Case Study: 1623 Farnam achieves safer, faster data center expansion with Victaulic grooved pipe-joining solutions

1623 Farnam, LLC upgrades its data center with Victaulic in a $40 million project

The customer, 1623 Farnam, LLC, faced the challenge of expanding the cooling system within its nine-story operational data center, where maintaining system reliability and navigating spatial constraints were critical. To address this, contractor Hayes Mechanical utilized Victaulic's grooved pipe-joining technology to eliminate the risks associated with traditional welding.

Victaulic's solution, which included Series 761 Vic-300 MasterSeal Butterfly Valves and differential pressure-balancing valves, enabled a fast-track, phased installation. This approach minimized downtime, ensured a constant flow of chilled water, and provided long-term flexibility for reconfiguration. The result was a simplified, reliable installation that increased the multitenant data center's system dependability without delaying the project schedule.
