THE FACILITY FOUNDATION FOR DEPLOYABLE COMPUTE.

MODFLEX MODULAR DATA CENTERS

Modular data centers. Built around your project.

ModFlex brings the building, power and cooling together for AI and HPC. Start with the capacity you need, on the site you have, with a clear path to expand.

THE MODFLEX APPROACH

Your site. Your capacity. Room to grow.

A purpose-built modular building system, not a fixed shipping-container catalogue. We bring the building, power, cooling and operating requirements into one facility design, with expansion planned from the start.

    Baseline

    Confirm the site, power position, workload, target capacity, timeline, resilience objective and operating model.

  2. 02

    Concept design

    Translate those inputs into module layout, capacity stages, rack assumptions, electrical architecture, cooling strategy and budget basis.

  3. 03

    Detailed engineering and procurement

    Coordinate structural, electrical, mechanical, controls and equipment packages against approved requirements and interfaces.

  4. 04

    Manufacture and site integration

    Progress module manufacture while site preparation, utility work and deployment logistics move forward in parallel.

  5. 05

    Commissioning and handover

    Test systems, controls, failure responses and operating procedures against the agreed commissioning and acceptance plan.

AI compute, networking and storage systems planned inside a ModFlex facility

PLATFORM-AWARE FACILITY DESIGN

Your facility. Your choice of compute.

ModFlex can house your selected IT systems, or ElioVP can help integrate the compute, networking and storage. Facility design follows confirmed rack requirements; future platforms remain planning scenarios until their configurations are confirmed.

Explore AI infrastructure
Platform requirements and operational access

Current AI platforms

Plan around confirmed AMD MI355X, NVIDIA B300 and NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 system requirements and selected OEM rack data.

2026 platform rollout readiness

Model electrical, hydraulic, structural and spatial pathways for AMD Helios partner systems and NVIDIA Vera Rubin deployments, then confirm every assumption against the selected configuration.

Network and storage zones

Include fabric switches, storage systems, management networks, cable pathways, service clearances and supporting racks in the capacity model.

Agreed availability target

Redundancy, maintainability and failure-domain decisions follow the project’s operational requirement rather than a blanket claim.

Operational access

Equipment replacement, isolation, maintenance routes, controls and safe working access are considered before the layout is fixed.

Integrated commissioning

Electrical, mechanical, controls and operational scenarios are tested against a project-specific commissioning plan before handover.

ENGINEERING AND TRUST

Know what sits behind the design.

Tier Standards expertise

Uptime Institute Accredited Tier Specialist credential

Our engineering team includes a Uptime Institute Accredited Tier Specialist. That expertise informs decisions around resilience, availability and operations, but does not imply a project is Uptime Institute certified unless certification is separately scoped and achieved.

Private projects. Verifiable experience.

We respect our customers’ privacy and take sovereignty and operational security seriously. Many completed environments cannot be published publicly, but selected project photography, video and technical references may be shared privately with qualified organizations where customer permissions allow.

MODFLEX / AIRFLOW ENGINEERING

See the airflow.Refine the design.

Good cooling design goes beyond choosing equipment. We use computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to examine how air moves through the room, where warmer air travels and how the layout shapes the result.

Compare the assumptions. Inspect the results. Document the design decisions.

Temperature section for the prescribed 38°C RDHx 06 discharge case. The calculated maximum is 38.0°C and 14.3 cubic metres of room air exceed the case’s 32°C review threshold.

02TEMPERATURE

Test the assumptions.

Set one rear-door discharge to 38°C and examine where warmer air travels. A deliberate sensitivity case, not a recorded equipment failure.

03PRESSURE

Inspect the differences.

Examine calculated pressure differences across the room. Read each section against its legend and the defined scenario.

Relative room pressure, not fan pressure rise

What this study shows, and what it does not

A defined model

The airflow and pressure study uses a 99,960-cell model of a 13.416 × 4.700 × 2.836 m room, with 12 RDHx racks, 600 kW planned IT load and 122,400 m³/h prescribed recirculation. These are scenario inputs, not a certified capacity rating.

A separate thermal case

The temperature study uses 9,480 cells, with RDHx 06 discharge prescribed at 38°C and the other doors at 29°C. The calculated maximum is 38.0°C; 14.3 m³ of room air exceeds that case’s 32°C review threshold. The discharge temperature is an input, not a predicted coil outlet temperature.

The right interpretation

These are preliminary steady-state CFD results. Moving particles illustrate the solved velocity field, not a transient simulation. Pressure is relative to the volume-weighted room mean, with hydrostatic head removed. The results do not establish fan pressure rise, coil resistance, acoustics or validated cooling performance.

What this example models

A separate reference block

This example uses 16 GB300 NVL72 racks at 150 kW per rack: 2.40 MW of IT load, with a 1.92 MW liquid-cooling share. It is separate from the configurable 3D layouts above. It does not model every facility load or the remaining air-cooled heat.

Four electrical paths

Each path has a grid feed, generator, UPS, battery and busway, with two 33 kW power shelves per rack. The example generator start takes 10 seconds. Battery endurance varies with load; loss of multiple paths can force rack power capping.

Shared cooling headers

Four CDUs, four facility pumps and four dry coolers serve shared headers. The design point is 25 °C ambient, with illustrative 35 °C rack-water supply and 1.2 bar rack differential pressure. Capacity depends on load, remaining equipment and ambient conditions; adiabatic assistance is assumed above 28 °C.

A way to explore, not a guarantee

Transfer times, thermal inertia, temperatures and compute percentages are simplified concept assumptions. These are not live readings, a validated digital twin, a Tier certification or an availability promise. Every ModFlex project requires its own electrical, hydraulic, controls and commissioning studies.
