For Hyperscale & New Builds

Your design looks right on paper. Live equipment tells a different story.

Design assumptions don't survive first contact with real loads. Before you go live — or before you scale — you need to know your cooling is actually performing as designed. We give you rack-level validation data to catch airflow problems early, when they're cheap to fix.

The Problem

CFD models don't account for how equipment actually gets installed.

Cabling runs, equipment placement, and containment gaps all introduce airflow conditions your design never modeled. By the time you find out during IST — or worse, after go-live — the fixes are disruptive and expensive. Rack-level data during commissioning gives you the evidence to validate what's working, identify what isn't, and make corrections before they become costly.

 How it Works

Step 1: Rent AUDIT-BUDDY Stands or use Purkay Labs On-Site Service

Step 2: Collect Real time data

Step 3: Generate report to drill down to different parts of the facility.

Case Study: Safely Increasing Set-Points in a Hyperscale Environment

A hyperscale operator wanted to raise temperature set points to meet a company-wide Green Initiative — but was already operating near maximum server manufacturer specs. Using AUDIT-BUDDY™, Purkay Labs captured time-trend data across 110 locations over 48 hours and identified a 1.8°F offset between internal server sensor readings and actual rack-level conditions. With that data, the client confidently adjusted their cooling algorithm, achieved meaningful energy savings, and hit their efficiency targets without compromising reliability.

  • Valuable Tool

    It acquires data periodically that is prohibitively expensive to monitor continuously. Now we have confidence in the cooling setup in our halls.”

    — Facility Controls Engineer, Quincy, WA

  • Quickest Turn Around Time

    “I presented the Data obtained from multiple scans to our Senior Leadership team and they are very impressed with what we were able to present within a day of obtaining the product.”

    — Data Center Operations Manager, New York, NY

  • Immediate and Accurate Data

    “Immediate and accurate data within that short window makes this one of the most impressive product I have ever worked with.”

    — Data Center Operations Manager, Longmont, CO

  • Save Time

    “AUDIT-BUDDY allowed us to reduce the amount of time required to get accurate readings compared to alternative methods and tools used in the past. ”

    — Greg Dumas, EEC Construction Operations Manager

  • Cost Effective Solution

    “I have used the Audit Buddy and it is a great tool to add to your critical facility. It is an inexpensive tool that monitors and records temperature and humidity that you can review and then make changes and test again to see the results and these changes within a short amount of time. This is a great product and I highly recommend getting it for your facilities.

Benefits

Save Time & Money

The data is automatically generated at the end of the testing period, so you don’t have to waste time extracting data from loggers, or spend hours stitching the data together in a readable format.

On-Site or Online Support

Scientific and Structured


Don’t rely on data loggers hung from the ceiling or placed sporadically through the testing location. The Baseline Rental Package is a structured and scientific method that captures air striations at three different heights simultaneously. AUDIT-BUDDY is designed to meet ASHRAE and Green Grid technical standards for optimal measuring.

Purkay Labs team members are always available to make sure the job is 100% successful. Whether you need online-support during a job, or need us to run the full benchmarking project for you, we can help.
