R4 Ventures LLC / Kinetic Systems Inc sign int’l patent licensing and contract manufacturing agreement

Patented energy saving Cooling Systems with flexible designs for Real Time Cooling of Data Centers and Turbine Inlet Cooling on natural gas combustion turbines

Phoenix AZ and Fremont CA, January 27, 2015: R4 Ventures LLC (R4V) and Kinetic
Systems Inc (Kinetics) have signed an international patent licensing and global contract manufacturing
agreement to manufacture R4V’s patented Multistage Evaporative Cooling System (MECS). The MECS,
a cooling tower based solution, will consist of standard sized skid mounted system modules serving
cooling loads of 600,000 to 4,000,000 btu/h. These standard sized cooling modules can serve data
center IT cooling loads ranging from 200 kW to 1200 kW and Turbine Inlet Cooling (TIC) inlet air cooling
loads on 1 to 15 MW natural gas combustion turbine gensets. The MECS is a truly green technology
that has no high energy consuming compressors (or refrigerants), saves 40 to 60% on cooling energy
costs compared to traditional mechanical refrigeration systems, and reduces green house gas (GHG)
emissions.

As part of this agreement, Kinetics will manufacture R4V’s patented Real Time Electronic Enclosure
Cooling System (Fan Coil Units or FCUs) in KSI’s global fabrication facilities, which includes worldwide
mechanical engineering services and mechanical contracting services. The FCUs are designed to
process cool individual data center racks / enclosures with loads of 5kW to over 35 kW in real time. The
FCUs eliminate hot aisles and cold aisles, maintain data center white space temperatures to within ± 1
°F of the set point temperature, and save 60 to 85% on cooling energy usage/costs compared to
traditional data center cooling methods.

The Real Time Data Center Cooling System is created by combining MECS and the FCUs to
flexibly meet process cooling loads of varying rack densities in today’s data centers. This system saves
60 to 85% of cooling energy usage/costs by not over sizing traditional comfort cooling systems and
recaptures data center “Lost Capacity” due to lack of available cooling, while extending the economic life
of a data center.
