McKenney’s installed a 900-ton air-cooled chilled water plant and associated distribution
system for a new 1.5MW data center in Alpharetta, Georgia.
The ChallengeTurning an abandoned warehouse into a 20,000-square-foot data center was no sim-ple task given the aggressive schedule. The McKenney’s team had to contend with limited
space under the raised floor throughout the facility. Careful planning and coordination was essential to avoid losing capacity from reduced airflow to the computer room air handler (CRAH) units.
The SoluTionLeveraging BIM capabilities, the team coordi-nated mechanical and electrical services to maximize heat rejection capacity at the serv-ers. McKenney’s prefabricated most of the
chilled water plant, connections to the major pieces of equipment and distribution piping. Concurrent operation ensured the piping sys-tems were installed as soon as the structure was ready, minimizing field installation time to meet the compressed construction schedule.
The ReSulTSA seamless start-up, and commissioning accelerated the turnover of the Peak 10 data center to the owner.
