IT Building UNC Chapel Hill
Information Technology Building, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
KLG Jones provided full commissioning
services for the new
Information Technology Building
at the University of North Carolina
at Chapel Hill. The project consists
of a 5-story building containing offices and
mechanical and electrical spaces required to support the
main campus computing facility.
The machine floor is designed
with cooling capacity and power
distribution to support a load of
250 Watts/square foot on the high
density side and 100 Watts/square
foot on the low density side for a
total load of 2 megawatts.Air conditioning is provided by a combination of chilled water CRAC units supplying air to the underfloor air distribution system and Liebert XDO/XDP units located overhead in the cold aisles.
Perforated floor tiles supply air to
the lower level racks and the XDO
units cool the upper level server
racks.The facility is mission critical for the University and contains a number of redundant systems to increase reliability. Redundant capacity is provided in the air conditioning system. Power is fed to the building from two separate substations.
An emergency generator and a three
section UPS system provide emergency
back up power. One
section of the UPS is redundant
with two sections able to carry the
load for 20 minutes. Chilled water
and steam are supplied from the
campus distribution systems which
have multiple central plants connected
to the loops.
KLG Jones provided full commissioning services including full integrated load bank testing of the machine floor and support systems, functional testing of all mechanical, electrical and emergency power systems, failure mode testing of all redundant systems, and thermal imaging of battery connections, electrical panels, PDUs and mechanical equipment.
