Robust cooling design.

• Each data hall features a dedicated chilled water loop external to the building;
• N+1 chillers with free cooling capability for up to 80% of the year;
• Integration between multiple chiller loops provide for greater efficiency and N+2 chillers at full load;

• Chilled water loops and all valves are accessed externally to the technical area during maintenance which minimises risk to the technical space;
• All cooling control systems and circulation pumps are UPS supported to maintain supply management during failover and to expedite restart;
• Entire facility, including all mechanical functions, are supported by standby power generation.

Fire Detection and Suppression

Using world class fire detection and suppression systems that include:

• VESDA type smoke detection systems in all technical areas;
• Compartmentalised gaseous fire suppression system throughout the facility;
• Central fire alarm control integrated in BMS and monitored by an internal notification system and external service providers, with direct access to the local fire services;
• Local fire department briefed on facility specific protocols to minimise event occurrence and impact. Ongoing training and procedure development ensures the most efficient and accurate response to emergency situations.
