One of our customers is a filmmaker working in East London. This independent film studio makes video and film segments for advertisements and features for clients. They have a small staff, are busy with multiple projects and use sophisticated rendering software. Our customer creates all their work in-house, and frequent revisions to the content make the cloud too slow to be efficient and productive in terms of output. This rendering software is very powerful and creates a significant thermal load.

Our customer occupies a rented office space in East London, and the office space is ample, open, and recently refurbished. The area is a blank canvas that gives the tenant a high degree of flexibility. The lease includes ‘comfort’ air conditioning.

They approached us as they needed to find a server cooling system for their servers to accommodate the rendering software’s heat load. A suitable method is required to be localised because they could not improve, increase, redirect or control the air conditioning of the space.   Maxi-Cool Enclosures were ideal for this situation as they do not require an outside condenser, so there were no modifications necessary to the building, and the cabinet can be repositioned within the space as they come on heavy-duty castors. Additionally, if the business relocated to another office, they could take the Maxi-Cool system with the other furniture.

For us, this was a relatively straightforward installation. Once the team got everything onto the first floor, it was put into position and switched on to test. Our engineers always test that everything is working correctly and address any questions the customer might have before leaving any site. In this case, the engineer turned off the Maxi-Cool unit after testing, and the customer was free to install their equipment before turning the Maxi-Cool back on again. Maxi-Cool Enclosure Cooling Systems were a flexible server cooling option for this business. We provided them with the cooling required to run their software efficiently and accommodate the other variables of space and environment.
