Mainline Computer Tate SmartAire® VAV Damper


SmartAire® dampers are electronically controlled, precisely adjusting the amount of air passing through an individual panel to meet the rack's current cooling needs. Four sensors mounted to the front of the rack control the VAV damper and, consequently, the airflow amount, maintaining the proper inlet air temperature on a rack-by-rack basis. This flexibility can help effectively cool facilities implementing virtualization, cloud computing and idle server shutdown strategies while saving more than 40 percent in fan energy.

SmartAire® adapts technologies readily found in commercial office applications to create a solution for controlling airflow delivery to the IT racks. Each panel and rack tandem can be thought of as an individual zone. SmartAire® measures the incoming air temperature at the face of the rack, adjusting the airflow to ensure that the temperature at the rack's face doesn't exceed the maximum allowable setpoint. Coupled with DirectAire®, and typical best practice strategies SmartAire® nearly eliminates bypass air and accounts for local temperature fluctuations.
