Lightning protection system

The combination of Flashtrab, a lightning current arrester, and Valvetrab MS, a pluggable distribution panel, provides a tight voltage-control system to protect electrical and electronic equipment. Both modules safely pass lightning currents to earth ground. Flashtrab extinguishes a 60-kA, 10 x 350-microsecond lightning waveform test to a 4000V level. Valvetrab MS, installed with Flashtrab, further reduces the residual 8 x 20-microsecond waveform to 15 kA.

A hydraulic earth drill with a high-torque anchor handle and utility anchor adapter can significantly improve safety for anchor installation.
Enabling a one-person install, the earth drill has several advantages over manually setting drive rods or using anchor crankers.

These Tower Tech XR cooling towers use evaporative cooling to remove heat generated within the data center by IT equipment. Composite cooling towers are more compact and significantly lighter than metal towers. They arrive at a data center site pre-built.
Data center designers shouldn’t sleep on the benefits of fiberglass construction materials.
