ColdWear Aisle Containment
ColdWear Aisle Containment separates cold and hot air streams in data centers. Cold Aisle and Hot Aisle are two configurations of the same modular aluminium containment system with configurable roof, door, controller, lighting, and blanking components.
Highlights
- Supports both Cold Aisle and Hot Aisle containment designs
- Modular aluminium extrusion structure, cross-section 40x40 mm
- Multiple roof configurations: automatic, manual, and fixed
- Works with raised and slab floor installations
- Ceiling panels use 6 mm flame-retardant polycarbonate with approx. 80% light transmission
- Independent structure so racks can be moved without removing containment
Applications
- Data Centers requiring cold or hot aisle airflow separation
- New installation and retrofit deployment
- Wall-adjacent aisle and multi-vendor rack layouts

Use together with
ColdWear Automatic Roof
ColdWear Automatic Roof ceiling panels open up to 90 degrees on a fire alarm signal so suppression agents can enter cold aisle containment. Dual rotary swing panels with magnetic lock require a Containment Controller Unit.
ColdWear Manual Roof
ColdWear Manual Roof provides cold aisle containment with dual rotary swing panels that open up to 90 degrees by hand. It suits sites where fire suppression nozzles are located inside the containment and automation is not required.
ColdWear Fixed Roof
ColdWear Fixed Roof ceiling panels provide permanent air containment for aisle environments where roof opening is not required. Hollow or solid flame-retardant polycarbonate panels mount in an aluminium profile frame.
ColdWear Ceiling Wall Panel
ColdWear ColdwearPOD ceiling wall panels create a vertical enclosure for Hot Aisle Containment, isolating hot exhaust air from cold supply air and directing it to the ceiling plenum or return duct.
ColdWear Sliding Door
ColdWear sliding door systems provide controlled aisle access while maintaining airflow separation. Double and single door panels in tempered glass or polycarbonate pair with automatic, semi-automatic, or manual rail systems.
ColdWear Smart Containment Controller
The CRA-CU-T Smart Containment Controller is the automation hub for aisle containment. It releases roof panels on fire alarm, controls automatic doors and lighting, and provides touchscreen plus web GUI monitoring. CRA-CU-4CH extends automatic roof and door channels.
ColdWear Rack Blanking Panel
ColdWear blanking panels seal unused rack U-spaces and containment gaps to stop bypass airflow. CWAC-4010 is a snap-in PC+ABS V-0 rack panel; CWAC-4100 to 4111 are containment blanking panels with polycarbonate and aluminium frames.
