RACINE, Wis., Nov. 7, 2019
/PRNewswire/ -- Modine Manufacturing Company (NYSE:
MOD), a diversified global leader in thermal management technology
and solutions, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary,
Airedale International Air Conditioning Ltd., a British cooling
specialist leader, has signed an agreement with CyrusOne, the
global real estate investment trust (REIT) specializing in highly
reliable enterprise-class, carrier-neutral data center properties.
Airedale will supply cooling solutions for upcoming data center
projects in Europe.
Airedale will supply complete cooling solutions for multiple
CyrusOne data centers over an initial two-year period. Sites
covered by the agreement include CyrusOne's Dublin and Amsterdam facilities. Airedale expects to
announce additional European projects with CyrusOne over the next
18 months.
The cooling solutions will consist of specifically engineered
SmartCool™ chilled water Precision Air Conditioning (PAC) systems
and OptiChill™ free-cooling chillers, designed to maximize
free-cooling. This process is an alternative method to adiabatic
cooling, thus avoiding significant water costs while still
delivering quality Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE).
"Airedale is known for providing intelligently designed
solutions that deliver best-in-class cooling efficiencies and we
are looking forward to implementing this expertise into our
developments," says Tesh Durvasula,
President, Europe at CyrusOne. "As
a company, we have ambitious expansion plans in Europe and see Airedale as a trusted partner
to help us deliver low PUE and high availability."
Airedale has vast experience in supplying precision cooling
solutions to the data center industry, from providing solutions for
single server rooms to hyperscale facilities. The equipment will be
manufactured at Airedale's state-of-the art production facility in
Leeds, England, supported by a
skilled European-wide network of support engineers.
"We're proud to announce this significant contract award as not
only does it cement Airedale's reputation for supplying precision
air conditioning equipment into high-tech industries, but it also
showcases British manufacturing at its best in a tough economic
climate," states Tony Cole, Managing
Director at Airedale. "We are investing in our production
facilities as a result of these projects, and there is a real buzz
around the place as we look forward to producing the units and
delivering a fantastic solution for the client."
