“Keysource listen rather  than sell and have a willingness to ‘go the extra mile’ rather than just deliver”.

"I'm delighted that we've ended up with the facility that we wanted within the budget that we had allocated, with no compromises. I was interested in the fact that Keysource provide a turnkey computer room design and build service and that they already had experience working with public sector organisations"

Computer Room & Data Centre Construction Management

There are several specific considerations that affect the overall performance of the room. Will the raised floor provide adequate cooling? Is weight an issue? Will it be easy to clean and maintain? What's required to achieve regulatory compliance and planning consent? We never forget successful room construction depends on keeping both technical and practical issues front of mind.

High availability and mission critical environments demand the maximum protection from risks outside the space like Fire Rating, Humidity, Water and physical damage. In these cases we can integrate a modular robust construction complying with the latest euronorm EN1047 standard.

Modular construction creates a secure, highly robust, impenetrable zone that completely encapsulates IT equipment, isolating all threats.

The modular approach also offers ultimate flexibility: specify the secure space you need, wherever you need it. Then extend it later, even move or relocate it - quickly and cost effectively.

It offers:

Superior Fire protection - even in fierce blazes, the internal space remains within safe temperature and humidity limits for vulnerable IT equipment.

A moisture barrier - composite materials protect the space from the water vapour typically released from the structure of the external building in a fire.

Secure from ingress - advanced sealing including a multi-layer steel door prevents ingress from water hoses, gases and fumes, dust and smoke.

Electromagnetic interference - By acting as a Faraday cage, the modular space is shielded from harmful electromagnetic and radio waves.

Environmental monitoring and control - the environment is designed to link to the main building's environmental and power systems.

High performance construction materials - simply the best specification for the job. E.g. Compact Sandwiched compressed Rockwool panels coated with lacquered galvanised steel:

Fire Resistant RF120 up to RF480 (stds. EN-UNE 23802 , EN-UNE 23093)

Accomplishes Norm EN1047 (RF120 y HR<80%)

High thermal isolation 0,0375 0,0375

W/ºC*m^2 (75% > gypsum)

High mechanical resistance (> 5 x gypsum)

Over the next 5 years, most data centers will spend as much on energy (power and cooling) as they do on hardware infrastructure.
