Wolverine Low Voltage provides data center cooling solutions and installation for Michigan data centers, server rooms, network closets, and mission-critical IT environments. From our Ann Arbor office, we deploy advanced cooling controls that optimize airflow, reduce energy costs, and maintain stable rack temperatures for facilities across Michigan.
We install and integrate data center cooling controls designed specifically for mission-critical environments, including CRAC/CRAH unit integration, airflow sensors, differential pressure controls, and automated cooling optimization. Whether you’re upgrading aging systems or building an optimized cooling strategy, our solutions improve reliability, reduce energy consumption, and protect critical equipment.
Our installations follow TIA-942, ASHRAE TC 9.9, and industry best practices for airflow management, cooling redundancy, hot/cold aisle airflow, and sensor-driven cooling automation.
Michigan data centers use different cooling strategies depending on rack density, room size, airflow patterns, and equipment load. Below are the most common data center cooling controls we install across Michigan.
Controls for Computer Room Air Conditioning / Air Handling Units.
Key Features:
Best for: enterprise IT rooms and traditional data centers.
Cooling systems placed directly between server racks.
Key Features:
Best for: high-density server racks and compact data centers.
Energy-efficient fan speed control based on real-time demand.
Key Features:
Best for: all data centers seeking efficiency improvements.
Sensors that monitor airflow, pressure, and temperature across racks.
Key Features:
Best for: heavily loaded server rooms and high-density deployments.
Controls for liquid cooling loops and heat exchangers.
Key Features:
Best for: high-performance computing (HPC) environments.
Optimized airflow based on containment layout.
Key Features:
Best for: modern data centers using aisle containment.
Controls for rack-integrated cooling units.
Key Features:
Best for: edge data centers and micro data centers.
Properly installed data center cooling solutions improve uptime, efficiency, and equipment longevity.
Dynamic control reduces cooling power usage.
Stable temperatures protect sensitive equipment.
Rack-level sensing allows targeted cooling adjustments.
Systems respond automatically to workload and climate changes.
Optimized cooling systems cut utility expenses significantly.
Balanced pressure and airflow improve cooling performance.
Smart controls match cooling output to real demand.
Essential for modern virtualized and cloud computing racks.
Cooling data ties into DCIM, BMS, and environmental monitoring tools.
Supports growth in rack count and equipment load.

We install and integrate the control side of data center cooling: CRAC/CRAH unit controls, in-row and in-rack cooling controls, variable speed fan and VFD controls, airflow and differential pressure sensors, hot/cold aisle containment controls, and controls for liquid cooling loops. Every system is tuned to your rack density and room layout. For building-wide heating and air conditioning controls, see our HVAC control systems installation.
Servers are sensitive to heat and humidity swings. Without active controls, hot spots build up, equipment throttles or fails, and cooling units run harder than they need to. Cooling controls keep rack inlet temperatures inside the ASHRAE recommended range of 64.4-80.6°F (18-27°C), react to load changes automatically, and alert your team before a problem causes downtime.
Yes, we integrate controls with new and existing CRAC and CRAH units, set supply air temperature and humidity setpoints, tune fan speeds, and configure lead/lag and N+1 redundancy so a backup unit starts automatically if one fails. When a unit is being replaced, we can coordinate with your mechanical contractor so the new equipment is wired into the controls from day one.
Yes, we connect cooling controls to DCIM and building management systems over BACnet, Modbus, and SNMP, so cooling data, trends, and alarms show up in the tools your team already uses. For temperature, humidity, and leak sensors with alerting, see our data center environmental monitoring installation.
Yes, every project starts with a rack-level thermal assessment: inlet temperatures at the top, middle, and bottom of racks, differential pressure across aisles and raised floors, and airflow paths. We use the results to place sensors and set the control logic, then re-test after installation to confirm the hot spots are gone.
Usually, yes. Most savings come from matching cooling output to the actual IT load instead of running units at full speed. Fan power drops sharply with speed: a fan running at 80% speed uses roughly half the power of one running at full speed. Controls also prevent overcooling and let you raise setpoints safely within ASHRAE guidelines.
Yes, high-density racks, blade servers, and GPU/AI hardware often need close-coupled cooling. We install controls for in-row and in-rack units and for liquid cooling loops, including flow and temperature monitoring, pump speed control, and leak detection tied into your alarms.
We plan every installation around uptime. Work is staged so existing cooling stays online, cutovers are scheduled in your maintenance windows, and each control sequence is tested and validated before handover. Your team also gets training on the new controls and alarms.
Yes,. our team is based in Ann Arbor and installs data center cooling solutions across Michigan, including Detroit, Grand Rapids, Lansing, Flint, Warren, Midland, and the surrounding areas. See our service areas, or contact us if your city is not listed.
