centers. The idea is that data centers can stop and prevent certain problems from happening in the first place. The goal of a Tier 4 data center is to provide continuous support and service under any circumstances, and it is the highest level that the Uptime Institute classifies a data center. What is a Tier 5 data center? Tier 5 certification means the data center has met the highest standards for uptime and resiliency in the market today. Level 5 certification was originally developed by colocation and cloud services provider Switch in 2017, and is technically distinct from the four core levels proposed by the Uptime Institute. What is the highest level? According to the Uptime Institute, no level is "better" than another. They believe that businesses should choose a data center that meets their specific needs regarding cost, availability, and more. What is Uptime Institute? Uptime Institute bills itself as an independent advisory body that provides third-party guidance and oversight to the data center industry. Its core mission includes supervising data centers and issuing certificates to give end users of data centers a reason to decide which data center to use. Like 451 Research, Uptime Institute is also a division of The 451 Group.

  • What are the benefits of using precision air conditioning in the server room?
    Jul 28, 2022
    Air conditioners can regulate temperature, humidity and air cleanliness, so air conditioners are used in many industries, but for some specific functions of the room can not do, need to install precision air conditioning, such as machine rooms, laboratories, instrument rooms, museum storage rooms and other places. Precision air conditioners are also known as constant temperature and humidity air conditioners, which can accurately control the humidity and temperature of the environment. Precision air conditioners are characterized by large air supply volume, small enthalpy difference, high sensible heat ratio and high air purification rate. The humidity change rate is less than 10% RH/h (when the humidity is set at 40%-60%) and the humidity can be accurate to ±3%, and the temperature change rate is less than 5℃/h (when the temperature is set at 15℃-30℃) and the temperature can be accurate to ±0.5℃. The design life of precision air conditioning can reach 10 years, continuous operation time up to 86,400 hours, the average failure-free rate reached 25,000 hours, the better maintenance of precision air conditioning can run about 15 years. The benefits of using precision air conditioning in the server room are mainly as follows. 1. High temperature constancy. The high-speed operation of the equipment in the server room will bring a large amount of heat, in order to maintain the normal operation of the equipment, it is necessary to control the equipment in the state of constant temperature environment. If the temperature of the room can not be constant, it is easy to cause the electronic components of the equipment to reduce the life, when there is a high ambient temperature brought about by the local overheating of the equipment, will cause the equipment to burn or downtime. 2. High humidity constancy. The humidity of the environment in the server room affects the service life of the equipment and brings safety hazards. If the humidity of the room is too high, the low-temperature environment will appear too much condensation, dripping on the equipment to cause burn or even fire; if the humidity of the room is too low, after the air becomes dry, it is easy to generate static electricity, which will also cause certain dangers. 3. High air cleanliness. There are many precision instruments and electrical components in the server room, fine dust can easily lead to short circuits. Precision air conditioning has a better ability to filter air impurities, the air sent into the room are clean, reducing dust scattered on the equipment components, triggering equipment short-circuit, overheating, and the phenomenon of data errors. 4. Air supply volume. Precision air conditioning equipment are relatively large, through a special air duct for air treatment after feeding, in the face of heat dissipation is relatively large electronic equipment without sufficient air volume is difficult to achieve uniform cooling of equipment, and precision air conditioning has more than ordinary air conditioning more than 1 times the volume of large air supply, can quickly pump away the heat in the room, to achieve the purpose of rapid cooling equipment. In short, ordinary air conditioning is facing the living environment of personnel, for the server room, heat dissipation is relatively large, the higher demand for air conditioning heat dissipation; cooling the continuous working time is relatively long, almost all 24 hours in a row; the temperature should be controlled between 22 ℃ -24 ℃; the humidity should be controlled between 50% ± 5%; the cleanliness should be controlled in ASHRAE 20% +, the more accurate the control is the better The more precise the control is, the better the control is; to cope with the outdoor ambient temperature is also stronger, can withstand -35 ℃ to -42 ℃ environment, for the above conditions precision air conditioning can do, ordinary air conditioning can not meet. Precision air conditioning to ensure constant temperature, constant humidity, constant cleanliness and long life of the server room.

