Modular Data Center Cooling System for a Chicago Enterprise Facility

The initial cooling concept for this Chicago enterprise data center relied on a single large central chiller to support year-round server operation. While the system could meet the peak cooling load, it offered limited flexibility during maintenance, responded poorly to changing IT loads, and created a potential single point of failure.

Modular Data Center Cooling System for a Chicago Enterprise Facility

The initial cooling concept for this Chicago enterprise data center relied on a single large central chiller to support year-round server operation. While the system could meet the peak cooling load, it offered limited flexibility during maintenance, responded poorly to changing IT loads, and created a potential single point of failure.

To improve cooling availability and make future expansion easier, the design was changed to a modular N+1 configuration. Dividing the load across multiple chillers allows capacity to follow actual server demand, while keeping standby cooling available if one module requires service.

The final solution uses four EXINDA 30 Ton Modular Water-Cooled Scroll Chillers in a three-duty, one-standby arrangement, providing 90 Ton of active cooling and 30 Ton of backup capacity. Operating on 460V/3Ph/60Hz power and integrated with the building management system through BACnet or Modbus, the EXINDA system enables staged operation, runtime rotation and module-level isolation—delivering scalable capacity, easier maintenance and reliable cooling for continuous data center operation.

Testimonials

Jason Carter

Facilities Manager

“The modular N+1 configuration gives us the redundancy required for continuous data center operation. Individual chillers can be serviced without interrupting the active cooling capacity, and the system can adjust as the IT load changes.”

Megan Wilson

Operations Manager

“The EXINDA chillers integrated smoothly with our building management system. Staged operation and runtime rotation make the plant easier to manage, while the modular design gives us a practical path for future capacity expansion.”
