The Challenge
Keep broadcaster on air with back-up cooling
With daily live broadcasts, plus a data centre and several hundred office staff, this London broadcasting facility relies on a steady supply of cooling. When two of the site’s chillers needed maintenance, they planned to use their stand-by units to keep the facility cool – which would leave them without a back-up. So they called us in to deliver a cost-effective, efficient stand-by system.

The Solution
A compact cooling package with ACS
On a very small footprint outside the broadcaster’s building we installed a robust cooling system that would kick in if the facility’s own chillers failed. To negate the need for an Aggreko technician to remain on-site, we connected our ACS remote panel to the building’s management system to auto-start and stop the rental package when needed.
