Server room and data centre design

Uninterruptible power, cooling, BMS and ELV — one design team.

Scope

What the design covers

  • Uninterruptible power supply: static UPS and ROTARY UPS, generator sets, automatic transfer switching (ATS), N+1 / 2N redundancy
  • MV/LV power distribution, main and zonal switchboards, busbar trunking, cable routes
  • Server room cooling and HVAC, cold/hot aisles, free cooling — in cooperation with the plumbing & HVAC discipline
  • BMS / DCIM automation, monitoring of environmental and power parameters
  • Fire alarm system (FAS), early smoke detection, fixed gas fire suppression systems
  • Access control, CCTV, intruder and hold-up alarm system (I&HAS), structured and fibre-optic cabling
  • Cross-discipline coordination, approvals with the distribution system operator, certified experts and the operator
  • Designer's site supervision, acceptance inspections, as-built documentation

Why Eko Elprom

What the client gains

Single-point responsibility

All server room disciplines in one team — no demarcation disputes between designers on site.

Special-purpose facilities

Server rooms for MON, a bank, the Polish Embassy in New Delhi, ICM UW (University of Warsaw; the first ROTARY UPS in Poland) and Samsung — we have designed under the security regimes required by state and financial institutions.

Tender-ready documentation

Schematics, schedules and bills of quantities prepared so that the contractor can price and build reliably.

Approvals handled by us

We handle correspondence with the distribution system operator, network operators and experts in parallel with the design — the client doesn't wait on formalities.

Process

From first sketch to handover

One lead designer at every stage. Cross-discipline coordination, approvals with distribution system operators and utilities, presence on site.

01

Concept and power balance

Needs analysis, power balance, selection of primary and backup power sources, grid connection conditions.

02

Building permit design

Building permit documentation, approvals from the DSO, network operators and certified experts.

03

Detailed design

Diagrams, layouts, calculations, material schedules and bills of quantities — ready for tender and construction.

04

Designer's site supervision

Contractor support, site changes, acceptance and as-built documentation.

FAQ

Client questions

Answers to the questions we hear most often when quoting this type of project.

Across all disciplines: electrical, uninterruptible power supply, ELV systems, BMS/DCIM automation and — with partners — cooling and HVAC, structural engineering and architecture. We coordinate the whole.
Whatever your service requires: from N+1 to 2N and ROTARY UPS configurations. We select the class at concept design stage, based on the power balance and availability requirements.
A concept design with a power balance usually takes a few weeks; the building permit and detailed designs depend on scale and approvals with the distribution system operator — we agree the schedule when we quote.
