Vertical Exhaust Duct
Passive Cooling for High Density Applications
Net-Contain
Vertical Exhaust Duct (VED) Systems optimize cooling energy utilization to support high density heat loads to enable 30kw or greater per cabinet.
VEDs passively separate hot exhaust air from cooling air and direct hot exhaust air from active equipment into the Computer Room Air Handler (CRAH)
air return system, allowing higher return air temperature improving CRAH and heat exchanger system ef ciency up to 40% or more.

Typical Data Center
Cool air does not reach the top portions of the cabinets,
making servers in the top rack units vulnerable to overheating
Hot exhaust air follows complex airow path back to
CRAH units

Vertical Exhaust Duct System Bene ts
Flexibility and Versatility – Multiple sizes, heights and adjustable height features allow system to adapt to virtually any data center
structure including slab  oors or raised  oors and facilities with or without drop ceilings
Speed Deployment and Reduce Installation Cost – Fast, simple assembly and integral ceiling seal reduce installation time
by 30% compared to competitive offerings
Enhance Your Data Center Environment – Vertical Exhaust Duct and Net-Access
Cabinets with sealed, solid rear doors dampen
equipment noise
Bond Vertical Exhaust Duct with single connection improves system reliability and protection to personnel – Entire VED
is fully electrically bonded to the cabinet requiring no grounding whips for protection of equipment and personnel
