Another unique product from Carcoon is a product called Server Shield.

Mainframe computers must be protected from dust and moisture at all times. This means building refurbishment or even redecorating can become problematic.

Information stored on these machines is extremely sensitive and  can be worth hundreds of thousands to the business concerned.

Carcoon we were recently consulted by one of the UKs most well know banks requesting help find a solution to a serious problem.

Building work within the branch had allowed fine partials of airborne dust to find its way into the mainframe server.

The result was nothing short of disastrous, in fact the hard drives in the main server were effectively “ground clean”.

Multi platter hard drives used in these machines spin around 15,000rpm transferring up to 125MBytes/second and can be destroyed in the blink of an eye!

 

 

The creation of the Server Shield provides an ideal solution to the problem, effectively placing the machine in a clean super atmospheric mini environment.

Four small ventilator/filter units provide a clean ventilating airflow keeping the machine temperature stable and importantly clean and dry.

The cover simply drops over the machine and forms a semi airlock/seal as it rests on the floor around the machine. The machine requires no modifications whatsoever and continues to work as originally designed taking air through the body of the machine and exhausting around the top rim .

A small independently powered digital temperature readout is fixed to the cover  showing machine working temperature within the cover.

Openings in the cover are provided to allow quick and easy access to the machine without removing the cover.

 

 IT  Managers—-  think “Server Shield” before endorsing any building work anywhere near your machines.

Builders think — “Server Shield Protection”   and reduce your exposure to potentially costly claims.
