Cold Aisle Containment
Cold Aisle Containment
Precision-Engineered Cooling Efficiency for Mission-Critical Environments
At Electron Metal, we recognize that in high-density IT and telecom environments, thermal management isn't optional it's essential. Our Cold Aisle Containment (CAC) systems are engineered to maintain optimal inlet temperatures by effectively segregating chilled intake air from heated exhaust, preserving hardware integrity while significantly reducing cooling energy consumption.
Designed with flexibility and performance in mind, our containment solutions seamlessly integrate with both raised floor and slab-on-grade infrastructure, enabling efficient deployments in new builds or retrofit applications. Whether supporting a modest server room or a global-scale datacenter, Electron Metal delivers containment strategies that scale to your needs.

KEY FEATURES
Complete Airflow Isolation
Electron Metal CAC structures use durable sliding doors and overhead polycarbonate panels to create a sealed cold aisle environment. This design ensures cold air is directed precisely to equipment intakes while preventing disruptive mixing with warm return air, a vital consideration for equipment longevity and stable operations.
Enhanced Equipment Uptime
Stable intake temperatures lower thermal cycling stress, directly contributing to extended component lifespan and reduced failure rates across servers and networking devices.
Operational Resilience
By controlling thermal pathways, CAC systems offer predictable airflow dynamics, empowering IT managers to maintain cooling performance even during unplanned HVAC interruptions.
Energy-Efficient Performance
Electron Metal CAC deployments have enabled facilities to cut cooling-related energy consumption by as much as 40%. The system’s efficiency enables cooling units to operate at higher return air temperatures, lowering operational costs while supporting increased rack densities.
