Coolcentric Teams with SynapSense

June 09, 2010

Coolcentric, a division of Vette Corp, has teamed up with SynapSense Corporation, provider of wireless instrumentation solutions for data centers, to deliver energy monitoring and management to data centers through its Professional Services Organization.

Coolcentric Professional Services (CPS) provides extensive expertise in the integration, deployment and support of energy efficient thermal solutions for data centers of any size.

Coolcentric’s Environmental Monitoring System (EMS) will feature the SynapSense Data Center Monitoring and Energy Management Solution.

“SynapSense has developed an enterprise-level operating platform for the world’s leading data centers and we are pleased that Coolcentric has incorporated our leading technology into its Environmental Monitoring System,” said Peter Van Deventer, CEO of SynapSense, in a statement.

Officials with Coolcentric said that EMS provides immediate visibility to critical locations, processes and equipment within the data center or datacom facility.

According to company officials, EMS solution which is comprised of sensor nodes, gateways, and server platforms, is based on a broad range of innovative technologies that provide unique advantages to users.

Using EMS, data center operators are able to assess current operating conditions in real-time. With enhanced monitoring and alerts, users can identify opportunities for efficiency improvements and mitigate the risk of potential issues.

“SynapSense is the perfect complement to Coolcentric’s LiquiCool solutions, creating a comprehensive solution portfolio to drive energy efficiency and thermal management throughout the data center,” said Joe Capes, general manager, Coolcentric.

Capes said that Coolcentric’s Environmental Monitoring System provides data center managers with a window into the efficiency and increased performance derived from using passive liquid cooling.

EMS, company officials said, eliminates risks commonly associated with hardware and software installation. The non-invasive installation process is accomplished without disruption to data center power or operations.

Moreover, the Coolcentric EMS solution easily configures and interfaces with existing equipment for rapid integration and deployment.

EMS wireless sensor devices attach to enclosures within minutes and can be repositioned as needed to meet unique customer data center needs. Software installation requires only one server to connect to the EMS network.
