The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (ATS FoC) offers comprehensive data center polymer testing services.
How Do Polymer Tests Support Data Centers?
Polymer testing assesses the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of plastics, elastomers, and composites. In data centers, engineers rely on these tests to select materials during design, verify performance during construction, confirm readiness during commissioning, and establish preventive maintenance schedules during operations. Various types of data center equipment and components may require polymer testing:
- Power distribution units: server racks, uninterruptible power supplies, transformers, switchgear
- Cooling equipment: chillers, heat exchangers, piping, pump seals, and fan blades
- Cable and connectivity: fiber-optic jackets, copper cable insulation, connectors, and cable trays
- Enclosures and structural components: rack coatings, floor tiles, door seals, vibration dampers
About Our Data Center Polymer Testing Services
Our polymer testing services help evaluate polymers used throughout a data center’s lifecycle. We measure key polymer properties, including those that impact thermal management, electrical insulation, sealing, and structural integrity. Our services help our clients with their polymer material selection strategies, ensuring their polymers function as expected in their intended application. Our ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited lab adheres to strict quality protocols and maintains accreditation to ensure test results meet industry standards. We offer an array of polymers testing and characterization services, including, but not limited to:
