Cold Aisle Containment
These photographs show our cold aisle containment system. Cold aisle containment prevents cold air mixing with warm air. This improves the efficiency of the air conditioning system.

Our customer racks are laid out in 40 rack aisles.

This photograph shows a roof detail for the cold aisle containment system.

The meet me area contains the patching racks and the telecoms infrastructure equipment.

These are the sliding lockable doors that protect the Meet-Me area.

Jerry,
Your cold aisle containment system is almost spot on identical to something I was looking at doing in one of our facilities.
How did you deal with the fire suppression and the issue of getting the gas into the cold aisle? From the photos it looks like the gas supply is well above the racks, and probably above the ‘roof’ of the cold aisle.
Cheers.

There’s an identical fire suppression layout under the floor BobP.
