Dec. 18, 2014: McKinstry, Sabey Build Data Center Environment Simulator
Allows Data Center Owners to Simulate Actual Operating Conditions Prior to Installing Servers
SEATTLE — McKinstry, a design-build-operate-and-maintain firm, and Sabey Data Centers, a leading owner, developer, and operator of data center properties, have partnered to develop a product called the Mobile Commissioning Assistant for data center owners. The patent-pending device allows owners to accurately simulate actual operating conditions prior to installing servers in new data centers. According to the companies, owners can expect a full payback of the cost of the device after four uses, with the savings accumulated by not having to rent traditional heating banks to test new data center spaces.
“Our team is always developing methods to improve operating efficiencies for our clients, and the innovative Mobile Commissioning Assistant product is another way we will accomplish this with our data center projects,” said Dean Allen, CEO of McKinstry. “Sabey Data Centers was the ideal partner for us with their extensive knowledge of the data center property market and the strong partnership McKinstry has built with them over the years.”
