Raised Floor Grommets

Seal cable openings with KoldLok Raised Floor Grommets (often spelled: KoldLock)

KoldLok Grommets Cost Benefits:

• Increases existing cooling unit capacity
• Reduces the need to purchase additional cooling units
• Improves equipment reliability and extends equipment life
• Increases static pressure under the raised floor and improves cool air delivery through perforated tiles or floor grates
• Facilitates Cold Aisle/Hot Aisle best practices

Sealing cable openings with KoldLok products provide a cost-effective airflow and thermal management solution. KoldLok Raised Floor Grommets will:

• optimize your current cooling infrastructure
• mitigate equipment heat loads
• increase data center reliability

Your IT equipment is generating more heat than ever and the cost to cool that equipment is increasing. According to The Uptime Institute, Inc. electricity consumed by IT equipment is the primary driver of data center infrastructure costs. Based on measurements at multiple data centers, 50 - 80% of valuable conditioned air is not reaching the air intake of IT equipment due to unsealed cable openings. This lost air, known as bypass airflow, contributes to equipment hot spots, cooling unit inefficiencies, and increasing infrastructure costs. Sealing cable openings is an essential component of IT equipment reliability and availability.

By installing KoldLok Raised Floor Grommets, you can optimize the effectiveness of your existing cooling equipment and manage the increasing heat loads. The patented KoldLok sealing system specifically addresses bypass airflow and its detrimental effects on data center cooling.

The KoldLok Grommets offer many benefits:

Key Features:

• Robust, Penetrable Raised-Floor Seal- 92% to 100% seal with >25,000 filaments per grommet
• Minimum Sized Opening- Sized to pull 100amp assembly up through 12" under-floor
• Trims Sharp Edges in Floor Tile Cut Outs (Integral)-  NFPA requires metal edges be sealed for cables & people
• Dissipates Static Charge Buildup in Cables- 1 Giga Ohm resistance dissipates static charge thru floor
• Install It & Forget It- Eliminates labor other seals require to regularly police
• Several Models to Seal Most Raised Floor Openings- Openings Sealed: New / Existing / Large / Custom
• RoHS compliant
