1 Systems and Applications for Data Center Siemens Industy

2 1. Overview / Purpose In EM EA the datacenter market is seen as one of the fastest growing of the energy businesses. This blueprint is designed to show the use of applications and systems of EM EA and SGS found within a typical data center projects. It provides a detailed view of the implementation of EM Products and Systems. 2. Data center structure and requirements Figure 1 (below) provides a typical graphical representation of a datacenter power grid. 2.1 Outside Infrastructure of Data Center The outside the data center, namely the incoming power grid and energy management system, are framed within the blue line. This area covers the solutions of both HV and MV substations. Additionally, the energy demand management and renewable integration shown, represent the desire of data center owners to use an energy-mix of different type of energy sources as well as an increasing preference for green energy. This preference requires that Siemens fully understand the data center consumption behavior. Figure. 1 Data Center Eco System The EM EA technologies needed to meet these requirements, represent normal energy supply chain elements found as part of any a transmission and distribution system solutions. Requirements for the highest reliability and quality are the important topics for data center owners. The complete energy supply chain system must include both power monitoring and quality devices. These devices are design to capture and analyze energy quality and disturbances before it affects the lower voltage levels of the data center.

3 2.2 Inside the Data Center As seen in figure 3., energy enters the data center via the medium voltage substation (1) to the main low voltage main substation (2). Low voltage generator(3) may also produce power in parallel on the same bus. This bus feeds both the UPS (4) system and other loads. Throughout the facility, a number of low voltage unit substations further distribute the power to Power Distribution Units (PDU) panels.. Then the electrical energy is distributed to the PC and Server-Racks by an LV Busbar or cable system (5). Above the Power distribution system there are several Monitoring and Control Systems (6) for the Building Management ( BMS ), the Energy Management ( EMS ) and the Power Management ( PMS ). Figure. 3 Data Center Inside View with Application Fields Figure Simplified Data Center Single Line The devices for monitoring and protection will be placed along the simplified data center single line diagram. (Figure.4) See Chapter 3.3 for Power Distribution and 3.4 Power Quality details.

4 One of the main objectives of data center infrastructure is reliability. Data centers are design, built, tested and certified for reliability according to the important multi-tiered standards and classifications seen in Figure 5. Tier classification levels are defined as: Figure. 5 Tier Level of redundancy Examples of incoming supply configurations to fulfill redundancy requirements This example shows a UPS system configuration, with feeder or transformer configurations Figure 6 show loads with 16kVA each 4 x 16kVA = 64kVA UPS should not run on a permanent maximum load 80kVA UPS Need = 80kVA (N) Figure. 6 Example Tier 1 Configuration Figure. 7 Example Tier 4 Configuration ( source: DC_SalesTraining_Power Distribution, Siemens BT ) Advantages and value resulting out of the multi-tiered configurations data center redundancy are listed in the table below.

Application Fields The EM EA and SGS portfolio provides solutions for the following parts of a data center: E Energy Management MV Infeed (1) and EPMS / Monitoring device (6) Figure.. 9 Data Center Portfolio Figure 9 represents the Energy Management level which is contained within the HV / MV substations. Devices in this level include protection relays, bay controller, RTU s, power quality meters and mid-size up to large SCADA Energy Applications. Such a system would typically contain applications like substation automation, energy management, condition monitoring (Figure 10). Siemens IC SG EA LM Page 5 of 12

Monitoring of power quality leads to early fault detection and as well as optimization of the Data Center internal MV/LV grid down to the individual bays or cabinets. It is possible to use revenue grade metering data from PQ meters as an input for invoicing or power balancing. (Figure 13). Power Management software (Figure 14) is used to monitor alarm and easily configure standard and custom reports for power quality monitoring systems.

Sentron PAC / SICAM P and Q-Series devices provide a large and suitable range of measurement devices for Data Center Applications. (Figure 15) Figure. 15 Sentron PAC / SICAM P and Q-Series Siemens IC SG EA LM Page 8 of 12

9 Figure 16 shows the relationship between device and power quality system software. Devices such as the SICAM Q Family ( Q 80 / Q100 ) and SICAM P 850/855 are connected in a Ethernet network using an IEC architecture and SICAM PQS software. This software will provide a detailed power quality analysis of the system. Sentron PAC meters and SICAM P50 / MMU are used for power monitoring and belong to the Sentron Power Manager family of devices. Figure. 16 Power Monitoring and Power Quality Classes, Devices and Software 3.5 Standardization of Communication Due to the large number of different IEDs need to monitor, control and protect the Data Center (i.e. transformer, incoming lines, generators, MV/LV Bays, bus bars, power panels, power quality systems, HVAC, lighting and other systems) a standard communication protocol is preferred to provide data to a central SCADA system via a single protocols. SICAM PAS provides a scalable solution to this application from 15 to 450 devices using IEC Interfaces to other protocols such as Modbus, Bac-Net and OPC are also possible by adding native drivers from our library. The implemented SNMP protocol allows and supports the health monitoring and diagnostic of components such as PQ Meters, routers, protection relays, servers and all the way down to the intelligent Powerplug. This use of SNMP enhances the view to system reliability to a new level.

10 3.6 Cooling and Controls Every auxiliary unit such as chillers, fire detection, and building automation systems could be connected to a single HMI system from EA SYS. This approach allows for the use of a single database and with a common structure. In addition this approach makes it possible to have a well defined HMI with one common interface to display all data center information. This reduces duplicate engineering efforts and reduces error rates during data point engineering. After the data center is commissioned, this same system allows for efficient maintenance and support. 3.7 Hardware and Automation On large and mid-sized data centers, it may be necessary to connect lower level sub-systems to single control center system provided by EM EA. A common control center function fulfills the requirements to bring together all of the energy systems within the data center using the SICAM PAS/SCC, SICAM 230 or SpectrumPower 5/7. All above mentioned devices functions and data points will be brought to a common database and HMI. The use of a control center approach enhances the standard SCADA functionality with EMS (Energy management System) applications such as power flow calculation, model based contingency analysis, topological coloring and fault detection, isolation and service restoration. Thus making it possible to use a SCADA system as a powerful tool to improve the overall data center reliability (Figure 18) Figure. 18 Example Configuration: PMS and EMS System Based on EA Portfolio ( Draft Ericsson DC, M.Rahner ) Siemens IC SG EA LM Page 10 of 12

11 4 Advantages of Siemens System Solution 4.1 Availability By using proven protection and substation products, it is possible to realize tier 1-4 level availability and data center system designs. High reliable energy automation meets Data Center demands. 4.2 Scalability / Redundancy Every data center has a varying number of protection devices and O/I, thus requiring totally flexible. Fast and deterministic communication protocols are needed to meet the stringent date requirements with the greatest flexiblity. Communication redundancy via Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) and High availability Seamless Redundancy (HSR) protocol, provide the core system components date integrity to ensure a suitable solution to every system requirement. 4.3 Communication Protocols Nearly every kind of protocol is integrated in our products. Due to the implementation of IEC Siemens is able to realize fast protection and control functions. (i.e. IEC GOOSE ) 4.4 Modularity / Integration All the above mentioned functionalities could be integrated into single system by mixing and matching various hardware and software components. This improves reliability, reduces maintenance and enables system backup, update and upgrades without costly outages. 4.5 Energy Management System Especially a large Data Center requires energy management functionalities. Similar to an industry or utility application in power consumption, data center make use of the known and reliable EMS functions. Incoming management and decentralized energy management make EM EA solutions to a know how partner of advanced data center functionalities.
