Johnson Controls announces York MCV CRAH for more sustainable data centers

Johnson Controls, the global leader for smart, healthy and sustainable buildings, announced the launch of its new YORK® Mission Critical Vertical Computer Room Air Handler (MCV CRAH), engineered to meet the growing demand for sustainable data center technology.

Data centers are one of the fastest growing areas of new construction around the world. Ensuring they remain efficient and sustainable is critical. The new MCV CRAH is specifically designed to support rapid data center expansion while enabling highly efficient and sustainable energy use.

“HVAC equipment is responsible for as much as 40% of energy use within data center applications,” said Merle Brubaker, director of air handling systems, Johnson Controls. “Optimizing efficiency within these facilities is critical, but solutions must be flexible to keep pace with the industry’s rapidly changing landscape. The YORK® MCV CRAH was designed in close collaboration with data center operators to drive sustainability while meeting the unique requirements of data center facilities.”

As the demand for data centers continues to surge, many building owners are turning to hyperscale and colocation growth options to minimize construction timelines and overcome land shortages. These new data centers often require specialized HVAC considerations for adequate cooling and effective energy management.

Featuring a vertical downflow and draw-through layout, the YORK® MCV CRAH is engineered to deliver reliable cooling in above-floor or under-floor data center applications. It has a compact footprint, multiple cooling capacities and true plug-and-play functionality. High-efficiency electronically commutated (EC) motors, plenum fans and low heat-dissipation cabinets also contribute to lower PUE values.

The YORK® MCV CRAH is available with multiple electrical options and 30kW-60kW power output to support phased data center expansion. Rapid manufacturing and simplified installation enable a fast and easy integration. An intuitive, touchscreen Human Machine Interface (HMI) streamlines operation by enabling operators and engineers to quickly and easily visualize and monitor setup, alarms and capacities. Gallery-side maintenance access to fans with integral slide out racks, filters and electrical backed by local expert support reduce risk and maximizes reliability and uptime.

YORK® Vertical CRAHs are manufactured on short lead times from dual laboratories within key North American locations to further enhance speed to market.
