Rapid Deployment of Industrial Cooling Towers at Air Trunk Data Centre with FlowMatrix

Amidst the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Evapco Australia Pty Ltd faced a critical need: the urgent installation of four new industrial cooling towers at the Stage 3 Data Centre of Air Trunk in Derrimut, Victoria.

Recognising the importance of timely climate control for this major data centre, FlowMatrix was engaged to deliver a fast, safe, and efficient installation solution.

Project Overview

The project timeline was tight — installation had to be completed within six weeks to meet the operational demands of the data centre.

Complicating matters, border restrictions between NSW and Victoria due to COVID-19 meant Evapco NSW’s own fitters and project managers couldn’t be deployed to Victoria. This required a local, reliable partner capable of stepping in quickly and managing the entire installation process.

FlowMatrix’s Response: Fast, Safe, and Precise

Swift Project Mobilisation: Upon receiving the components at the Port of Melbourne, FlowMatrix provided a detailed quote and secured the project swiftly.

Safety First: FlowMatrix implemented comprehensive COVID-19 safety protocols to protect the team and site personnel, ensuring compliance with health regulations.

Efficient Assembly: The team unpacked the containers, assembled the critical parts, including basins, casings, coil sections, and fan drives, and prepared the units for rooftop installation.

Timely Installation: The four units were craned into position on the rooftop, carefully placed on their designated plinths, and fitted with access platforms for maintenance and operation.

Successful Delivery

Following meticulous testing and commissioning, the four cooling units were fully operational, meeting all performance specifications.

The project was completed on time and within scope, ensuring the data centre’s climate control system was ready to support its critical infrastructure.

This project exemplifies how flexible, responsive, and professional installation partners like FlowMatrix can deliver critical infrastructure solutions — even under challenging circumstances.
