If you have attended a data center industry conference in the last year then you have no doubt heard large end users speak about how their facility has implemented evaporative cooling to lower their PUE and reduce their OPEX. The embracing of evaporative cooling technology by the data center industry has been a great way for corporations […]
In the continued interest of reducing overall OPEX more and more data center owners are seeking out energy efficient ways to cool their mission critical facilities. While there are definitely opportunities to save significant amounts of money through applying efficient solutions such as evaporative cooling, there are also dangers that need to be avoided. In other words, […]
United Metal Products has developed, manufactured, and deployed energy efficient cooling solutions for all types of facilities over their 30+ year history. In the last several years, the expertise of the United Metal Products engineering and manufacturing team has been in high demand in the data center space. One region in particular that has tremendous potential to […]
One of the best ways to address the issue of energy consumption in mission critical facilities such as data centers is to use energy efficient cooling solutions. As end users become more comfortable with raising the air temperature to the server inlets there are several unique ways to reduce the overall OPEX of the data center. There […]
As the desired supply air temperature to servers continues to increase there are certain regions of North America that are uniquely positioned to take advantage of this potential energy savings. Canada in particular is a great place for locating data centers that are hoping to take advantage of a fairly mild climate to help reduce the OPEX […]

A critical path toward lowering the overall PUE in a data center is to get the power consumption required by the mechanical systems under control. One of the more strategic and effective approaches to reducing the amount of energy required by the cooling systems is to reduce or eliminate entirely the amount of time that compressors are […]
One of the more exciting developments in the last several years in the data center market has been the conscious effort to reduce energy usage, lower operational expenses, and do so through new technology developments. One of the methods of cooling data centers, especially for hyper scale clients, has been through applying evaporative cooling. A couple years […]
When it comes to evaluating the essence of what makes for a successful data center cooling project, the core components are similar to those in other vertical markets. Most manufacturers are aware of these components, but for whatever reason not all vendors desire to implement them. 1) The first key to delivering a successful cooling solution for […]
As a manufacturer, who provides some of the largest data centers in the world with energy efficient cooling solutions, it is evident that the data center industry has become one of the most energy conscious sectors in business (contra the James Glanz New York Times Piece). The UMP design team regularly meets with very large data center […]
