質問 # 23
What should be considered when using a direct air handler for a data centre?
- A. Cost of operation as power consumption on these units tend to be higher compared to traditional air conditioning technology.
- B. The availability of three-phase power due to the high power requirements of these air handler units.
- C. Temperature, humidity and contamination of the outdoor environment.
- D. Space available inside the computer rooms as the air handler space requirement for the inside the Computer room is quite large.
正解:C
解説:
Direct air handlers are a type of cooling system that use outdoor air to cool the data centre. They draw in fresh air from outside, filter it, and supply it to the data centre at the desired temperature and humidity level. Direct air handlers can reduce the energy consumption and operating costs of data centres by eliminating the need for mechanical cooling or refrigeration. However, they also have some challenges and limitations that need to be considered. One of the main factors to consider when using direct air handlers for data centres is the temperature, humidity and contamination of the outdoor environment. Depending on the location and climate of the data centre, the outdoor air may not always be suitable for cooling the data centre. For example, if the outdoor air is too hot, too humid, or too polluted, it may not provide enough cooling capacity, or it may damage the IT equipment or cause corrosion. Therefore, direct air handlers need to have sensors and controls to monitor the outdoor air quality and adjust the airflow accordingly. They may also need to have backup cooling systems or supplementary cooling devices, such as evaporative coolers or heat exchangers, to cope with extreme weather conditions or peak loads.

質問 # 26
The UPS vendor is offering the latest model of their UPS to you. The vendor indicates that the UPS is categorized as VFD class.
Is this UPS a fit for your mission-critical data centre?
- A. No
- B. Yes, but only if you oversize the battery bank with 10%.
- C. Yes
- D. Yes, but only if they install it with a 12-pulse rectifier.
正解:A
解説:
A UPS (uninterruptible power supply) that is categorized as VFD class is not a fit for your mission-critical data centre, because it does not provide adequate protection against voltage and frequency variations. VFD stands for Voltage and Frequency Dependent, which means that the output voltage and frequency of the UPS depend on the input voltage and frequency. VFD UPSs are also known as offline, standby, or line-interactive UPSs. They typically switch to battery power only when the input power fails or goes beyond a certain threshold. However, this switching may cause a brief interruption or a transient in the output power, which can affect the performance and reliability of the ICT equipment. Moreover, VFD UPSs do not filter or regulate the input power, which means that they pass on any voltage or frequency fluctuations, harmonics, or noise to the output power. These power quality issues can also damage or degrade the ICT equipment and the data.
For your mission-critical data centre, you need a UPS that is categorized as VFI class, which stands for Voltage and Frequency Independent. VFI UPSs are also known as online, continuous, or double-conversion UPSs. They provide a constant and clean output power that is independent of the input power. VFI UPSs convert the input AC power to DC power, and then convert it back to AC power with the desired voltage and frequency. This double conversion process isolates the output power from the input power, and eliminates any power quality issues. VFI UPSs also have zero switching time, which means that they do not cause any interruption or transient in the output power when switching to battery power. VFI UPSs are designed to protect the ICT equipment and the data from any adverse effects of voltage and frequency variations, and to ensure the highest level of availability and reliability.

質問 # 30
Which design consideration should be implemented with an Inergen-based fire suppression system?
- A. Pressure relief valves are required in the room that needs protection.
- B. To use Inergen only for fires which are not related to electrical power.
- C. Install protective covers around the nozzles to avoid accidental gas dumps.
- D. Install the gas containers (tanks) close to the data centre.
正解:A
解説:
A design consideration that should be implemented with an Inergen-based fire suppression system is to install pressure relief valves in the room that needs protection. Inergen is a clean agent fire suppression system that uses a mixture of inert gases (nitrogen, argon, and carbon dioxide) to displace the oxygen in the room and extinguish the fire. However, when Inergen is released into the room, it creates a sudden increase in pressure, which can damage the walls, doors, windows, and ceilings of the room. To prevent this, pressure relief valves are required to vent the excess pressure to the outside and maintain a safe pressure level inside the room.
Pressure relief valves should be designed and installed in accordance with the relevant standards and codes, such as NFPA 2001 and ISO 14520.

質問 # 35
Which one of the following is a factor that can affect Availability and Reliability?
- A. Radio Active Waves
- B. Employee Salaries
- C. Attenuation
- D. Inadequate Cooling
正解:D
解説:
Availability and reliability are two important aspects of data centre performance that measure how often the system is operational and how dependable it is. According to the EPI Data Centre Framework, availability is the percentage of time that a system or component is in an operable state, while reliability is the probability that a system or component will perform its required function under given conditions for a specified period of time. Both availability and reliability can be affected by various factors, such as design, maintenance, human error, power supply, security, etc. One of the factors that can have a significant impact on both availability and reliability is cooling. Cooling is essential for maintaining the optimal temperature and humidity levels for the IT equipment and preventing overheating, which can cause failures, downtime, and reduced lifespan.
Inadequate cooling can result from insufficient capacity, poor airflow management, faulty components, or environmental conditions. Inadequate cooling can reduce the availability and reliability of the data centre by increasing the risk of thermal stress, hot spots, performance degradation, and equipment damage. Therefore, cooling is a critical factor that can affect availability and reliability in a data centre.

質問 # 36
What is the recommended location for the Isolation Transformer in relation to the ICT-Equipment location?
- A. The isolation transformer should be as close as possible to the ICT equipment but taking into account potential EMF.
- B. The isolation transformer has to be installed within the power entry point of the building due to electrical code (regulation) requirements.
- C. The isolation transformer should be as far away as possible to the ICT equipment to avoid potential EMF.
- D. The isolation transformer should be installed within the rack in which the ICT equipment has been installed.
正解:A
解説:
According to the EPI Data Centre Training Framework, an isolation transformer is a device that transfers electrical power from one circuit to another without changing the voltage or frequency, but providing galvanic isolation1. Galvanic isolation means that there is no direct electrical connection between the input and output circuits, which can prevent ground loops, reduce noise, and improve safety2. An isolation transformer can also provide voltage stepdown or stepup, create a local ground-bonded neutral, reduce harmonic currents, and provide taps for abnormal mains voltage3.
The location of the isolation transformer in relation to the ICT equipment depends on the purpose and design of the transformer. In general, the isolation transformer should be as close as possible to the ICT equipment, but taking into account potential EMF4. EMF is a form of electromagnetic interference (EMI) that can affect the performance and reliability of the ICT equipment5. The closer the isolation transformer is to the ICT equipment, the shorter the cable length and the lower the voltage drop and power loss4. However, the isolation transformer should also be far enough from the ICT equipment to avoid EMF, which can be reduced by using proper shielding, grounding, and spacing5.
The isolation transformer should not be installed as far away as possible to the ICT equipment, as option B suggests, because this would increase the cable length and the voltage drop and power loss4. The isolation transformer does not have to be installed within the power entry point of the building, as option C suggests, because this is not a requirement of the electrical code or regulation, and it may not be optimal for the data centre power system. The isolation transformer should not be installed within the rack in which the ICT equipment has been installed, as option D suggests, because this would increase the heat load and the noise level in the rack, and it may not fit in the rack space.
