PLENAFORM® is a flexible, snap-together, air flow control baffle system which helps resolve dynamic thermal imbalances in raised floor environments such as high-density data centers. Baffles are scored both vertically and horizontally so sections can be removed or cut, added or patched, to meet any height, width, or bend requirements.

  • Control and balance Data Center airflow
  • No installation tools required
  • Easy installation with no downtime
  • On-site configurable (width and height)
  • Fits ANY raised floor pedestal
  • Reduces energy consumption and TCO
  • Flammability rating of UL-94 V0
  • Made of flame retardant polypropylene compound that is inert,  non-conductive, and non-hygroscopic

KoldLok® Raised Floor Grommets prevent costly bypass airflow, reduce hotspots, and improve the PUE of your data center.  The KoldLok design utilizes multiple layers of different length, opposing brush filaments to eliminate up to 98% of bypass airflow.  Installation requires no downtime to install or re-cable.

  • Made with fire-rated materials meeting UL94 V0 standards
  • Cost-effective way to separate data cables and power cables
  • Static-dissipation feature provides 1 GigaOhm of resistance
  • Contains no loose or partially fastened parts
  • Satisfies NFPA 75 Section 5-4.4 for raised-floor tile cable openings

PolarDAM® Air Foam’s flexible design makes gap filling quick and inexpensive - ideal for any raised access floors.  The foam sheets are scored for easy self-sizing and conforms to any area where inserted, blocking cold air from escaping into open spaces.

  • Inexpensive, easy installation and removal
  • Foam sheets are 24” x 24” x 2”
  • Sheet are scored into a perforated 1”x1” grid
  • Fire retardant and meets the UL-94-HF-1 rating
  • Excellent for under racks, around PDUs, gaps between racks and around pipes or conduit
PolarDAM Air Dam Foam Sheets

PolarDAM® Air Skirts are fire retardant polypropylene strips designed to fit along the front of server racks, PDUs and other floor mounted equipment in order to prevent bypass air.

  • Available in standard 24” and 30” lengths
  • Magnetic or Velcro attachment options
  • Easily adjustable to alternate sizes
  • Fire rated UL-94-VO
PolarDAM Air Skirt

Polargy offers PolarPlex™ Containment Systems as the most effective airflow management tool for implementing containment strategies in the data center.

PolarPlex™ Containment Curtains are made of high grade vinyl and hung from a trouble-free mounting system. PolarPlex™ Curtains eliminate hot spots and overcooled zones, saving energy while improving equipment reliability.  Curtains accommodate any data center configuration (random cabinet heights and widths), are easy to install, and flexible to redeploy.

PolarPlex™ Containment Panels are made of aluminum framing, one of several fire-safe inserts, lightweight, and cost effective as an air isolation solution. The panels, deployed horizontally across the aisle, create an especially tight cold zone for even better containment. Or, the panels can be deployed vertically (in a stovepipe model) to create containment in situations where the ceiling is too high for dropping curtains.
