The Challenge:
For decades, data centres have been vital to the continuity of daily operations for companies in markets ranging from government to education to science and technology. Individual operating groups provide facilities that house an organization’s critical applications and data with a network of computing and storage resources. It takes a lot of equipment to manage the power and temperature of such a large system, which can introduce excessive unwanted noise and vibration. Ensuring acoustic compliance for data centre operations is essential, as data centres in both rural and urban areas can exceed local noise standards and impact surrounding communities. Sometimes, meeting the guidelines alone may not be sufficient to appease those living and working near the site, and we help provide the best solution for each circumstance while ensuring acoustic compliance for data centre operations.
The Innovation:
We have experience with many data centres around the world, both working with existing operations and starting with a new site from day one. For each project, we have acoustically tested equipment, performed vibration monitoring, and used noise modelling to ensure acoustic compliance for data centre operations. Whether it be assisting with site planning, equipment selection, or mitigation requirements, we have been able to guide each data centre to use the most practical and affordable solution necessary.
