Air Guard® Testing Package SEE IT TO BELIEVE IT! Summary of Conclusions from Data Center Air Management Solutions, LLC: ►In summary, there are real and significant advantages for Data Centers to utilize cable grommets with nylon brushes. We observed no significant differences in bypass airflow capabilities between the Koldlok® and Air Guard products, although the Air Guard performed slightly better in our tests. ►We did find the Air Guard cable grommet's "removable brush feature" very helpful during the data center test, because it eliminated the need to power down, and disconnect computer equipment, every time a floor tile with cut-out was installed or relocated; as was required utilizing the specific Koldlok product we tested. ►Installation (angle) of power cables through cable grommets with nylon brushes had minimal impact on bypass airflow with both Koldlok and Air Guard products, but it should be noted that the Air Guard did perform significantly better at the 70 degree cable test. ►Cable grommets utilizing nylon brushes significantly reduce bypass airflow in all conditions by over 96% compared to a typical "open hole". ►Cable grommets with nylon brushes reduced the overall temperature of an operating data center by 8 degrees Celsius without any modification to the existing air conditioning systems. This translates into significant energy savings. Tried, Tested, and True!
