Equipment cooling infrastructure solutions have expanded and adapted to meet increasing equipment heat loads and improved energy efficiencies. Infrastructure solutions now include energy efficient Close-coupled cooling (C3) alternatives that bring the cooling (heat transfer) closer to the heat source. One C3 solution utilizes distributed refrigerant as a thermal transfer medium. As the industry adopts and integrates Distributed Refrigerant Cooling (DRC) systems, common infrastructure standards are needed to ensure interoperability and connectivity between manufacturers. This standard outlines design requirements for a standard refrigerant distribution infrastructure.
