DATASPACE TRUSTS CAT TO PROTECT THEIR DATA.

DataSpace has pioneered the Russian data center arena by offering reliable space, equipment, and bandwidth for leading Russian and multinational financial institutions and telecoms operating in Russia.

Located in the central part of Moscow, physical space and natural gas lines were limited, leading DataSpace to seek with a compact footprint that runs on diesel fuel.

“Every element of the infrastructure is crucial, including how it is designed, built and operated,”

Nikolay Shemetov, technical director at DataSpace.

Together with Cat^® dealer Zeppelin Power Systems Russland, DataSpace designed an infrastructure featuring six Cat 3516B diesel generator sets, each capable of delivering 2 MVA of backup power, and each dedicated to a particular module. The unique backup power system configuration provides flexibility for technicians to shut down and service any generator set with no disruption of power supply to critical systems and loads.

Each generator set meets ISO 8528-5 transient response requirements and accepts 100 percent rated load in one step. Featuring an EMCP 4.2 control panel, the Cat 3516B generator sets also offer expanded engine and generator protection and monitoring.

The Cat backup power solution has worked flawlessly to provide critical backup power since the data center was commissioned in 2012. Zeppelin Power Systems provides the service and maintenance to keep the generator sets run-ready. Dealer technicians safeguard operational availability of the diesel generator sets through weekly, bi-monthly, and annual maintenance procedures.
