Frequently Asked Questions about the
Coolcentric System

Do you have any installations where Data Center heat is reclaimed?

We have installations where return water from CRAC units is fed into the RDHx before returning to the chiller.

Are there published case studies about your system efficiency?

A 2008 case study by the Silicon Valley Leadership Group discusses the performance and efficiency of the RDHx along with other leading modular liquid cooling solutions. This study demonstrated a 10X improvement in efficiency using Coolcentric RDHx vs. air cooling, and a 3X improvement in efficiency comparing Coolcentric to next-in-class solutions. A second case study in 2010 confirmed the superior effeciency of passive rear door cooling.

Is Coolcentric's system EU RoHS compliant?

The RDHx is EU RoHS compliant. The Hoses Kits and CDU are not currently compliant, they are likely exempt from the regulations however a final determination has not been made at this time.

What energy savings will Coolcentric's solutions provide?

By reducing the amount of conventional perimeter cooling required and allowing for warmer chilled water temperatures, Coolcentric solutions delivers as much as 60% total cooling energy savings. Energy savings within the data center itself can approach 90% when compared to indoor cooling units.
