Facility Power
The facility power system provides power to all of the critical and non-critical
components within the datacenter. It consists of a single power path with N UPS
to achieve a Tier 1 redundant architecture. An optional generator has been
added to provide additional availability in the event of an extended power
outage.
The facility power system has a QED-2 switchboard with an 800 amp main bus
that feeds both the IT space and facility cooling UPSs. A 225 kVA Galaxy VM

Facility Cooling
The facility cooling design is comprised of a chilled water cooling system in the
IT space, integrated with a single chilled water loop with N+1 pumps in the
mechanical space and a single packaged chiller outdoors. Altogether, they form
a Tier 1 architecture.
The facility cooling contains a 232 kW air-cooled water chiller with a free-cooling
system. Economization is achieved with dry coolers integrated within the chiller
to save energy during favorable outdoor conditions.
The piping architecture feeds room-based Uniflair chilled water CRAHs in the IT
space. It also feeds a room-based Uniflair CRAH in the electrical space. More
information on the cooling configuration is provided in the IT space section of

IT Space
A single power distribution path from the electrical space powers the Tier 1 IT
space, consisting of 25 kW of critical cooling load and 170 kW of critical IT load,
fed by PDUs in an N configuration.
61 NetShelter racks of an average 2.8 kW per rack density are arranged in a
highly scalable and adaptable “pod” fashion. Smaller starting loads can be
supported by making adjustments such as reducing the number of IT pods or
decreasing the capacity of the UPS. Likewise, larger loads can be reached by
using a “step and repeat” approach with this design as the baseline. This
flexibility drives efficiency and defers capital expenditure until needed.
Each pod is powered by floor-mount modular PDUs. Each rack is configured
