Page worked with this confidential utility services provider to design two concurrent data centers that were planned to meet UTI Tier III standards. A 23,000 square foot data center improves upon the flexibility and efficiency of its current data center and a 38,000 square foot data center in the Austin metropolitan area. The 1MW design in each facility provides 0.5 MW-day one connected IT load for 6,000 square feet of white space with a 2N redundancy. The design provides initial power density of 75 watts per square foot with expansion capability for 150 watts per square foot. The project was completed for occupancy in Fall 2010.
The project also includes a 5,000 square foot control room. The mechanical system is a 3N/2 air-cooled chiller system and 3N/2 chilled water pump distribution system. The white space is a single looped system with 10” supply and return piping. The facility has two chilled water systems, a high temperature system for the white space to increase energy efficiency for the data center and a low temperature system for the administrative areas.
Page provided architecture, interior design, fire protection and MEP / civil engineering services.
