Schneider Electric Launches Second Generation InRow RC for Data Center Cooling
20 August 2014

Schneider Electric, a global player in energy management, has introduced the second generation of InRow RC in its product line for data center cooling needs. The second generation release comprises two new models that improve cooling efficiency by reducing power consumption and increasing capacity. The high temperature model, designed for optimal heat removal, leverages warmer water temperatures and outdoor ambient air temperatures to increase chiller efficiency, thus maximizing the hours of economization. Part of the Schneider’s InfraStruxure suite of solutions created for high density applications, InRow RC reduces the distance between the heat source and heat removal, eliminating the mixture of hot and cold air streams, thus improving overall cooling predictability. The solution features variable speed fans that reduce energy consumption during off -peak cooling periods or when the data center is partially loaded. This decreases data center energy consumption to match the demand of the heat load. With a user-friendly design, the InRow RC features an intuitive, 4.3-inch color touch screen display to provide fast, easy access to data. Additional key features include: 

  • Increased Cooling Capacity: Up to 40 kW (136,000 BTUH) and 1510 lps (3200 cfm) maximum airflow with conditions at 7.2°C EWT, 49°C RAT, 6.6°C ?T for the ACRC301S (standard temperature). Up to 60 kW (205,000 BTUH) and 1982 lps (4200 cfm) maximum airfl ow with conditions at 12.8°C EWT, 49°C RAT, 6.6°C ?T for the ACRC301H (high temperature). 
  • Improved Energy Efficiency: 1.0 kW at maximum operating condition for ACRC301S and 1.9 kW at maximum operating condition for the ACRC301H.
  • Condensate Management System: Ensures coil temperatures remain above the dew point by preventing condensation, a process achieved by recirculating coil water; compatible with the ACRC301H unit.
  • Intelligent Controls: Monitor and actively adjust cooling capacity to ensure proper server inlet temperatures and visibility into the operation and status of the unit.
  • Compatibility: The InRow RC is compatible with EcoAisle™ and Active Flow Controller. For more information please visit www.schneider-electric.com/us
