Lightweight, durable, impact resistant, and thermal insulating, polycarbonate twinwall enables secure, easily scalable, and thermally regulated hot and cold aisle containment systems for data storage and processing. Where Cold Aisles are part of the room being protected, we try to include nozzles in the aisles wherever possible. Hot aisle and cold aisle containment are foundational concepts in data center design. It involves the use of physical barriers or enclosure at the end of server aisles to separate hot and cold airflows. However, without a physical barrier, you can still have wrap-around and bypass air, which can result in unacceptably high air temperat urr DCM cabinets with 4' or 6' aisles, and requires a uniform row.

Cold aisle containment (CAC) is a proven data center cooling strategy that creates physical barriers around cold air supply zones, preventing contamination from hot exhaust air and eliminating the energy-wasting effects of air mixing. Hot aisle and cold aisle containment are foundational concepts in data center design. While these concepts are not new, their successful implementation requires detailed planning, precise engineering, and thorough analysis to deliver maximum efficiency.

Cold aisle containment systems use doors at aisle ends, ceiling panels or lids above racks, and structural frames to create enclosed zones where cold supply air flows directly to IT equipment intakes. This method raises the temperature of the air returning to a Computer Room Air Con itioner (CRAC) unit, which allows the unit to operate more eficiently. With 35 years of operational experience, EDP designs, manufactures, and installs bespoke aisle containment systems that improve airflow management in Data Centre environments for retrofit, new build, and hyper-scale projects. The one-tool design allows for quick and easy installation, removal, and re-installation with exclusive Magswitch® technology — no drilling required.

The hot aisle /cold aisle data center layout was originated by IBM in 1992 and it is one of the oldest ways to save energy in the data center. Assuming a computer room is configured in such a way that either is an option, hot aisle containment may be seen as the better option because it has some thermal efficiency and ride-through advantages. However, because every computer room is unique, there is no one definitive solution. The HAC system directs the upward airflow to an AC return system such as a drop-ceiling void. The system simply aligns server fronts (air intakes) toward a shared cold aisle, and backs (exhausts) toward a shared hot aisle. Cold Aisle: Rows of racks face each other, forming a corridor where cool air is directed.
