Water Cooled Systems
High density data centers and computing require the most resilient of systems. Cannon's range of water cooled cabinets allows high power equipment to be deployed into almost any environment.
Air/Water and Cabinet Fully Closed Loop Solutions
- Installed onto the floor with no load on the computer room air-conditioning (CRAC )and totally self contained except the chilled water.
- Available as single 'stand alone' cabinets and cross-flow double cabinets. Both side mount (200mm) and rear door solutions available.
Air /Water 'Open Loop' Solutions
In these solutions the air from the cold aisle is used to cool the cabinet and the exhaust air is chilled before returning to the hot aisle at the same temperature or cooler. Also 'Cold Aisle' cabinets may be deployed to supplement the CRAC system.
10Kw - 50Kw solutions available. Features as for closed loop solutions.
Options and Management
CannonGuard monitors the system at all times and may be interfaced to a BMS using SNMP or relays.
Water Control:
- Servo valves (0-10V) with bypass and flow meters may be fitted to ensure most efficient running of the system
- Chilled water temperature may be over 14°C if lower heat loads are evident.
- Automatic water shutoff and door opening mechanisms may be implemented for maximum resilience

Rack Monitor / Master Controller
(Aka Network Interface Card)
The Net/IP module is positioned anywhere within a rack, communicating with any other CannonGuard modules in the row of cabinets and monitoring the environmental conditions within that rack or adjacent racks.
When sub modules are connected to it, it becomes a Master Controller. All of the CannonGuard modules interface with the Master Controller, which will monitor all of the configured alarm outputs forwarding them to a remote monitoring station via SNMP protocol.
Features
- Provides the facility to connect and locally monitor two temperature sensors, a vibration sensor and a humidity sensor, which can be used to raise a remote alarm via the SNMP protocol when the environmental conditions exceed the preset boundaries
- 8 digital inputs and 8 digital outputs for the interconnection; control and monitoring of other equipment
e. g. air conditioning, fire detection and UPS systems or similar items
Specification
Configurable:
- IP Address (any values whatever)
- Subnet mask (this is required to enable CannonGuard to communicate securely within your own network)
- Default gateway - Internet gateway
- 4 x SNMP trap IP destinations
- 2 x Temperature sensor inputs
- 1 x Humidity sensor input
- 1 x Vibration sensor input
- 8 x Digital inputs
- 8 x Digital outputs
- 4 x Change over 'dry' relay outputs (1A @ 30Vdc)
- 1000 Event FIFO (First In, First Out) event history
- Audible buzzer (approx 70dB)
- Roof mounting (zero 'U') to Smart Cab
- 19-inch mounting (1U high x 19 inch wide x 250mm deep)
Requires
- CannonView software for remote management
- Network connection - 100 FULL
Connects With
The Net/IP / Rack Monitor / Master Controller has been designed to be used as the gateway to a suite of Cannon modules and as such provides full remote access to up to 254 control modules in any such system.
The Master Controller is designed to be connected to any standard Ethernet switch, (10/100Base-TX, 100 FULL) using a cat 5 patch lead, for direct connection to PC / NIC use a crossover lead.
The Controller is assigned a static, user configurable IP address which, enables the user to access the installation from anywhere in the world via the standardTCP/IP protocol using the CannonView software.
Each Controller is fitted with two RS485 - RJ45 connectors to allow easy daisy chaining of other CannonGuard modules.
Power
Supplied with integral AC/DC power supply (90 - 264Vac)
Dual power supply options available.
