Project Case Study
Data Center Decommissioning in Nanuet, New York
A 30,000 square foot data center and its eight-generator standby plant, removed in full, down to the 50,000 gallon fuel tank.
The Project
Taking down an eleven-megawatt plant
This was a full-scale plant removal: a 30,000 square foot data center in Nanuet, New York, backed by eight generators totaling over 11 megawatts, a 50,000 gallon diesel fuel tank, paralleling switchgear, and forty 30-ton Liebert CRAC units. Powerhouse Systems took the entire facility down, inside and out, from the numbered rows of cooling units on the data floor to the rooftop equipment and the outdoor gear. Our own crew handled the disconnect, rigging, and removal across the whole site, keeping a complex multi-system teardown under one point of contact.
Before, During, After
How the site came down
Equipment Recovered
What we removed
- (4) 1,000 kW generators
- (1) 2,000 kW generator
- (3) 1,750 kW generators
- 50,000 gallon diesel fuel tank
- (40) 30-ton Liebert CRAC units
Recovered equipment is refurbished and resold, which is what lets us pay for the gear we remove instead of charging to haul it away.
Have a data center coming offline?
Whether it is a single equipment room or a full facility, we handle the electrical and IT scope from walkthrough to broom-clean handover.
