Secure Caging

CRS Data Centre Cage Features

Rapidly deployable, fully modular construction allowing for ease of assembly in difficult locations.
Design incorporates features to enable additional Cage Walls to be added for expansion if necessary.
Tamper-Proof, Strong & sturdy construction maintains the security of your valuable assets whilst offering unrivalled visibility, cable access & air flow.
All 2.0mm Cage panels (both standard & custom) have return edge-folds of 25mm on all 4 edges complete with 6 x obround punch (20mm x 7mm) on long edges & 4 on the short edges; allowing the panels to be secured using Kinmar tamper proof screws for added security.
Each panel is secured in place to 50 x50 mm vertical & horizontal post/frames, which are fixed to the top of the raised floor & into the building structure above the suspended ceiling.

Design can be incorporated into a strut ceiling system or a slab-to-slab deployment.Standard panel sizes are modular to correspond with standard computer floor grids.
Door options include swinging or sliding doors.Doors are manufactured to specific widths from framed aluminium sheet to match the Cage Wall material.
All panel/post connections utilize concealed Tamper-Proof fixings from the customer side, providing underfloor, standard 2.4m, above cage & in-ceiling physical security.
New design allows for the removal of tiles under the cage wall.
Caging solutions can be customized & 3d modelled prior to installation to suit any environment or computer room floor layout.

Types Of Secure Data Centre Caging

Standard 2.4M High Secure Data Centre Caging

CRS Standard 2.4m Data centre Caging solutions are custom designed,built & installed to provide high-level modular security solutions for computer rooms. Designed around 600mm x 600mm RAF Floor tiles our data centre cages serve to offer high level security & functionality for your server rooms and colocation data centres.

Underfloor Barriers

CRS Underfloor Data Centre Barriers are used to provide a physical barrier under the Raised Access Floor (RAF). Like our standard caging, these barriers are installed to separate customer cages from each other as well as providing an impenetrable barrier between cages & walk ways. The barriers are constructed using powder-coated steel combined with tamper-proof fixings. Solution design can also be tailored to factor in any cable trays or cable management running under the RAF.

Above Cage and In-Ceiling Barriers

Offering security & peace of mind well & beyond a standard cage, CRS above Cage Barriers are pre-fabricated welded tube sections that are fixed into position via a channel system mounted vertically to existing floor-to-ceiling posts.

Hot & Cold Aisle Containment

CRS designs, manufactures and installs hot and cold aisle containment solutions that provide a range of benefits, including energy efficient operation and reduced energy costs.

Our containment solutions are vendor-neutral, enabling use with both CRS and non-CRS cabinets, are easily retrofittable, and can be used with or without conventional raised-floor cooling solutions.

The fully assembled system is free-floating, with each component free to thermally expand or contract at its own rate, eliminating “waves” or deflections, and maintaining the structural properties of the material.

Containment solutions effectively partition cold air delivery and hot air extraction, preventing cool air mixing with heat generated within cabinets, delivering a more efficient cooling system.

Hot & Cold Aisle Containment

Features

Decreased PUE

Increased data centre cooling capacity

Compatible with Data Centre VESDA & Inergen gas suppression systems

Easily retrofitted and customized around pipe work, light fittings and sprinklers

Allows for accurate cooling requirement forecasting

Increased CRAC efficiencies by allowing for higher return air temperature post installation due to the reduction in dissipation between hot and cold airflows

Smaller Carbon footprint

Heavy reductions in energy costs

Increased efficiency and reduced maintenance costs

Prolong and extend the life of equipment by allowing them to operate at much more efficient and less taxing levels

Lower chiller running costs

Cool much higher heat loads per rack with much less power draw.

Can dramatically reduce energy costs, minimize hotspots and improve the carbon footprint of data centres

Can be used with or without conventional raised floor cooling. It is easily retrofit-ted into existing raised floor data centres and works in tandem with the raised floor as well as with extreme density cooling systems to produce highly efficient cooling solutions.

