Rittal sets future world standa rd for network and server technology

Listen to this article

Rittal is presenting a newly developed rack system, known as TS IT, for the first time in the UK. As an intelligent modular system of rack and accessories, with reduced complexity and easy-to-install Plug & Play technology, it will ensure far greater efficiency in ordering and assembly with resulting lower costs.

With its’ new TS IT rack, Rittal has succeeded in meeting all the requirements of modular and flexible network and server racks with a single mass produced rack system.

Latest data centre trends

Adapting perfectly to the latest data centre trends, Rittal’s new TS IT rack includes automatic inventory systems and systems for recording the technical features of all components. The new mounting angles provide a range of further options.

For example, the rack can accommodate cable routing aids and the space-saving integration of the new Rittal power distribution rail system PDU-i at the rear. As the design conforms to the 1U standard, this can be fitted directly in the Zero U space between the side panel and mounting level.

The right climate control concept

Powerful IT equipment generates a lot of heat, which has to be dissipated safely and therefore it is  important to have highly energy-efficient cooling systems to ensure safe operation of the installed technology.

Accordingly, Rittal is distinguishing between future rack generations based not on their areas of application, but on their climate control requirements. Enclosures are now only differentiated according to climate control technology or rack and/or row climate control.

The rack is already designed for climate control with specific IT cooling systems and liquid-based cooling systems such as the LCPs (liquid cooling packages) from Rittal.

Consequently, the racks have a free ventilation area of 85% for climate control. In the case of fire, the TS IT rack also provides the necessary air-tightness to safely enable the use of extinguisher gas systems and meets the relevant holding times. This averts any potential threat from fire. These properties have been confirmed by accredited testing laboratories.

Best possible accessibility

Users can choose between perforated and solid rack doors. All doors are equipped with practical 180° hinges and permit a maximum of accessibility.

The divided rear door (a standard feature) guarantees that space is used optimally. The TS IT rack also has a sufficiently tight gasket to make it suitable for gas extinguishers to be used in the event of fire and it is, of course, suitable for rack climate control.
