DC Insight - High Density Power Monitoring Solution

DC Insight - Power Monitoring is a solution which can be installed in an up-and-running data centre requiring zero down time. The solution utilized a split-core current transformer technology which can be clamped onto any live power feeds to get a accurate reading of the power ulitization characteristics for the feed.

Our solution will allow you to monitor Apparent Power, Real power, Reactive Power, Power Factor, RMS Voltage RMS Current and the Phase Angle of the feed.

With visability into these information, facility manager can now work on optimizing the power capacity of their data center with confidence. For example, facility will be able to:

Wire-Free Differential Air Pressure Measuring Device - Part of DC Insight Solution

We are working on re-branding our Wire-free RFID Environment Monitoring solution to "DC Insight". We have a couple more success cases in the past quarter and we received lots of positive feedbacks from our customers. As we work more closely with our customers, we are seeing demands in other area which is not necessary "environment monitoring". We are activily pursuing integration with other hardware to provide a more "holistic" monitoring for data centers, hence the new branding of "DC Insight". It is an exciting time at Quantum Data Systems. Our customers can be sure their investment is future proof and will continue to grow with their organization.

On another note, there is a new Differential Air Pressure sensor available with our DC Insight solution.

Why do we need to measure differential air pressure? As you probably know, air travels from high pressure zone to low pressure zone. In a data centre with a raise floor system, the cold air is forced out of the air plenum below the raise floor when there is a air pressure difference above and below the raise floor.

Wire-free fluid detection tag

Wire-free fluid detection. Very easy to install. The RFID tag transmit wirelessly through the 433 Mhz spectrum to our wire-free rfid environment monitoring solution. Our solution provide a map based view which allow operator to easily identify the correct location of the issue.

Because the solution is wire-free, there is no expensive cabling. In today's dynamically world of data centers, facility manager often find their few years old data center under capacity in terms of cooling.  They have to install new CRAC units in order to ensure enough supply of conditioned air to their servers by adding new CRAC.  Provisioning a new CRAC is painful enough, adding to the burden is running cables to monitor your CRAC. Having a wire-free monitoring solution allow facility manager and operators to add the new CRAC to the same wire-free monitoring solution.

Cold Aisle entrances showing 2 containment sliding doors

QDS has sucessfully deploy another retro-fitted data centre cold asile containment project. In this data centre, we deploy a full cold aisle containment completed with rack cap, aisle-end sliding door, airblock panels, Simplex Airblock Curtains and HotLok blanking panels.

The project was performed in a live data centre, and no down-time was required. This project consist of a total of 6 cold aisles.
