Proven solutions
We regularly conduct independent tests to guarantee that our customers receive only the best solutions that ensure optimal energy efficiency. We continue to innovate and improve our solutions, and we undergo rigorous air and smoke testing to ensure performance. At Minkels, we strive to provide the highest standards so you can rely on the efficiency and reliability of your data center.
The requirements in the area of energy efficiency are particularly high for server cabinets and aisle containments. After all, IT equipment generates a lot of heat that needs to be dissipated efficiently. To function as effectively as possible, IT equipment must be properly cooled. The more efficient the cooling process, the more reliably your IT equipment will work, and the less energy your data center will require to operate.
The Nexpand platform is specially designed to optimize energy efficiency in your data center. By reducing energy consumption, data centers not only save money but also reduce their environmental impact.
With the support of a testing company specialized in airflow measurements, we have calculated that investing in cabinet airflow packages in a data center with 4x inrow coolers and 18 cabinets producing 5kW of heat load each can easily save EUR 2.000,- on annual bases on energy savings alone. ROI of the investment is as quick as 18,5 months. The economic lifetime of an IT cabinet can easily reach 20 years. It means your IT cabinet will continue to save money well over 18 years after its initial deployment.
