HVAC

Unlike the typical data center, all of our critical infrastructure is housed underground within the facility. This keeps our systems safe from any external forces and provides our clients with added security and peace of mind.

The InfoBunker HVAC Plant rests within its own secure zone within the facility surrounded by a foot of reinforced concrete and secured with steel doors. With this additional protection, the HVAC plant and chilling loop work tirelessly to maintain the proper environment for computing needs.

Three DX units and two dry coolers comprise the key cooling features of the colo facility. Each of these systems has the ability to individually carry the entire building load with capacity to spare. For maximum efficiency, the facility is switched to dry cooling for 6 to 8 months out of the year. Dual loops, multiple points of redundancy and segregation within the systems keep InfoBunker online with 100% reliability year round, in any situation.

InfoBunker utilizes a mixture of InRow and Down-flow units sized to meet the demands of the space on the data floor as well as private rooms. These units are fed by multiple chilled water loops allowing for proper loading, redundancy and maximum efficiency. In the event of a critical failure of the loop piping or valve system, an emergency N+2 redundant fan-driven overhead forced air system can be used in order to maintain operations for clients while repairs are made. Temperature and humidity are controlled within the 2009 ASHRAE standards as set forth for data center environments.
