Server Room Air Conditioner Hire

There can be many reasons why you may need to consider a hire or rental arrangement from Server Room Environments for server room air conditioning or UPS equipment. You may require temporary cover for maintenance or refurbishment or to help with a disaster recovery plan.

Datacentre UPS Rental

We can supply systems as well as complete building infrastructures including:

  • Air conditioners and temporary cooling supplies
  • Uninterruptible power supplies including modular UPS systems
  • Generating sets and temporary power supplies
  • Containerised UPS systems and generating sets
  • Loadbanks and temporary power cables
  • IT Services

We can also provide individual IT systems and buildings including:

  • Modular datacentres
  • Rack cabinets and servers

Our hire packages can form part of an emergency response plan or be required to meet a planned period of increased demand. Rental periods vary from 1-2 weeks to several months with some larger UPS systems having a minimum period of one month.

To prepare for a hire or rental system we will normally complete a site survey to assess any logistics or electrical works and cabling required. At the end of the hire period, we will arrange for the equipment to be decommissioned and removed from site.

Equipment Leasing

Server Room Environments can help clients to fund projects using leasing facilities and investment capital. These can provide a more economically and financial sustainable route for long term hire and rental periods.

    Many systems connected with a server room or datacentre environment can be hired on a short-term rental basis or even leased over a longer term. These can include systems within the white space including servers, air conditioners and UPS systems to plant room systems including chillers and larger UPS and standby power generators. It is also possible today to consider rental of a complete modular datacentre or power system within a containerised building.

Related FAQs

  • Can I hire a load bank from you for testing?

    We can provide a range of load banks and temporary power cables from less than 50kW to several Mega Watts (MW). This is generally arranged for clients when commissioning a new UPS system or standby power generator or during period preventative maintenance works.

  • Do you hire out UPS systems and standby power generators?

    We do and the minimum hire period is generally from one week, up to several months. Temporary power solutions like this can be used to cover an on-site failure or short-term increase in IT load demands. UPS and generator hire is subject to quotation and site survey if the system is hardwired. Plug and play solutions can be hired directly against a quotation and/or purchase order.

  • Do you hire out cooling systems and air conditioners?

    We can provide temporary air conditioning solutions when you need a short-term cooling system on site to augment exiting cooling availability or have a failed system. This is common during peak temperature periods which can mean that we have limited availability from our hire stock if not pre-booked.
