OPTIMIZE FUNCTIONALITY
Fine-tune your airflow management and increase data center efficiency
Research continually shows that within a data center facility the mixing of hot and cold air should be separated through hot or cold aisle containment to make the operation of the data center more energy efficient.
Containment also allows the equipment to operate at ASHRAE TC 9.9 guidelines, which improves the critical equipment functionality, and uptime and increases energy efficiency.
Subzero Engineering’s containment accessories help optimize the functionality of the implemented hot and cold aisle containment. We provide customized solutions for data center facility airflow management needs. Our accessories accommodate hot aisle containment as well as cold aisle containment to create a total aisle containment solution.

SEEING IS BELIEVING
How Accessories Increase Data Center Containment Functionality
The diagram shows how Subzero’s airflow management solutions can be used effectively in directing hot and cold airflow within a data center. See details of specific products utilized in the sample configuration below.
Data Center Containment Accessory
Egg Crate Ceiling Grill
Our Egg Crate Ceiling Grill airflow management solution is an important tool in helping design an energy-efficient data center. It is designed to work with the natural properties of rising hot air.
The Subzero Engineering Egg Crate Ceiling Grille is used most effectively with hot aisle containment to allow hot IT equipment exhaust air to pass into the drop-ceiling void and be directed back to the AC unit. This allows for warmer, dryer air to return to the AC unit. As a result, the AC unit functions more efficiently and can provide increased cooling.
Data Center Containment Accessory
Blanking Panels
Blanking panels are an integral part of any data center airflow management solution.
When empty spaces in racks are left uncovered this allows by-pass airflow to create inner rack recirculation. This causes inconsistent temperature along the rack face and makes it difficult to manage a consistent temperature along the cold aisle. By using blanking panels to fill up those empty spaces we eliminate these issues. The Subzero blanking panels prevent the transfer of hot or cold airflow by occupying unused rack space at each U.
Our blanking panels are made from UL specifications that meet or exceed data center standards.