Up to 20-30% reduction in chiller costs

Consistently separates cold and warm areas without requiring structural changes to the data centre. A cold aisle retro fit can be implemented easily and quickly.

Containment Solutions

Rack Ready Containment

CRS Rack Ready Containment is a ceiling suspended hot or cold aisle containment solution utilising an independent containment solution affixed to the data centre ceiling, making it autonomous and free standing/hanging. Customizable to any aisle configuration or height the system is manufactured from poly carb sheet and aluminium channel, with specialised Brushes creating the final seal between the containment and the racks once they are moved into position.Can be used in conjunction with CRS’s Rapid Deploy Containment with the use of full height rack blanking panels.

Rapid Deploy Containment

CRS Rapid deploy containment was originally designed to provide separation between hot & cold aisles prior to racks being moved into position. Installation provides a suspended containment solution that allows the hot aisle to be contained before the racks are placed in the aisle.

Rack Top Containment

Utilizes Polycarbonate Sheeting & Aluminium F-Channel Extrusions to construct a passive heat barrier between the hot & cold aisles.The sheets are installed in the hot aisle of each rack & fixed into position (TOP & BOTTOM) using aluminium F-Channel Extrusion.The installation of conventional CRS RTHAC may be carried out concurrently with the deployment & installation of both single & double sliding glass/Perspex containment doors.

Drop Away Containment

Designed for use underneath lighting and suppression systems this unique Hot and Cold Aisle Containment Solution is deployed horizontally across the aisles to create a tight containment barrier. The panels are made of an aluminium frame with a special translucent insert. The inserts are available in either a opaque or clear. The Drop Away Roof Panels make up a drop panel roof system which is deployed in the event of a fire. In the event of a fire the horizontal panels drop away from the channel housing when the temperature reaches 60 degrees. This allows the fire suppression system to deploy the suppression to the area under threat of damage caused by the fire. CRS can customize the sizes of the panels to suit any sized aisle configuration.

CRS CEILING SYSTEMS

CRS manufactures, supplies and installs strut-framed metal pan ceiling systems for data centres, designed to deliver optimal operational flexibility and containment efficiency, and engineered to support other requirements, including cable management and fire suppression.

All ceiling tiles are manufactured from high-quality galvanneal sheet, preventing any risk of zinc whisker contamination, and ceiling tiles are finished by powder coating to specific colour requirements.

We deliver additional value through the customisation of ceiling tiles to include penetrations for mounting of other services, and can supply an extensive range of customised tiles for installation in specific locations across complete data centre areas, including cut-outs for recessed luminaires, which can deliver superior illumination results.

Penetrations for mounting a range of environmental BMS sensors can also be provided, reducing upfront procurement and installation costs, and providing an aesthetically superior solution.

Provided relevant information can be secured prior to final manufacture, we are happy to provide penetrations, and will take the lead in coordinating with other trades to confirm required sizes and location details.

INTRODUCTION
The CRS ceiling grid is suspended from building structures above using threaded rod connected to a purpose built innovative bracket assembly that enables ceiling height trimming adjustments without the need for a traditional turnbuckle. The adjustment spindle that inserts into the bracket enables the spindle height to be pre-set on the threaded rods so that the ceiling grid can be preassembled at the working floor plane and easily lifted in sections and attached to the suspension rods.

K E Y F E AT U R E S
No turnbuckle or reverse threaded rod sections are required. Indexing notches located at fixed intervals on main grid extrusions for accurate location of connection brackets. Grid extrusion incorporates an underside channel for the insertion of fastening nuts which provide exceptional pull out resistance and connection reliability for robust fixing to the ceiling. Attachment of preassembled ceiling sections to threaded rods simplified with innovative bracket design that hooks onto rod spindle, ie no fiddly connection to turnbuckles. Fasteners do not leave permanent paint damage to underside of channel improving aesthetics over life-cycle of ceiling.
