Passive thermal protection

Data centres

Limit unwanted heat transfer.

Space-saving insulation for racks, aisles and modular enclosures. Designed to complement air and liquid cooling.

Application visualisations, not customer installations.

Three applications. One thermal barrier.

Control heat transfer where space is limited, from rack panels to the building envelope.

01Inside the rack

Keep heat within its intended zone.

Thin insulation within rack sidewalls limits heat transfer to neighbouring equipment and helps control surface temperatures. Airflow, coolant connections and service access stay clear.

Compact thermal separation for air- and liquid-cooled racks.

02Across the aisle

Strengthen hot and cold separation.

Add insulation to solid aisle sidewalls and roof panels to reduce heat transfer between hot and cool zones. It complements air sealing without obstructing server airflow.

A thermal barrier alongside your airflow containment.

03Around the module

Reduce the impact of outdoor heat and cold.

Insulated enclosure walls reduce external heat gain and internal heat loss, easing the load on climate control. Warmer interior surfaces in cold conditions can also help limit condensation.

A more stable indoor environment, alongside HVAC and humidity control.
