Liebert® PDXTM and Liebert PCWTM
Compact Perimeter Cooling Solutions

Introducing thermal management solutions that efficiently lower your operating costs
and pack a lot of capacity into a small footprint.

Liebert PDX and Liebert PCW compact perimeter Options include

cooling solutions let you achieve the highest efficiency „„ Air Cooled (using the Liebert MC™
and protection with low capital, installation and Condenser); water/Glycool™;
maintenance costs. They replace the highly regarded dual cool; chilled water
and popular Liebert Challenger™ 3000 data center „„ Upflow, downflow, front &
cooling system, offering enhanced features including: side discharge
„„ Net capacity per footprint of up to 3.6kW per „„ Infrared and steam gen humidifiers
square foot – the industry's highest
„„ Electric reheat
„„ Industry's most compact footprint
„„ All 60 Hz 3-phase voltages
„„ Wide capacity range of 11kW – 29kW including 575V
„„ Compliance with U.S. Department of
Liebert iCOM™-S thermal system
Energy minimum efficiency standards for
3.0 control is available for optimizing the
data center equipment
performance of multiple cooling units
„„ High efficiency fans and compressors 2.5

Operate More Efficiently and Effectively

Ideal Applications Greater Protection

„„ Small and medium IT spaces „„ Self-optimizing features and advanced controls fine-tune
„„ Telecommunications switching offices system operations for fewer adverse events and longer
equipment life providing availability approaching 100%
„„ Industrial process control
„„ Liebert iCOM unit control provides access to system status,
„„ Laboratories and medical imaging suites
operations and event log and maintenance history
Higher Energy Efficiency „„ Advanced freeze and pressure routines to prevent icing on
coils and locked out compressors
„„ 25% more efficient than the industry-standard
Liebert Challenger 3000 in DX configuration and Lower Capital, Installation and
more than twice as efficient as the Liebert Challenger Maintenance Costs
3000 in chilled water configuration
„„ Liebert iCOM controls provide faster installation, easy
„„ Compliant with U.S. Department of Energy minimum event identification and self-optimization for mantaining
efficiency standards for data center equipment optimal performance without manual intervention.
„„ Industry-leading Liebert® iCOM™ unit control with „„ No fan belts to maintain and replace
advanced algorithms for air temperature and fan
„„ Easy access at front and side for faster servicing
speed coordination
„„ EC Fans reduce motor energy usage by 10-30%,
compared to standard AC motors. More efficient than
centrifugal blowers even when operating at 100%
fan speed
„„ Unique, floor-level air discharge configuration reduces
mix between hot and cold air, improving efficiency
