PD ISO/IEC TS 22237-1:2018

Comprehensive IT Office Machines Standard

PD ISO/IEC TS 22237-1:2018 is the essential British Standard for information technology and office machines. Developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), this technical specification provides comprehensive guidelines and requirements for the design, build, and operation of data centre facilities.

Ensure Compliance and Best Practices

As businesses increasingly rely on digital infrastructure, it's critical that data centres meet the highest standards of performance, resilience, and sustainability. PD ISO/IEC TS 22237-1:2018 helps organisations achieve this by:

• Outlining technical specifications for data centre design, construction, and management
• Providing best practice recommendations for power, cooling, cabling, and other key systems
• Establishing guidelines for environmental conditions, physical security, and other operational aspects
• Promoting compliance with relevant laws, regulations, and industry codes

Optimise Data Centre Efficiency and Reliability

This British Standard is an invaluable resource for IT professionals, facility managers, and anyone responsible for mission-critical digital infrastructure. Key benefits include:

• Improved energy efficiency: Guidance on optimising power, cooling, and other systems to reduce environmental impact and operating costs
• Enhanced reliability and uptime: Technical specifications for redundant, fault-tolerant data centre designs
• Reduced risk and liability: Compliance with legal requirements and industry best practices to mitigate operational, safety, and security risks
• Streamlined operations: Standardised processes and documentation for data centre management and maintenance

Comprehensive Technical Guidance

PD ISO/IEC TS 22237-1:2018 is the first part of a multi-part series covering various aspects of data centre design and operation. This initial document provides an overview of the entire 22237 standard and establishes the fundamental principles, including:

• Terminology and definitions related to data centre facilities
• General requirements for data centre physical infrastructure
• Guidance on site selection, building design, and construction
• Recommendations for power, cooling, cabling, and other critical systems
• Considerations for environmental conditions, physical security, and other operational aspects

Subsequent parts of the 22237 series will delve deeper into specific technical areas, enabling organisations to comprehensively plan, build, and manage world-class data centre facilities.

Trusted by Leading Organisations

PD ISO/IEC TS 22237-1:2018 is an essential resource for any business or organisation that relies on digital infrastructure. It is widely used by:

• IT and data centre managers
• Facility engineers and operations teams
• Architects, designers, and construction professionals
• Regulatory bodies and industry associations
