Plant Hire Companies IT failure
The servers and computers that run their depot network failed during recent high temperatures. The failure caused thousands of pounds of damage and lost business as they were unable to process hire contracts. To ensure reliable operation in the future their IT specialists advised them to install air conditioning to ensure that temperatures stay within acceptable limits.
They were advised overheating by even a few degrees can blow a server chip. It doesn’t take a great surge of heat to damage server and network equipment - a couple of degrees too high and you could be facing considerable further downtime. They contacted KwikCOOL, a site survey was undertaken by a specialist sales engineer, he sized the cooling application taking into account the heat load generated by the servers and people entering and exiting the room, three
KwikCOOL 25 Duct units were recommended to expel heat in the false ceiling.
They choose to hire as their requirement was limited to 20 weeks of the year and KwikCOOL agreed to leave the equipment on site free of charge so they had the equipment ready for the following summer. The plant Hire company now offer KwikCOOL hire units (via a cross hire deal) to their client now they have 1st hand experience of the benefits.
