How do you cool a server rack? 19' SERVER COOLING REARCOOL RACK ACTIVE

19-inch server cabinets with built-in cooling.
Server cabinets with built-in cooling are extremely important in times of digitalization, Industry 4.0, and the permanent processing of huge amounts of data to protect IT equipment from possible damage due to high temperatures. At Lehmann-IT you will find a large selection of air-conditioned servers and network cabinets.

The RearCool-Rack Active integrates highly efficient EC fans and an MSR unit in the rear door heat exchanger. Especially with extremely high heat loads, the RearCool-Racks Active delivers unprecedented energy efficiency and cooling capacity. A cooling capacity of up to 55 kW per rack can be achieved.

Why should IT equipment be cooled?

Electricity flows through electronic IT equipment, which causes heat to be generated and radiated at the same time. In a server cabinet, there are usually several IT devices in a smaller space, which is why the heat from the servers, routers, and switches accumulates and can lead to a temperature that is too high for the equipment. If this temperature is not regulated by cooling, this can have considerable consequences for the devices and components. In addition to reduced performance, damage to the electronics or total failure can be consequences of permanently increased temperature influence. The purchase of a server cabinet with integrated air conditioning can therefore make perfect sense and even save costs in the medium to long term. IT equipment itself is already very expensive, which means that the replacement of the individual devices alone already incurs considerable expenses. Additional costs arise as a result of downtimes and possible data loss, which can exceed the acquisition costs even further. Air-conditioned server cabinets are therefore a sensible investment, especially for companies with large IT systems.

The different cooling systems

Integrated cooling systems have the task of precisely and reliably cooling the contents of a server cabinet. Inside the closed cabinets, the cooling system ensures that the cold and hot air is separated. Precisely these overheated spots, which can occur when the entire room is air-conditioned, are thus effectively eliminated. Especially in server cabinets where IT equipment is very close together, such as those found in large data centers, we recommend using an air-conditioned server cabinet, as heat can accumulate in these. There are various ways to cool server cabinets. Which integrated cooling system is right for you depends, of course, entirely on your requirements and the number of IT devices to be stored in the cabinet. If you need assistance in selecting the cabinet, we will, of course, be happy to help you. Basically, however, a distinction is made between active and passive cooling in 19-inch server enclosures.
