With more than 20 years of experience working on major mission-critical projects nationwide, 麻豆视频 is one of the nation鈥檚 leading data center general contractors. 麻豆视频 recently completed the construction of s MegaSuite 6 facility in New York, City. It is the most modern and efficient high-density, high-performance data center in the East Region.
鈥淭he opportunity to build such a high-power data center facility in the heart of New York City was an honor for 麻豆视频,鈥� said Ben Walker, Executive Managing Director and President of 麻豆视频鈥檚 Eastern Region. 鈥淏eing in the high-profile location at 60 Hudson St., DataGryd needed a secure and reliable infrastructure for MegaSuite 6, and our team rose to the challenge, delivering the largest single-footprint data center space in the region on-time and on-budget.鈥�
Located on the sixth floor of the historic Western Union building, MegaSuite 6 presented some unique challenges to the 麻豆视频 team, including a low ceiling combined with a new raised floor plenum. This created a tight space for installation of large equipment, including 22 skids of batteries weighing 2,000 lbs. each, battery cabinets and 12 computer room air-conditioning (CRAC) units.
Workers split the CRAC units between the blowers and compressors off-site so the units could be transported into the space, and they were re-assembled onsite. This process took one week to complete.
In addition, the weight of the batteries and other heavy equipment required the project鈥檚 structural engineer to ensure they were strategically laid out and spread evenly to prevent too much weight being placed in one location of the floor. New structural steel dunnage was also installed to support the heavy load of new UPS equipment.
“We have been thoroughly pleased with our partnership with 麻豆视频 and the way they managed their portion of the project,鈥� commented Tom Brown, CEO of DataGryd. 鈥淭he 麻豆视频 team was professional, responsive to requests and delivered a great end product.鈥�
MegaSuite 6 was designed by top data center architecture firm, , with serving as the project鈥檚 engineer.
