Methodology
Equipment Layout and Room Schematics
- Survey and measure room, with all main items of equipment plotted
- All room structure dimensions, and positioning of server and networking cabinets
- Air-conditioning units, UPS’s, MDF, fire suppression, EPO
- Electrical distribution and switchgear, lighting and fire suppression
Datacentre Description and Report Including Photographs
- Detailed description including photographs of each element within the room Includes server cabs, electrical db schedules and description
- Full report providing detailed findings of our audit including the identification of risk and poor performance
Thermal Imaging
- Identify hotspots within cabinets, enabling preventative mesures to be undertaken to minimise hardware failure
- Identify hotspots within electrical infrastructure
- Identify other problematic areas, such as hidden heating pipes or air leakage
- Full report and recommendations
Temperature and relative humidity logging
- Provide graphical data highlighting ambient conditions within the Datacentre
- Minimum, maximum and average Temperature and relative humidity within the room over a period of time
- Full report and recommendations
Temperature and Relative Humidity Probing
- Temperature and relative humidity probing at specific points within the Datacentre
- At cabinet level, (at air intake and exhaust) and cooling/return air paths
- Full report and recommendations
Lighting Levels
- LUX readings taken at the relavent working plane to ensure the correct levels in accordance with the CIBSIE guidelines and Health & Safety working practises
Power Monitoring
- Full graphical analysis of power conditions over a set period of time
- Load per phase/ph, kW per phase/ph, kVA per phase/ph
- Summation and total loadings to all above, Power factors
- Snap shot harmonics analysis and waveform captures
- Full report and recommendations
