Our Process

Initial Design & Prototyping

We’ll learn your performance requirements, spatial constraints, and other application-specific details to develop an initial design and prototype.

01

Performance Testing & Design Optimization

If desired, we can performance test your coils in our in-house wind tunnel to validate performance ratings based on real-life data, not extrapolations.

02

Design Finalization & Drafting

Once your design is approved, it’s sent to our design engineering team. It’s one of our largest departments, and that’s by design. Whether you need 100 coils a week or 10 coils per year, our drafting team features nearly 30 mechanical engineering professionals who generate hundreds of designs each month.

03

Production & Delivery

Your approved final design is released to our manufacturing facility for production. We can flex our production schedules to accommodate fluctuations in production needs. And our dedicated sales support staff will handle purchase orders, billing, etc.

04

The Importance of Water Quality in Liquid-Cooled Data Center Cooling Systems

Water quality is absolutely critical in high-performance liquid-cooled data center applications. Contaminant-laden water sources lead to fouling, lost performance, and downtime. Read this article to learn more about water quality standards, various definitions of water quality, and filtration considerations.

FAQ

Do you have experience in high-volume, liquid-cooled data center applications?

We do. We can – and have – supported high-volume production for even the most complex designs. Once the prototyping and design phase is complete, we have the tooling, space, and personnel to bring your drawings to life.

Can I witness prototype testing?

Most definitely. We’re happy to host you and your engineering team if you’d like to take a closer look at how we’re measuring the performance of your coil, our manufacturing processes, or some other part of the production process.

Do you have relationships with any standardization bodies or other industry thought leaders?

Yes. Several of our engineers are ASHRAE members, some of whom have supported work done by ASHRAE technical committees, include 9.9 (mission critical facilities, data centers, technology spaces, and electronic equipment/systems) and 4.6 (water treatment).

My data center coil needs are located in different places in the country. Does SRC have the ability to support that?

We do. We have three plants strategically located on the East and West Coasts as well as in the Midwest, so your coils are never more than two days away via freight. And, while each plant is operated separately, they all support corporate projects and accounts. So, if your needs are very high volume, we can coordinate a three-plant production strategy to ensure you get what you need, where you need it, and when.
