RagingWire Employs TrendPoint Systems EnerSure(R) Branch Circuit Power Meter to Help Attain LEED Gold Certification
(firmenpresse) - SACRAMENTO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/11/12 -- RagingWire Data Centers, a leading data center colocation provider with over 650,000 square feet of data center space and campuses in both Northern California and Northern Virginia, has implemented on over 16,000 circuits at its Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ENERGY STAR certified Sacramento data center.
Jason Weckworth, vice president Data Center Operations for RagingWire, explains, "With TrendPoint products installed we now have the capability to determine the power consumption costs for each user with true utility-grade accuracy. We did a thorough search of existing and proposed products and selected TrendPoint's products to be a key element of our data center infrastructure management systems.
"RagingWire gains a competitive advantage with our ability to charge for actual energy usage versus a flat charge for energy consumption," continued Weckworth. "It's clear that with the rising use of energy in data centers, you need to create a positive feedback loop to individual customers allowing them to see and respond to their energy usage. With the TrendPoint branch circuit power meters and our custom billing management software, we are able to both accurately bill our customers and help them be responsive to the challenges of their own green IT initiatives."
Seventy-four EnerSure utility grade branch circuit power meters measure the amperage, voltage, power factor and wattage from RagingWire's 16,000 circuits and calculate wattage within 1% accuracy.
"RagingWire leads the data center industry with its and flexible, high-density power," said Roger MacFarlane, CEO of TrendPoint. "The combination of TrendPoint's EnerSure meters and RagingWire's world-class infrastructure and customer experience model is a perfect fit for critical applications and web-centric services such as cloud computing and software-as-a-service (SaaS)."
Measurements at RagingWire include single phase (two wire and three wire), as well as three phase circuits, all at full utility-grade readings. Customers are billed on real time power consumption data, which enables them to reduce power usage. "The onboard Ethernet, flexible CT lengths and sizes, and multiple communication protocols contributed to the ease of integration with our existing software systems on a large scale," said Weckworth.
