Dynamic Cooling Control Provides Substantial Data Center Energy Savings
Ongoing Benefits Provided Through Cooling Infrastructure Visualization and Equipment Performance Benchmarking
EL CERRITO, Calif. — Vigilent®, a provider of dynamic cooling management™ systems, announced that it has worked with Avnet Inc., a leading global technology distributor, to improve the cooling energy efficiency of Avnet's North American data center.
Avnet deployed Vigilent technology in its 13,000-square-foot data center as part of a large IT management initiative to significantly conserve energy and reduce environmental impact at the 25-year-old facility. As part of this project, Avnet used Vigilent to gain a more granular understanding of cooling throughout the data center floor, maintain consistent temperatures, improve cooling redundancy, and automatically control computer room air conditioners (CRACs) for maximum efficiency.
