DAVIDSON, N.C. — Trane is expanding its portfolio of thermal management systems for data centers with a new computer room air handler (CRAH).
This cooling solution helps maintain optimal air circulation and temperature levels for servers and other electronic equipment to promote their uptime while reducing power consumption and energy demand, a press release from Trane Technologies said.
“We take a customer-centric approach to innovation, design, and services to create precise, custom solutions for unique operating needs and conditions,” said Steve Obstein, vice president and general manager for data centers at Trane Technologies. “Expansion of our airside offer gives our colo (co-locatation) and hyperscale customers greater flexibility for configuring custom systems and addresses the growing trend toward a single-source solutions provider.”
Equipped with the Symbio smart controller, Trane’s new CRAH solution offers a broad capacity range and customizable options, including reduced power consumption, exceptional cooling, and dependable performance, that help meet the specific needs of data centers, the press release said. Symbio allows for flexible leader designation and dynamic reassignment for up to 32 units, providing continuous operation and access to digital solutions for ongoing lifecycle management, the press release said.
