The Active Thermal Management Cool-rack is a 2U, four-fan temperature-controlled cooler for racks that are “in the open.” Factory set to go on and off at 90 and 85 degrees, these set points are easily changed using front panel push buttons. The temperature display adds a nice professional touch to this inexpensive (list $360.00) rack cooler.

Two other recent additions to the ATM line are the rack-mount and table-mount Cool-controls. Each is a thermal switch (with display) that adds automatic operation to racks or cabinets that came with fans — but not thermal switches. Just plug them into an AC socket and plug the fans (or their wall-warts if DC fans) into Cool-control. Put the remote thermal sensor on the hottest component in the rack or cabinet, and you’re done! Like the Cool-rack described above, on and off temperatures are easily changed.

Here are the details.
