Data Center Cooling

An HVAC cooling tower expels heat from a chiller. Large buildings such as convention centers, hotels, hospitals, universities and data centers use cooling towers as part of their heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning systems.

Keeping debris, scale and biological growths out of a data center’s cooling system is critical to maintaining energy efficiency and water conservation, and to protecting the data center itself.

An effective filtration system lowers the particulate levels in the cooling water, which directly reduces fouling. Because microbiological organisms will feed on organic particulates, reduction of particulates also corresponds directly with a reduction in biological growth. It follows that filtration will prevent corrosion that occurs as a result of microbiological growth, and scaling which occurs as a byproduct of fouling and corrosion.
