Slash Your Cooling Costs!!!
Reduce data center cooling costs by directing cold air where it is needed most – through the computer racks! AirBlock curtains and strip doors from Simplex separate cold air and warm air aisles, maximizing the dynamics of air flow to cool your data center. A system can pay for itself in months!

  • Save energy on both air conditioning and fan systems – 15% and 67% respectively (according to a study by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory)
  • The AirBlock product line includes transparent curtains, strip doors, panels and patented hardware; create a solution specific to your needs.
  • Specially formulated vinyls are low-outgassing and anti-static, and meet ASTM and NFPA fire retardancy requirements.
  • Hardware is also designed so that curtains fall away in the case of fire, allowing fire sprinklers full operating range.

Data centers must be kept cool to achieve maximum operating efficiency and insure against disastrous malfunction, computer crashes and loss of data. The most efficient design to facilitate cooling is to place racks of computers front to front and back to back, referred to as “hot aisle/cold aisle.”

AirBlock softwall curtains and strip doors efficiently prevent unwanted mixing of warm air and cold air – one of the key factors contributing to energy waste.

 
 
When the application calls for it, Simplex also manufactures hardwall systems with rigid, transparent panels offering even more containment and greater ability to direct cool air. Again, all products and systems are designed to meet ASTM and NFPA fire retardancy requirements.
