Health care facilities, and hospitals in particular, collect huge amounts of electronic data on patients, from general medical records to digital images, to insurance and billing information. And the growth in data collection is expected to increase, particularly as more providers move to electronic medical records, as well as offer complex digital services, such as genetic mapping, remote medicine, and video surgery.

With this expansion comes the need for more precise cooling equipment, which is designed to keep the data safe through critical temperature, humidity, and air quality control.
