New York-based Infrared Imaging Services has developed a new way to present Infrared images of data center cooling systems and server racks using the new 2D zoomable and 3D Thermal MapIR™ process – Infrared, the company says.
2D Zoomable Infrared Images provide a heat view look at the overall thermal performance of a facility. There are five different views for 2-D thermal map IR. Floor IR and map, Ceiling IR and map, Ceiling IR and Floor IR, Server Details and Down The Aisle view. This thermal mapping can be used for commissioning new facilities, validating CFD modeling, troubleshooting a cooling problem and progressive monitoring in existing facilities.
3D Thermal Map IR may look like CFD (computational fluid dynamics), but they are not. In fact, these are real infrared images stitched together to make 3-D images of the data center cooling system. CFD modeling is a great idea when designing a data center cooling system, but until now, it’s been difficult to validate the theoretical model.
The service also offers complete P/PM inspections on all of data center electrical equipment, and offers the installation of IRISS window ports for safe infrared viewing of critical switchgear and other electrical components without the exposure and hazards associated with the removal of panel covers.
Infrared Imaging Services owner Wayne Swirnow said: “We provide professional thermal imaging services for a wide variety of clients in the Tri-State area and are now a provider of DataCentIR™ services, an innovative new way to look at cooling systems in data centers. Using state-of-the-art infrared equipment and a proprietary process we create photographic-quality 2D and 3D Data Center Thermal Map™ images.”
"Being part of the nationwide United Infrared network provides our company with a huge resource of expertise in many different applications of infrared Thermography, which we provide to our clients. There are several services available from Infrared Imaging Services LLC designed to offer the data center manager a single resource for all thermal imaging and thermal profiling needs” states Mr. Swirnow.
"DataCentIR™ methodologies, quality control and the reports are all standardized,” says Greg Stockton, President of United Infrared, Inc. “This means a national company has one point of contact, one standard price structure, and will receive a high-quality survey and report…on any one of their Data centers, anywhere in the USA”, he concludes. “We are glad to welcome Infrared Imaging Services LLC as our DataCentIR™ partner and look forward to working together.”
