We all know that a comprehensive data center server room construction project generally includes: comprehensive wiring, anti-static floor laying, shed roof wall decoration, partition decoration, UPS, special constant temperature and humidity air conditioning, server room environment monitoring system, fresh air system, water leakage detection, ground system, lightning protection system, access control, monitoring, fire protection, alarm, shielding engineering, etc.
It is very important to analyze the climate conditions of the new data center location. This will help determine the most appropriate cooling measures, which include water chillers, mechanical refrigeration air conditioning, natural air cooling, indirect air cooling, adiabatic cooling, etc., all of which are required for the data center facility to achieve its lower PUE target.
The number of racks determines the space requirements of a data center. A traditional IT rack has dimensions of 600x1000mm (width x depth), while a server room with 100 square meters of space can accommodate about 50 racks. Of course racks are available in other sizes, and knowing the size of the racks and the number of racks makes it easy to estimate the space required for your data center.
For a Tier 2 data center, deploying "N+1" architecture for power and cooling equipment redundancy is sufficient. However, for a Tier 3 data center facility, it will typically include "N+1" cooling equipment redundancy, 2N power supply redundancy with dual power supplies, and separate dual distribution racks. Therefore, knowing the tier of the data center can determine the redundancy design needed.
It is important to note that when designing the power capacity of a data center, it should be based on the average power density, not on the maximum power rating. It is the average power density of the racks multiplied by the number of racks that is the maximum IT load of the data center. Then, add the power of the data center's power systems, cooling systems and facilities such as switches and storage devices.
To avoid incurring expensive costs and to make the most of the power system so that the data center has appropriately sized power and space, it is wise to adopt a modular strategy that reduces costs without having to sacrifice flexibility for future expansion.
