Secure I.T. Environments Ltd has completed a two-phase data centre upgrade for Johnson Service Group.

The data centre was built by Secure I.T. Environments in 2009, and its initial upgrade saw the full replacement of the UPS system to two Riello Multi Sentry 40 kVA UPS systems.

During the second phase of the project, the facility’s air handling units were replaced with FlaktGroup Direct Expansion Multi-Denco air-cooled units in a downflow configuration. The upgrades were completed in a phased approach over three weeks, allowing the data centre to remain up and running throughout.

Chris Wellfair, Projects Director at Secure I.T. Environments, said, “We have a long standing relationship with Johnson Service Group, and it is always great to see the value over time a data centre we have designed delivers for an organisation. Like all data centres, the time comes to upgrade equipment either because of its end of life expectancy or because new more efficient innovations become available, and Johnsons is making those investments to get the most from its data centres in terms of performance and cutting running costs.”

Secure I.T. Environments provides ongoing maintenance for two Johnsons Services data centre sites.
