Seismic Data Center
The mission objective was to increase the critical cooling and power system capacity, redundancy, and availability to the existing Seismic data center with no interruption of service to the space.
Power system improvements included the upgrade of the single non-redundant power distribution system to a 2N distribution system and a UPS capacity increase of 175kW to the existing single distribution system. System upgrades included the addition of a new 2,500 kVA dual-ended secondary substation switchgear, medium voltage from two independent sources, PLC controlled automatic throw over capability, and dual bus static UPS power distribution systems for the raised floor.
Cooling system improvements included the addition of water-cooled up flow air conditioning units in the new electrical room and water-cooled downflow air conditioning units in the data center.
