STULZ launches space-saving Intelligent


Compact Ser ver Rooms


G


ermany based STULZ group, specialists in
data cooling, recently launched Intelligent
Compact Server Rooms (i-CSRs) in India. The
German engineered i-CSR, a revolutionary
network hosting infrastructure system, is a ready-
to-install solution that takes half the space than a
regular server room and can be installed in just a
week. %ecause of its customisable colour Ànishes
(to match interiors) and plug-and-play systems,
interior Àt-outs for new premises or renovating
existing commercial and industrial workspaces are
made hassle free.
An i-CSR, as opposed to a brick and mortar,
air-conditioned server room, houses the server in a compact, heavy-duty steel structure with in-built highly
power-efÀcient cooling systems and a touchscreen climate control panel. STULZ i-CSRs are designed to be cost-
effective solutions in building local network computing and server hosting capacity.
The rooms include racks for servers, brand neutral UPS, PDUs, remote monitoring, biometric access and
Àre safety systems. 2 ne can conÀgure them in modules of single or multiple racks of k: to k: (racks are
available in mm or mm width, in optional heights of U, U, U and U). )or enhanced reliability, the
cabinets have dust, water and rodent protection, while the cooling systems come with advanced environment
sensors and controls.
i-CSR is ideal for small and large commercial ofÀces, showrooms, retail outlets, bank branches, hospitals, hotels,
studios, research labs; as well as for industrial and infrastructural set-ups such as factories, airports, universities,
etc. It is supported by STULZ India’s highly responsive, round-the-clock, pan-India onsite service network,
connected over a mobile app. The network, manned by factory-trained technicians covering  locations
–including remote ones across the length and breadth of India – is the widest in the industry. STULZ India,
considered a market leader in data centre cooling for the last  years, were recently recognised as the most
admired brand in this segment at the th IT )orum  in 1 ew Delhi.


T


o tackle the water scarcity issue threatening many cities
in India, Cera, a trusted brand in sanitaryware, faucets
and tiles, launched the futuristic and innovative water-saving
urinal Cera Core. The brand’s designers built on the concept
of a three-in-one product, viz, a urinal with integrated
washbasin and sensor tap. The water used for washing hands
is channelised for surface cleaning and Áushing of urinal.
2 n an average two litres of water is used by a person per
use, including Áushing and washing. In comparison, Cera
Core reTuires just ml of water, saving ,ml per use.
Installation of this urinal in public washrooms can save close
to six lakh litres of water per annum, in a washroom visited
by , persons per day, besides other conseTuential
savings like energy. Atul Sanghvi, executive director and
C(2 of Cera, commented, ́Cera believes that there is a
need for greater innovation in tackling water scarcity across
the country. The concerns of most cities becoming water
scarce in the next few years, should propel not just the
conservationist in us – but also the innovator. :e believe
Cera Core urinal uses very simple innovation to solve an
everyday water issue. Cera promises to take water scarcity
very seriously and will aim for a greater range of sustainable
products across its portfolios.”