  • What causes the low pressure alarm in the server room air conditioner?
    May 13, 2022
    A data center server room has a high voltage alarm, check the machine alarm logs in a total of three categories: First, low supply voltage does not start. Low power supply voltage does not start is often due to voltage reduction or phase failure, low supply voltage, resulting in 24v transformer output voltage is insufficient; condenser 24v AC contactor can not work. The specific need to use a multimeter to test to determine. If necessary, equip with grid regulator. Compressor failure alarm is one of the most common alarms in the server room precision air conditioning, in the refrigeration system, the high voltage controller is set at 350psig, the machine is running, when the high voltage value reaches this limit, the high voltage alarm is generated. To make the compressor start again, it must be manually reset; however, before pressing the reset button, the cause of the high pressure must be identified in order to make the machine run normally. Second, the compressor high pressure alarm. For refrigeration systems, it is recommended to clean the surface of the condenser dust and dirt, but care should be taken not to damage the copper tubes and fins. If the alarm still appears after maintenance, the alarm can be eliminated by performing maintenance in the system menu, maintenance cycle. Third, the humidifier refrigeration system needs maintenance. It is usually caused by an obstacle in the refrigeration cycle, such as too high Freon pressure, too low pressure or the resulting overheating of the press and other reasons. The specific need to use the pressure gauge to test to determine. For the humidifier and refrigeration system requires maintenance of the alarm processing, humidifier normal operation process, mineral particles and other deposits will gather on the humidifier pan. These deposits must be regularly maintained and removed to ensure efficient operation of the humidifier. As water sources around the world have different characteristics, so the time of cleaning gradually should be decided by each place itself. It is recommended that monthly maintenance checks be performed on precision air conditioners in data center rooms (if necessary, they should be cleaned monthly). By draining the pan (removing the vertical pipe), disconnecting the drainage pipe coupling and removing the set screws at both ends of the pan, the deposits on the pan of the humidifier can be easily removed.

  • How to innovate the planning and design of data center under the trend of "double carbon"?
    May 13, 2022
    With the development of digital economy, the scale of data center industry has further expanded and energy consumption has increased rapidly. In order to deal with the relationship between development and energy saving and ensure the realization of the "double carbon" target, data centers are constantly exploring the potential of energy saving and emission reduction in terms of construction mode, technology, standard and renewable energy utilization. The planning and design, as the beginning of data center construction, is an essential part of promoting energy saving and emission reduction in data centers. The carbon emissions of data centers are mainly due to the consumption of electrical energy, and the total electricity consumption of China's data centers reached 200 billion KWh in 2020, accounting for more than 2.7% already. It is expected that the proportion will double to 4.05% by 2025. In this case, to reduce carbon emissions, it is necessary to further increase the proportion of new energy use. The data center has made various attempts in planning and design, and there are innovative practices, such as the application of "source-net-load storage", which can reasonably plan energy storage through the synergy between the supply side and the use side; for example, the CenturyLink Foshan data center energy storage pilot project is the first time in China to successfully apply new large-scale energy storage technology to a large data center. For example, the CenturyLink Foshan data center energy storage pilot project is the first time in China to successfully apply new large-scale energy storage technology to a large data center. Data center energy storage systems show a good development trend, however, it should also be noted that there are still numerous difficulties in the development of energy storage systems. Therefore, the problem needs to be solved by considering the following points: First, the combination of planning, design and technology promotes the reduction of energy consumption of the cooling system. Data centers generate a lot of heat during operation, and in order to ensure the normal operation of cabinets, cooling and heat dissipation are required, and a significant portion of data center energy consumption is used for this purpose. Through planning and design, choosing a reasonable refrigeration system is an effective means to reduce energy consumption and PUE, and the influencing factors include site selection, building scale and mode, technology maturity, etc. Second, strengthen planning and renovation to promote energy saving in built data centers.In order to achieve energy saving and emission reduction in data centers, the state and many localities have set goals such as energy efficiency development. For example, the "Implementation Plan for the Coordinated Development of Data Centers in Beijing (2021-2023)" issued by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Economy and Information Technology proposes that, according to the general idea of "four batches", by closing a batch of functionally outdated data centers, integrating a batch of scattered data centers, transforming a batch of high-consumption and inefficient data centers, building a batch of new The goal is to build the world's leading high-end data center development cluster with intensification, greening and intelligence. In order to further realize energy saving and carbon reduction, data centers must take relevant factors into consideration in planning and design, including energy storage and cooling. With the maturity of technology and the improvement of related solutions, data centers will further promote energy saving and emission reduction through planning and design.
