Case Study: Custom Walk-In Chamber With Specialized Airflow Provides Solution for Testing Server Racks

A leading technology expert providing infrastructure and software to facilitate the digital transformation of mission-critical businesses reached out to the CSZ team seeking a solution to test their server racks. Their specifications included a unique layout—two testing compartments within one walk-in chamber, separated by a removable wall. To meet the customer’s test requirements, the chamber must support holding temperatures between +5°C and +45°C and a humidity range of 10% to 95% while running a large 40,000 watt server load.

The CSZ team designed a dual-sided walk-in chamber featuring a removable dividing partition, providing the flexibility to conduct independently operated tests or merge both compartments into a single, larger testing space. Doors on either side provide personnel access to the independent testing spaces while four 10HP R410A single-stage refrigeration systems work to supply the required temperature control for a large live load of 40KW per side.

This approach ensured versatility in testing scenarios while maintaining precise environmental control.
