On August 12, 2020, the 'Data Center Evaporative Cooling and Air Conditioning Equipment' standard preparation group was established and the first working meeting was held in Xi'an. The meeting was hosted by Luo Lei, Deputy Secretary-General of China Data Center Energy Conservation Technical Committee. Representatives of 23 units participating in the preparation of the standard attended the meeting, and Mr. Zhang Wenjin, Manager of Aolan Xi'an Branch, attended the meeting on behalf of Aolan.

At the meeting, Professor Huang Xiang of Xi’an Polytechnic University interpreted the preparation outline, briefly explained and explained the chapters set by the standard, and discussed the participating units, preparation division of labor, preparation points and preparation progress of this standard. The content was explained. Subsequently, representatives of the participating units discussed and spoke, expressed their opinions on the preparation of the standard and finally reached an agreement to facilitate the follow-up work.

Evaporative cooling air conditioning equipment has been vigorously promoted and applied in the field of data centers, and the task of formulating evaporative cooling air conditioning equipment standards for data centers is imminent. According to the content of the meeting, the formulation of the 'Data Center Evaporative Cooling Air Conditioning Equipment' standard will start from the requirements of the design, manufacturing and performance testing of data center evaporative cooling air conditioning equipment to form a complete scientific standard value, which is important for evaporative cooling technology. It plays an important role in promoting the development of data room applications, and will also make a huge contribution to energy conservation and emission reduction in the construction of new infrastructure data centers.
