El desafío
In this Tier IV data center (the highest classification of reliability in the industry), Gradiant delivered a fully resilient water treatment program that protected critical systems from corrosion, scaling, and microbial risk across cooling towers, chilled loops, and potable water. Automated dosing, real-time monitoring, and a fail-safe service model with predictive diagnostics and proactive field support ensured continuity. By extending protection to secondary systems, Gradiant became a critical safeguard for always-on infrastructure.
La solución
To meet Tier IV reliability standards, Gradiant implemented a comprehensive water treatment program across evaporative cooling, closed-loop cooling and potable systems.
The customized CURE chemical suite effectively controlled corrosion, scaling, and microbial risk, while integrated auto-dosing tied to the Building Management System enabled centralized control and real-time data logging. Preventive maintenance included scheduled Planned Preventative Maintenance, third-party microbial testing, corrosion monitoring, and Legionella management. On-site critical spares, 24/7 technical support, and embedded water advisory services ensured resilience, continuity, and emergency readiness.
