Data Center Air Quality is More Important than Ever — Camfil Air Quality Professionals Explain Why
Data centers and server rooms face growing demands due to the influx of data and rising demand for computationally intensive tasks, operating at higher capacities than ever, resulting in increased energy consumption. Air pollution in these spaces can have disastrous effects on hardware, resulting in significant downtime and lengthy shutdowns.
“Data centers and server rooms inevitably contain contaminants. Merely opening a door can introduce impurities into the space,” says Adam Wiggins, Data Center Segment Manager at global air filtration manufacturer Camfil, “Moreover, outdoor air pollution from sources such as auto exhaust, manufacturing, and industrial processing, and natural particulates like pollen, dander, and dust can infiltrate data centers and server rooms through ventilation systems.”

The resource covers the following topics:
-
