How JCI Supports DC Blox with Unique Cooling Technology

Johnson Controls International (JCI) holds a multi-year partnership with DC BLOX, primarily centred on the implementation of magnetic bearing air-cooled chillers for next-generation data centre cooling requirements.

Charles Casey, Senior Sales Engineer for Data Centers at Johnson Controls, describes the partnership as addressing core data centre challenges. For JCI, this involves offering mechanical engineering solutions that deliver both technical and business outcomes.

“I support our customers from design inception on their data centre projects all the way through to execution,” he says. “My background and specialties are in mechanical engineering and business finance. It’s a position that merges the two, understanding where the optimum engineering solution and business solution cross.”

The partnership focuses on implementing JCI’s magnetic bearing air-cooled YVAM chillers, which represent a core component of DC BLOX’s standardised infrastructure approach.

“With DC BLOX, they’ve selected our magnetic bearing air-cooled chillers, which focus on efficiency for next-generation data centres,” Charles says. “These chillers either reduce power costs significantly for the same energy usage or free up additional capacity that DC BLOX can sell to their customers.”
