Capitoline LLP, an I.T.physical infrastructure design consultancy, has introduced a new fixed price data centre and computer room audit.
In the average computer room only one third of the incoming electricity makes its way to the computers; the rest is lost in power supply and cooling overheads.
Capitoline LLP, is a designer of data centres and computer rooms and has developed low energy designs based around the correct layout of equipment and racks to optimize air flow cooling.
When this is coupled with innovations such as air side economisers on the air conditioning, the electricity consumption can typically be reduced by over 30% compared to traditional layouts.
Capitoline's designs have found particular favour in the public sector and design and management contracts have recently been awarded to Capitoline from the University of Kent and Cheshire County council.
