Rittal launches three data centre seminars

The 'Building a Data Centre in the Perfect Storm' CPD seminar takes the form of a real life case study of Nottinghamshire County Council (NCC), covering aspects of complete relocation of a Data Centre, including refurbishment and regeneration. The case study looks at how NCC delivered a state of the art data centre connecting 130,000 users across 700 buildings and 60,000 computers. It explores how NCC handled the perfect brain storm of migration and updating whilst maintaining essential IT services. This course is suitable for all levels of mechanical engineers, facilities managers, estate managers, electrical engineers and IT managers.

Designed to give a brief introduction to the new switchgear and controlgear assembly production standard, 'An Introduction to the Application of IEC 61439' looks at how it should be applied to the design and manufacture of low voltage switchgear and controlgear assemblies. The standard incorporates four key parts: enclosures, climate control, busbar and the devices. It explores assemblies as a total system and not as individual components, looking at how they react together and perform under test conditions. This course is aimed at all levels of expertise within engineering departments.

The 'Date Centre Energy Efficiency' seminar is aimed at all levels of mechanical engineers, facilities managers, estates managers, electrical engineers and IT managers. It looks at different strategies that can be implemented and the potential gains and compromises that could occur. the course covers a broad spectrum of technologies and processes including Data Networks, Data Centres, Computer Rooms, Heating and Ventilation as well as IT infrastructure and Building Management.
