Continuous, clean power is critical to data center uptime. Power-related failures account for over half of outages, making industrial control solutions essential to ensure reliability, rapid failover, and backup coordination. These systems maintain power quality, prevent service interruptions, and meet the high availability standards today’s data centers demand.
We provide custom power distribution solutions for data centers, designing Power Distribution Units (PDUs) with key components like power blocks, fuses, circuit breakers, and surge protectors to ensure efficient and reliable power management.
Intelligent sensors and monitoring software track power metrics in real-time, allowing quick identification and correction of issues to prevent outages and ensure continuous service. The system analyzes trends to trigger alarms or actions, extending equipment life and maintaining uptime.
Industrial automation controllers and Automatic Transfer Switches (ATS) quickly switch power to backup systems during utility failures, ensuring servers remain powered. Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) manage power gaps until generators activate, preventing downtime.
Data centers use advanced power protection systems to ensure stable and safe electricity for IT equipment. These systems include voltage regulators, power conditioners, and surge protection devices that prevent power issues and extend hardware life by quickly addressing faults and voltage spikes.
Thermal management is as critical as power in a data center. Excess heat or humidity fluctuations can throttle performance or damage equipment, so facilities rely on industrial sensors and automated systems to maintain safe operating conditions. These solutions monitor temperature, humidity, airflow, and potential leaks in real time, automatically adjusting cooling systems to optimize energy use, protect sensitive hardware, and prevent downtime.
Data centers use sensors to monitor temperature, humidity, airflow, and detect leaks or smoke in real time. These sensors send data to a central system, ensuring optimal equipment performance and reliability by maintaining proper conditions.
Data centers use advanced control systems to manage cooling equipment, adjusting settings based on sensor data to match server load and environmental conditions. This automation prevents overheating and saves energy by reducing cooling when demand is low. Maintaining stable temperatures is crucial to avoid equipment failures and outages.
Maintaining proper humidity and detecting water leaks are crucial for data center safety. Humidity control systems keep moisture levels ideal to prevent static and corrosion, while leak sensors detect water quickly. Alarms and automatic valve shut-offs help limit damage, and any issues trigger alerts for immediate action.
Data centers are increasing in density, especially with AI and machine learning. To support this, liquid cooling systems are used alongside traditional air cooling. Industrial controls manage these systems, requiring precise control of pumps and valves with PLCs and sensors. Advanced cooling makes environmental monitoring crucial, as any failure can quickly raise temperatures. Automation provides instant backup cooling if needed.
Managing today’s large-scale, high-density data centers requires more than manual oversight. Centralized automation systems, including PLCs, SCADA, and DCIM platforms, bring power, cooling, and environmental controls into a unified architecture. These technologies provide real-time visibility and automated control, helping data centers operate efficiently, respond quickly to issues, and scale reliably with minimal hands-on management.
PLCs are durable controllers used in automation for tasks like managing backup generators and building systems. They are favored in critical settings for their accuracy, 24/7 operation, and resilience to harsh conditions. They support complex programming and updates without system downtime.
A SCADA or DCIM platform in a data center collects data from various devices like power meters and temperature sensors. It displays this information on dashboards, providing operators with a comprehensive view of the facility's power, cooling, and environmental status. This system helps quickly identify and address issues, ensuring efficient management of critical environments.
Automating data center processes minimizes human error and allows quick responses to changes. Systems can automatically manage power, cooling, and backups, enhancing efficiency. Real-time data collection and analysis further optimize operations and improve performance.
Industrial control components allow remote management of data centers, enabling operators to monitor and control systems from afar. This is crucial for distributed centers where staff aren't always present. Dynamic finds that using industrial Ethernet switches and gateways enhances monitoring and automation, reducing the need for on-site diagnostics. This setup allows for quicker problem resolution and centralized oversight as data centers expand.
Data centers depend on fast, reliable safety systems to protect personnel, infrastructure, and uptime. Industrial controls support critical functions like Emergency Power Off (EPO), arc flash mitigation, fire suppression, and access control. These systems detect electrical faults, environmental hazards, and emergencies, then respond immediately to prevent injuries and avoid costly damage.
Data center electrical rooms require safety devices to manage arc flash incidents and equipment faults. Protective relays in switchgear quickly detect issues and trip breakers to prevent arc flash explosions and electrical fires, safeguarding equipment and workers. Modern systems may include arc flash detection for faster response. These systems, adhering to standards like NFPA 70E and NEC, ensure a safe environment. Surge protectors and grounding systems further enhance safety by diverting surges and stray currents, reducing shock or fire risks.
An Emergency Power Off (EPO) system is essential for safety in large data centers, enabling quick power shutdown during emergencies like fires. It disconnects IT equipment, HVAC units, and battery backups to remove electrical hazards. EPO systems integrate with fire alarms to trigger automatically and must be reliable to prevent accidental activation while ensuring safety.
Controlling access to critical areas is a key safety measure. Data centers use access control systems to ensure only authorized personnel enter hazardous areas. If unauthorized access occurs, the system alerts security. Alarms and signs warn of dangers like fuel leaks or high temperatures, with industrial control modules managing these alerts based on sensor inputs.
Data centers use automated fire suppression systems, like inert gas or pre-action sprinklers, to quickly extinguish fires without damaging equipment. These systems, controlled by fire panels and PLCs, work with sensors to detect fires and initiate a sequence: shutting down airflow, cutting power, and releasing suppressants. Environmental monitors also trigger alarms and responses to prevent hazards, ensuring safety and efficiency.
Robust cable management is essential for airflow, safety, and scalability in modern data centers. Industrial-grade trays and routing systems are built to handle heavy loads, harsh conditions, and dense installations without sagging or failure. By organizing cables with precision and supporting future expansion, these solutions help maintain performance, reduce maintenance time, and ensure long-term reliability.
An Emergency Power Off (EPO) system is essential for safety in large data centers. It enables quick power shutdown during emergencies like fires. It disconnects power from IT equipment, HVAC units, and battery backups to prevent electrical hazards. The EPO integrates with fire alarms to trigger automatically and must be reliable to avoid accidental activation. Despite causing downtime, it protects lives and equipment.
