Problems solved by technology

This planning time ties up a lot of capital as IT, rack, power, and cooling needs to be pre ordered and then painstakingly assembled and tested on site.
This long lead time forces the customers to pre-build before the capacity is needed, if ever.
Conventional raised floors, CRAC (computer room air conditioning), chiller equipment and plumbing, UPS rooms, distribution rooms may all be pre-built, potentially stranding a lot of capital if this excess capacity is not used.

Abstract

A cooling container comprises a container housing with a chilled water storage tank including a first interface for receiving chilled water. The chilled water tank has a plurality of straight pipes joined by elbows connections to provide a folded path, the full path length being greater than the length of the container housing, and a second interface for outputting the chilled water. A number of interfaces within the container housing are configured to receive a chiller module or a free cool unit.
