KyotoCooling was conceptualized in 2006. The technological outcome was the result of a series of related steps and realizations. Some of these have resulted in Patent Application for new processes and uses, all are embedded in the industries’ most sophisticated Data Center Cooling Controller. The technology was first designed, then modeled, then checked by external review, then accepted for implementation and build with commissioning in summer of 2007. Subsequent establishment of a test and research facility in late 2007 and internal development of second and third generation controls and finer tuning have created a lights out operational capability with automatic self tuning and adaptation. The controller now monitors and controls over 240 IO points per cell. Full scale industrialization of the controls via redundancy and No Single Point of Failure (NSPF) design was made in 2008. Significant enhancement to seals and air leakage control was made in 2008 to the point of impending certification with oxygen reduction fire suppression systems. Models for sizing and estimating for any geography were developed in early 2009. All models in the line will have field implementations by end of FY2009.
