Rittal: New Blue e+ Ducting for IT Applications, in Industrial and IT scenarios

Rittal: New Blue e+ Ducting for IT Applications, in Industrial and IT scenarios

Rittal presents a new rear to front duct for IT installations using the Blue e+.  The product, 3312.820, is designed to direct cool air from a rear door mounted air conditioner to the front of the rack.  Baffles are used to effectively separate the cool air in the front of the rack and the hot air in the rear. In conjunction with solid doors, this improves efficiency while maintaining server temperature set points which reduces downtime.
