Overview

The nVent ProLine Containment System Sealing Tape (SKU: UACAST05IN) is a high-performance, black foam sealing solution engineered to optimize airflow management within critical infrastructure environments, particularly data centers. This 32.8-foot roll provides a robust and flexible material for effectively sealing unwanted air gaps and penetrations, a crucial step in maximizing cooling efficiency and reducing operational costs. Bypass airflow, the uncontrolled movement of air around or through equipment without contributing to the cooling of IT assets, is a significant drain on data center energy consumption. The nVent ProLine Sealing Tape directly addresses this challenge by creating a reliable barrier against such inefficiencies. Its advanced sealing technology ensures that conditioned air is directed precisely where it's needed, enhancing the performance of Computer Room Air Conditioners (CRACs) and other cooling units. By minimizing bypass airflow, facilities can achieve a substantial increase in usable cooling capacity, allowing for higher equipment density or extending the lifespan of existing cooling infrastructure. This versatile sealing tape is ideal for a wide range of applications within a data center. It is expertly designed for: * **Room Perimeter Sealing:** Creating a continuous seal along walls and floors to prevent air leakage from the conditioned space. * **Floor Openings:** Sealing around cable cutouts, conduit penetrations, and other openings in raised access floors to maintain underfloor air pressure. * **Under Cabinet Sealing:** Preventing air from escaping or entering the contained space beneath server racks and other equipment. * **Between Rack Sealing:** Closing gaps between adjacent server cabinets to prevent hot aisle/cold aisle mixing. * **CRAC Unit Sealing:** Ensuring a tight seal around the perimeter of CRAC units and their associated ductwork, preventing air recirculation. The foam construction of the nVent ProLine Sealing Tape offers excellent conformability, allowing it to adapt to irregular surfaces and provide a consistent seal. Its durable black finish is designed for professional installations and blends discreetly within the data center environment. nVent is a trusted manufacturer in the electrical and data center infrastructure space, known for delivering reliable and innovative solutions that enhance safety, efficiency, and performance. The ProLine Containment System, including this sealing tape, is a testament to their commitment to addressing the evolving needs of modern data centers. Proper installation of this tape is straightforward, requiring only basic tools and adherence to best practices for airflow management to achieve optimal results and significant energy savings.

How to Install Acrycell Sealing Tape (UACAST1IN)

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing Acrycell Sealing Tape to effectively seal gaps between racks in a data center.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Scissors, Cutting blade

Supplies needed:

Acrycell Sealing Tape (UACAST1IN), Damp cloth, Lint-free towel

  1. Prepare the surface

    Wipe the surface where the tape will be applied with a damp cloth, then dry it thoroughly with a lint-free towel.

  2. Apply the sealing tape

    Peel the backing off the Acrycell Sealing Tape to reveal the adhesive. Press the adhesive side to one side of the gap while unrolling the tape to ensure it is straight and secure.

  3. Cut and secure the tape

    At the end of the gap, cut the tape to form a secure seal. Ensure that any remaining tape is stored under pressure to prevent premature expanding.
