One more photo of the interior of the generator room. It's currently getting prepped to handle the new unit so yeah, it's a bit cluttered at the moment.
Follow Us - Colo@ Datacenter Facility Construction Progress
- Thread starter RyanD
- Start date
Once completed the windows are gone, that will be a wall of louvers for air flow to service the heat rejection units and the generator.

Heh, yeah, it's a pretty substantial bit of construction 
As always, if you've got any questions feel free to throw 'em at us

We use 2-factor and 2 independent systems
Elevators to access the 4th floor datacenter, the entire floor is access card controlled from the elevator
- Independent system managed by building management, same access card but requires building security sign-off on card entry
Once you are on the floor with our datacenter all doors are additionally secured with another access card point as well as biometrics (fingerprint) which is of course matched to your access card so it is impossible to share cards
We are looking to add a man trap style entry to the primary access point to the DC floor as well. Currently working on designs for that as it requires some modifications to walls, doors, and entry points

I'm sorting through some photos from Saturday's lift. You'll have some more data center eye candy this morning

The generator is in a sound attenuation enclosure as well as everything is mounted on vibration dampers, our other generator is located on the 4th floor directly above this one.
I would be more worried about the poor guy who's office is in between our 4th and 2nd floor generators
Wow, no kidding eh? Poor guy won't know what hit him. lolThe generator is in a sound attenuation enclosure as well as everything is mounted on vibration dampers, our other generator is located on the 4th floor directly above this one.

If they are running, he won't be at his desk. 3rd floor is a local county government office, they don't have a generator
Aww, not going to share your genny's and make the poor guys work when they could go home? lolIf they are running, he won't be at his desk. 3rd floor is a local county government office, they don't have a generator
At least you know the pictures are legit! lol

Here are a couple more pics from the lift this weekend. This is our second 500kW generator. This brings our total generator capacity up to 1MW.
