Small Changes Deliver Major Water Savings: Simple Modifications to Your Evaporative Cooling Systems Can Dramatically Increase Efficiency

Want to significantly reduce your data center’s water usage while also dramatically increasing cooling efficiency? It’s a lot simpler than you may realize. By taking a few steps to optimize your direct evaporative cooling systems, you can drive major gains in efficiency and sustainability. In this Ask the Expert, we learn from a leading pro in direct evaporative cooling for tips that teams can quickly implement, including:

• Making minor modifications to customize the setups of existing direct evaporative cooling systems that were never optimized for a data center’s specific design and climate
• Changing the density, depth, or material of evaporative media to reduce water consumption, reduce energy usage, and stabilize cooling cycles
• Optimizing cycles of concentration in water reservoirs in ways that make cooling far more efficient while also reducing water usage
• Making adjustments to multi-stage evaporative cooling systems that optimize cooling efficiency, prevent static pressure, and fully utilize the potential of each stage
• Customizing evaporative cooling to align with your water source, water chemistry, and your data center location’s climate to increase efficiency and sustainability
