42U Adds Rittal's Liquid Cooling and PDU Products to GSA Schedule
Broomfield, CO - April 25, 2008 -- 42U,
the nation's largest, vendor-independent
valued-added reseller of data center
infrastructure solutions today announced that is
has added Rittal to their GSA schedule.
With this addition, 42U's government customers
can now have access to the industry's leading
modular, scalable and comprehensive IT
infrastructure solutions including enclosures,
high-density cooling solutions and power
distribution units. Included in the agreement
are the following:
Rittal Liquid Cooling Package (LCP)
Developed to remove high levels of wasted heat
from server enclosures, this high density
cooling solution utilizes air/water heat
exchangers to provide uniform, effective and
affordable cooling for servers and similar IT
equipment. The special horizontal airflow of the
Rittal LCP represents an adaptation of this
widespread cooling principle, providing cooled
air uniformly throughout the complete height of
the enclosure.
- LCP Standard
Designed to be installed next to an 80" (2000
mm) high by 40"/48" (1000/1200 mm) deep TS8
server cabinet, the LCP Standard can accommodate
up to three air/water exchanger modules that can
be hot swapped if needed. When fully loaded with
three air/water exchanger modules the LCP
Standard can provide up to 68,243 BTU (20KW) of
useful cooling with a maximum air volume of 1766
cfm (3000 m3/hr). Don't have an immediate need
for that much heat removal? Start with one
exchanger module then add more as needed.
- LCP Plus
Using the same footprint and basic design as the
Standard, the LCP Plus includes six fan modules
that work in concert with the included heat
exchanger to increase the useful cooling
capacity to 95,540 BTU (28 kW). The LCP Plus is
designed for cabinets 80" (2000 mm) high by 48"
(1200 mm) deep and has a maximum air volume of
2825 cfm (4800 m3/hr). The LCP Plus (and LCP
Standard) can be bayed to a single cabinet or
between two enclosures. It is also possible to
put a pair of LCPs on either side of especially
hot cabinets for applications where extreme heat
loads are present.
- LCP Extend
Ideal for retrofitting, the LCP Extend is
installed on the rear door of problem racks. The
LCP Extend can be ordered for use on cabinets
from other manufacturers. If you are already
using Rittal cabinets, the unit comes mounted
into the proper replacement rear door which
allows you to simply swap it out with the
existing rear door.
Rittal
Power Distribution Units (PDU)
- Metered PDU
Metered PDU products provide reliable power
distribution for all the devices in your
equipment cabinet, from 5,000 to 20,000
Watts. Metered units are available in 20 or
30 amps, 120 Volts or 208/240 Volts
single-phase, and 208 Volts three-phase.
Local input current monitoring allows the
installation engineer to verify the combined
load on the circuit or phase.
- Smart PDU
The Smart PDU products provide reliable
power distribution combined with remote
power and environmental monitoring. Use the
network interface to view power, temperature
and humidity levels via a Web browser, or
receive SNMP-based alarms when conditions
exceed defined thresholds.
- Switched PDU
Switched PDU products are Flagship PDU's
with remote monitoring and management,
including reboot commands for connected
servers and network equipment. The Switched
PDU products provide complete lights-out
management of a data center and remote
branch office. Switched PDU's combine remote
configuration and management with power
distribution and power and environmental
monitoring.
Rittal TS8 Modular Industrial Enclosure
A revolutionary system designed specifically
for demanding industrial applications.
Featuring a 16- fold tubular frame and
multi-level mounting, the
TS8 server
rack boasts unsurpassed strength and
flexibility. The robust tubular frame can
hold weight loads up to 1,500 lbs on the
mounting panel. The 25 mm hole pattern
allows components and accessories to be
mounted in three directions -- by height,
width and depth - which provides maximum
space utilization (up to 30% more available
space than traditional NEMA style enclosures
of equal dimension). The symmetrical frame
design makes suiting in a row, into a corner
or even back-to-back simple
