Schneider Electrics’ InRow, Uniflair Perimeter and Uniflair chiller technology
Schneider Electric InRow Direct Expansion Cooling
Product Overview
Do you want to maximise the density of servers in your server room or data centre? If so, it’s time to check out Schneider Electric’s InRow Direct Expansion Cooling system.
Innovative and modular InRow technology enables you to achieve greater rack densities by integrating containment with room, row and rack cooling systems.
InRow cooling and its intelligent controls actively adjust fan speed and refrigerant flow to match the IT heat load. This maximises efficiency, reduces cost, limits environmental impact and addresses the dynamic demands of today's IT environments.
At a glance
- Modular design enables users to add cooling as demand increases
- Rack inlet temperature controls reduce the risk of rack-level hot spots
- Placing the cooling unit at rack level is more effective
- Real-time capacity monitoring displays current and available cooling capacity
- Manage critical building infrastructure from a single system
- Units can be easily serviced by removing panels/doors
- Variable-speed fans cut energy use during off-peak times
- All monitored through EcoStruxure DCIM software
Schneider Electric InRow Chilled Water Cooling
Product Overview
The InRow Chilled Water Cooling range delivers highly efficient close-coupled cooling for data closets, server rooms and data centres. Take a virtual tour here.
Its design prevents hot air recirculation, while improving cooling predictability and enabling a “pay-as-you-grow”, scalable cooling strategy.
IT teams looking to improve their efficiency or deploy higher density IT equipment will benefit from the modular design of the InRow Cooling range.
Intelligent controls actively adjust fan speed and water flow to match the IT heat load to maximise efficiency and address the dynamic demands of today’s IT environments.

- Units can be easily serviced by removing panels/doors
- Variable-speed fans cut energy use during off-peak times
- Modular design allows user to add cooling as demand increases
- Air-side heat exchangers and insulated compressors reduce noise
Schneider Electric EcoAisle Thermal Containment Solution
Product Overview
EcoAisle is an intelligent hot and cold air containment system designed to maximise cooling predictability, capacity and efficiency at the rack, row or room level.
In today’s data centres, traditional cooling approaches involve complex air distribution systems that tend to be unpredictable and can leave many customers guessing where the cold air goes.
With the EcoAisle containment solution, Schneider Electric has taken the guesswork out of data centre cooling. EcoAisle minimizes air mixing, increases efficiency and provides a predictable cooling architecture. It protects critical IT infrastructure, data and personnel.
