Selection tools

Rack, PDU and containment calculators

Estimate a starting configuration from a few project inputs, then confirm the final design with our engineers.

Rack selector

Estimate rack height, depth and load from server count and size.

PDU power calculator

Estimate current, PDU rating and outlet count.

Containment ROI estimate

Estimate annual cooling energy and simple payback. Adjust the savings rate to your project.

Frequently asked questions

Are the calculator results a quotation?
No. The tools give a starting configuration. Final dimensions, load class, PDU rating and price are confirmed against the rack elevation and project requirements.

Why does the rack selector round up?
Rack heights are standard. Rounding up leaves space for switches, patching, cable managers and future growth.

How accurate is the containment ROI?
It is a simple estimate based on IT load, PUE, tariff and an assumed savings rate. Actual savings depend on the room, cooling plant and operating profile.
