Hot & Cold Aisle Containment Systems

AMCO’s Hot Aisle and Cold Aisle Containment Systems prevent air mixing and establishes separation of hot exhausted air and cold supplied air. This results in efficiently cooling the equipment and not the room. With these air separation paths in place, the aisle containment systems can deliver a consistent inlet temperature within ASHRAE A1 recommended ranges, providing dramatic savings in capital and operational costs year after year.

Cold Aisle

Utilizing our proprietary aluminum framing system and clear UL rated PVC panels that shrink at 130 degrees; a ceiling completely encloses the cold aisle. This solution forces all of the cold air to pass through the electronic components in the rack, ensuring that the cold air does not mix with the hot air anywhere else in the data center.
