Scalable Solution for Critical
Environments
InRow Advantages
The row-based solution improves energy efficiency and cooling ability in a number of ways. First, the InRow RP draws
air directly from the hot aisle, allowing the InRow RP to take advantage of higher heat transfer efficiency due to higher
temperature differences. It can then discharge room temperature air directly in front of the servers it is cooling. This
increases energy efficiency by allowing the chiller to operate at higher leaving water temperatures. Placing the cooling
unit in the row enables the unit to operate at higher return and supply air temperatures, yielding 100% sensible capacity.
This significantly reduces the need for humidification.
Scalable for High Density
The predictable performance of the row-based architecture makes it well suited for high density applications. The focus
on heat removal instead of cold air delivery is the key to making this approach scalable. The modular design of the InRow
RP allows it to be easily added in the row as the demand for cooling increases.
The additional benefit of the row-based architecture is the ability to add hot aisle containment. Containing the hot aisle
further reduces any chance of hot and cold air streams mixing. This provides ultimate predictability and allows the cooling
capacity to be matched to the IT heat load.

Modular ceiling tiles and doors can be used to enclose the hot aisle. This increases the densities that can be handled in a
single rack enclosure by eliminating mixing of hot and cold air streams. This method, called load neutralization, removes
the heat from the hot aisle, cools it, and then returns it to the surrounding room area at or slightly below room temperature.
The warmer return air temperatures that are achieved in this application increase the capacity of the air conditioner.
Use of modular ceiling tiles across a 914.4 mm (3 ft) hot aisle that connects two opposite rack enclosures makes
expansion quick and simple. Expansion kits, with necessary ceiling tile and all baying hardware, can be ordered to
increase the size of the hot aisle by one rack on each side. The end doors can be easily removed and re-attached for
expansion.
The enclosed hot aisle prevents any warm return air from mixing with cold supply air. In effect, all surrounding room air
can act as supply air to the system. The hot aisle containment system is beneficial in any environment. It can be deployed
quickly in any controlled space without expensive additions to the infrastructure, such as raised floor or ductwork.
