RC IT Cooling solutions put great efforts on the use of high quality components such as the EC PUL
(polymeric ultralight) fans and the full DC inverter technology applied both on the compressors and fans.
This means that air conditioning systems are required to be more and more performing,
even if space available is still the same. In this sense, RC for IT Cooling range ensures
the best power/footprint ratio in the market.
RC for IT Cooling range features 360° versatility, both a s concerns capacities, as well as configurations.
Perimeter air conditioners, together with close-coupled solutions ensure effective cooling for low-medium

When hot and cold aisles are not enough to
prevent air mixing, Aisle Containment ensures
a perfect and homogeneous airflow to the
server inlet.
AISLE CONTAINMENT
This mix results in air flow with a temperature that reduces the
performance of the data center. If such air goes to the servers
and it is warmer than expected the servers may stop working
due to overheating.
If mixed air goes to the cooling system and it is cooler than air
coming out from the servers, heat exchange is reduced and
then global efficiency is affected.
