Assess Your Thermal Risk

Before It Becomes an Incident

Most data centers operate with hidden airflow and thermal blind spots.
Purkay Labs helps operators uncover risk, recover capacity, and validate cooling performance—without downtime or new equipment.

The Problems We Solve

Most data centers don’t fail because cooling equipment breaks.

They fail because airflow and thermal conditions quietly drift—and no one sees it until something goes wrong.

Common signs we see:

  • Hotspots that never show up on BMS dashboards

  • Bypass airflow reducing usable cooling capacity

  • Overcooling used as a safety buffer for unknown risk

  • Sensor gaps masking early warning signs

  • High-density zones operating closer to limits than assumed

None of this is unusual.
It’s what happens when environments evolve faster than monitoring strategies.

What is a Thermal Survey?

A thermal assessment isn’t about fixing what’s broken.
It’s about verifying margin, visibility, and risk—under real operating conditions.

Purkay Labs performs focused, non-disruptive thermal assessments that show:

  • How air is actually moving through your white space

  • Where cooling capacity is stranded or underutilized

  • Which areas are operating closer to risk thresholds

  • Whether your current strategy still supports today’s IT loads

All performed live.
No downtime. No configuration changes.

Outcomes

Operators use our assessments to:

  • Reduce risk before it becomes an incident

  • Recover usable capacity without adding equipment

  • Delay or avoid cooling CAPEX

  • Lower energy spend driven by uncertainty

  • Document thermal margin for leadership and audits

This is clarity—not guesswork.

Who This Is For

Enterprise Data Centers
Validate that legacy cooling strategies still protect modern, mixed-density IT—without operational disruption.

Colocation Facilities
Identify tenant-specific risk, resolve hotspot disputes, and protect SLA performance.

High-Density & AI Environments
Confirm thermal readiness before load increases push systems past safe margins.

How It Works

1. Purchase or Service

Purkay Labs' AUDIT-BUDDY system captures ambient air temperature and humidity data in data center aisles.

2. Collect Data

Get quick rack-level insights. Once you are done, put away. It does not touch the server, require any installation or downtime.

3. Actionable Insights

Use the software generated reports to optimize cooling efficiency, manage airflow, and maintain environmental control.

Why Purkay Labs

We focus on measurement, not assumptions.

Our tools and assessments are built specifically for:

  • Live production environments

  • Legacy facilities with evolving loads

  • Operators who need answers—not another dashboard

We don’t sell cooling equipment.
We help you understand what you already have—and how much margin it truly provides

It starts with accurate data.

With the AUDIT-BUDDY, data collection is fast and efficient, conducted in a structured and scientific manner. Our software seamlessly processes the collected data so you can make data-driven decision.

You don’t need more sensors.
You need visibility.

A thermal assessment is a low-effort way to validate your cooling strategy, reduce uncertainty, and ensure you’re not leaving capacity—or reliability—on the table.
