Ensuring uninterrupted operations for a leading Madrid Data Center

Tags:

In Data Centers, operational continuity also depends on the ability to maintain stable and controlled climate conditions. IT infrastructure operating 24/7 requires reliable, high-performance cooling systems that ensure proper equipment functioning even during peak thermal stress. To meet the need for a temporary increase in cooling capacity at one of Madrid's leading Data Centers, operated by Nabiax, Daikin Applied Germany designed and delivered a highly reliable solution, ensuring maximum operational efficiency, flexibility, and continuous performance monitoring throughout the entire project.

Customer requirements: operational continuity and efficiency for a mission-critical infrastructure

Data Centers are at the heart of today's digital economy, hosting and managing vast amounts of data and business-critical applications. In such demanding environments, temperature control is not merely a technical requirement but an essential condition for ensuring uninterrupted service continuity.

With the arrival of the summer season and the resulting increase in outdoor temperatures, one of Madrid's leading Data Centers needed to temporarily strengthen its cooling capacity to maintain high efficiency levels and ensure continuous infrastructure operation. Even minor fluctuations in thermal conditions can affect the performance of IT equipment, potentially impacting site operations.

The customer's goal was therefore to rapidly deploy a reliable, scalable, and immediately operational solution capable of supporting the existing system without requiring permanent modifications to the installation. A key factor in selecting Daikin as a partner was the long-standing collaboration between Daikin and the company responsible for maintaining the site, together with Daikin's extensive experience in servicing and maintaining numerous units already installed at the facility.

The Daikin solution

To meet the customer's requirements, Daikin Rental developed a temporary cooling solution specifically designed to ensure the Data Center's operational continuity throughout the summer period.

The project involved the installation of seven Daikin Screw EWAD-TZBSR2 chillers, each providing approximately 645 kW of cooling capacity, delivering the power required to support the infrastructure's needs. The solution was designed to remain operational for a six-month period, ensuring that the required thermal conditions were maintained even during peak demand periods.

Through the Daikin Rental service, the project included all operational phases required for rapid deployment:

    • solution design and sizing;
    • supply of the cooling units;
    • installation and integration with the existing systems;
    • system commissioning and start-up;
    • continuous performance monitoring;
    • dedicated technical support throughout the entire rental period.

Daikin's technical team managed every stage of the project, ensuring the safe and efficient integration of the equipment and guaranteeing optimal system operation from day one. Thanks to continuous monitoring, unit performance can be tracked in real time, enabling rapid intervention whenever necessary and minimizing operational risks.
