Cannon Data Campus operates with advanced cooling cooling for energy

systems to provide optimised PUE. saving

air, reducing chiller run time and saving energy consumption.

‘IT’ EQUIPMENT IS NOT PHYSICALLY CONTAMINATED

Importantly, ambient fresh air is used for Free Cooling but this
external air is not required to enter the Data Hall, therefore no
contamination by poor quality external air of sensitive server
and switch equipment is possible.

This hygienic feature prolongs the life of mission critical ‘IT‘
infrastructure and reinforces resilience; an invaluable benefit.

‘CANNON COOL’ WITH-IN -ROW COOLING UNITS

Cannon Cool With-In-Row Cooling (WIRC) Units substantially
improve cooling efficiency within the Data Hall, benefiting from
the close coupled air flow which avoids the need for long
ducting runs or the large powerful fan systems normally
required to move air through complex ducting, over extended
distance.

Space is also saved by the avoidance of such large ducting
systems, or air plenums.

QUIET, HIGH VOLUME AIR FLOW

The six large, hot swappable radial blowers equipping each
‘Cannon Cool’ are quiet and efficient, consuming only 600w at
100% and <100w at 25% load. 30kw max provides 25kw of
sensible cooling when used with chilled water at 12°C.

EFFICIENT – WATER BASED FREE COOLING MODE

Coupled with modern, high efficiency Chilled water plant,
compatible ambient conditions and free cooling coils a cooling
PUE of under 1.06 is possible. (#1)

DX: If a Direct Exchange ‘DX Gas’ system is desired rather than
water then multiple 25kw units can provide 18kw of sensible
cooling coupled to suitable external heat exchangers (#2) (No
Free Cooling).

AIR SIDE ECONOMISERS / FLOOD COOLING / FRESH AIR

Optionally the Cannon MDC hall may be built to encompass
large scale air handling systems with diverse free cooling. Air
may be delivered both under and over floor into the cold aisles.
The hot exhaust air being removed by overhead ductwork,
chimneys and low energy fans.

(#1) 8 x WIRC units @ 500w = 4kw, 3kw of water pumps and 5kw of free cooler fan energy = 212kw total for 200kw of sensible cooling – (free cooling metric based
on Southampton UK Winter period).
(#2) External DX heat exchanger must be within 70m of the WIRC DX air handler and <15M above or below.
