OptiCool Technologies is an affiliate company of Calvary Robotics – a 20 year history of engineering innovation
We design, engineer, manufacture and market our award-winning OptiCool® cooling system in Webster, NY
Company Overview
We focus exclusively on refrigerant-based rack containment and overhead proximity cooling solutions for mission critical cooling applications
Recognized by Gartner as a 2013 “Cool Vendor” in Data Center Infrastructure, Power and Cooling
OptiCool® revolutionizes data center design by reducing the need for airflow management as the primary design criteria for cooling

Cool Row® System
Cool Door® System
Key Concept: Air vs H2O vs R134a
For the same unit volume: Water carries 3,500 times more heat than air R134a with endothermic phase change carries 50 times more heat than water “Moving from air to water reduces the energy costs of cooling by 50%” “When using refrigerant, it reduces energy costs by 90%”, over air

Key Messages Cooling closest to the heat source drives efficiency
The conventional “cool the room” approach is the least efficient
COMPONENT(Most Efficient)
RACK (OptiCool)
Managing airflow with “containment” has limitations
High energy and space costPoor utilization of space Fire suppression challengesLimited capacity (10-15 kW) per rack ~2.8 to 4.3 tonsSound Pressure – System Dependent
Managing “airflow” is complex and costly
High energy and space costExpensive CFD software / consultingExpensive plenum / duct workLimited capacity (8-10 kW) per rack ~ 2.3 to 2.8 tonsSignificant Sound Pressure - ~80 dB
In-Row Cooling is floor space and energy intensive
High energy and excessive space costRedundancy challengesExtreme noise levelsLimited capacity (10-15 kW) per rack ~ 3 to 4.3 tonsSignificant Sound Pressure - ~75 dB
Capacity (30 kW per rack or ~9 tons) Redundancy (20 kW N+1) Energy efficiency (up to 96%) Space efficiency Proximity cooling NEBS Zone 4 Rated Reduced Sound Pressure - 50 dB
