India’s Bry-Air, one of the leading manufacturers of desiccant dehumidifiers globally, has come out with a new product, BryShield for preventing electronic corrosion in data centers by removing gaseous contaminants. The innovative air filtration system has been aesthetically designed and easily fits into a false ceiling and can be compactly ceiling mounted.
Data centers house servers, network storage systems, network security appliances, UPS systems and other electronic equipment. These hardware systems are susceptible to moisture and electronic corrosion from gaseous contaminants making the server rooms highly vulnerable spaces. Moreover, with the miniaturization of electronics, the risk of micro-corrosion or e-corrosion is amplified. As per industry statistics that 75 per cent of micro-electronic failures are caused due to corrosion. It leads to downtime of the machines with the threat of losing out on the data.
Deepak Pahwa, Managing Director, Bry-Air (Asia) Pvt. Ltd., said, “In the service of providing quality air solutions we realized that data centers or server rooms are not given much attention, and in most cases, people think installing a normal air conditioning system will serve the purpose. BryShield serves multiple purposes as it gives clean air, and ensures that there is no chance of electronic corrosion which normally leads to server failure and downtime. This product saves data and indirectly benefits the well-being of people and assures the smooth functioning of the data center building-blocks.”

BryShield prevents server downtime and saves losses from server failures by preventing electronic corrosion in server rooms, control rooms, and electronic equipment rooms across diverse sectors like banks, IT companies, telecom sites, hospitals, R&D centres, laboratories, and smoking lounges. BryShield becomes even more important in a country like India with poor air quality. Here, the corrosion problem is intensified further in cities and industrial areas.
A common misconception runs across the industry that precision air conditioning removes gaseous contaminants and particulate matter. But the precision air conditioning is not suitable to remove gaseous contaminants from the air. Advanced technology like BryShield neutralizes toxic gases and releases clean air with the help of Honeycomb Chemical Filters – DRISORB. The patented technology is backed up with macro-porous desiccant-based honeycomb matrix filters that come with a life span of more than a year which is easily replaceable.
There are two models of these products, MCU-100 and MCU-250, which are available on e-commerce platforms. They’re compact and lightweight that can be easily mounted on the ceiling at the same time is energy efficient with no noise pollution and can be remote controlled.
