Together with other members of Keppel Group (Keppel DC REIT and Keppel Capital), Keppel Data Centres owns and operates a global portfolio of more than 26 data centres located in key data centre hubs across Asia Pacific and Europe.
The contractor approached Armcor to provide the right unit to suit the needs of the data centre.
The project was for supply, installation, and commissioning of two (2) rooftop packaged Humidity and Temperature Control units, to provide a practical solution for temperature and humidity control.
Standard equipment configuration includes EC plug fans, stainless steel drain tray and associated controls. With nominal capacities of 4,800 l/sec, and cooling capacities of 170kW, the HTC units were project specific, designed for the appropriate climatic conditions.
Along with the HTC units, Precise Comfort Control PCC-30C, High Level Controller (Building Management Systems (BMS)) was also supplied to control multiple building services from one central location. These Building Management Systems (BMS) are becoming more and more common place in commercial buildings.
With the new equipment installed the data centre can rest for years to come with an efficient system to fulfil the requirements.
