Floor Mounted Hot Aisle Containment System
Tate's Floor Mounted Hot Aisle Containment (HAC) system is a pre-engineered solution that expertly channels hot air from IT equipment into an overhead plenum. It provides structural support for IT services on adjustable cantilevered arms, and is suitable for air, liquid and hybrid cooled environments.
For high density environments where liquid cooling is needed, manifolds can be installed via internal arms in the hot aisle. This integrated design directs liquid to the rack.
Customisable for each project, it offers bespoke configurations in length, height, and width to precisely fit spatial requirements. This system is designed for swift, efficient deployment, with the minimum number of components.

Frequently Asked Questions
It is a custom-engineered steel structure that channels hot exhaust air from IT equipment into a designated plenum, improving cooling efficiency and energy performance in data centres.
By optimising airflow and isolating hot air, the system improves cooling efficiency, reduces energy costs, and increases equipment reliability. The structural design also consolidates essential services in one integrated solution, simplifying data centre operations.
By going to the slab rather than supporting the load of the services via the structural ceiling, it allows you to support greater loads which may be necessary in some liquid cooled environments.
Each system is designed to order, with a full structural analysis to ensure it can support the correct loads. Components are fabricated from steel and configured to match the specific dimensions, ceiling heights, and service requirements of your data centre.
Yes, every HAC system is bespoke. Length, width, height, and the number of cantilever arms are fully adjustable to fit your site. Options such as containment doors, polycarbonate panels, and cooling manifolds can also be integrated.
Yes, the HAC system can be designed and delivered as a traditional stick-build or as modular pre-assembled pods, depending on your project requirements. This flexibility supports rapid installation while maintaining structural integrity and performance.
