Level 4 and 5 data center commissioning with TOVO-TEST

Because data centers and IT rooms have complex and specific requirements, at TOVO-TEST we guarantee you level 4 and 5 commissioning services.

Our aim is to ensure that your infrastructure is not only operational, but also optimized for maximum efficiency and security.

Level 4 and 5 commissioning for your data center

What is data center commissioning?

Data center commissioning is a process for verifying and validating the performance of a building, its systems and equipment, before they are handed over for commissioning.

This process is made up of several phases and tests that meet the requirements expressed by the client, in terms of both performance and operation.

The aim of these tests is to examine, and thus test, the design of a data center's physical infrastructure in its entirety, to ensure its reliability during launch and operation.

What does it involve?

The technical installations installed in a data center during commissioning are designed to power and cool the servers present.

During functional tests, equipment such as load banks are installed to simulate the operation of servers and technical installations, whether electrical or climatic.

They can also be used to test the endurance of equipment such as inverters, generators, busbars...

Good to know: commissioning can be applied to any type of data center or IT room, regardless of size!

Why is testing your data center equipment important?

Testing your data center equipmentis essential to ensure that it operates correctly and safely. This can prevent costly breakdowns, unexpected downtime and security risks for your business.

This allows you to make sure of several points:

Reliability : 

Testing ensures that your data center will stay up and running.

Performance: 

By validating that each component is working, you ensure optimum performance of the entire data center.

Compliance : 

Ensure that your data center complies with current regulatory standards.

TOVO-TEST provides you with the resources and tools you need for commissioning, to ensure the success and longevity of your data center, whether you're in France, Europe or North Africa.

Level 4 & 5 commissioning with TOVO-TEST

Level 4: functional and performance testing

This level consists of verifying that the systems are operating correctly according to the operating scenarios defined upstream in the design phase.

Load banks at this level are used to validate the data center's energy and environmental performance.

Equipment will be measured to determine its efficiency: Systems must be tested under operating conditions, at all load levels. This means validating redundancy levels at full load, as well as proper aeraulic operation.

Load testing of the electrical and thermal systems will also be carried out.

Level 5: integrated systems testing

This level consists of testing all the equipment directly associated with the data center in a coordinated way, after functional testing.

These real-life tests are an excellent way of verifying systems and ensuring that they meet service constraints and operational conditions.

All these tests are defined in advance and must meet the specifications when the L5 test scenario is written.

Various items of equipment (temperature, humidity and pressure probes, etc.) will be installed and identified on plans, for requirements and expected results agreed and fixed upstream.

Interested in our commissioning services and expertise for your data center?

Our reference system for comprehensive, realistic tests

To guarantee an efficient commissioning process, we provide you with a complete repository of real equipment to simulate realistic and varied workloads. Equipment that will enable you to carry out comprehensive tests on your entire infrastructure and identify any potential problems.


This repository covers different types of tests, each designed to evaluate a specific aspect of your infrastructure's performance and security:

Load tests :

Checks that equipment can handle expected workloads efficiently. We use test tools to simulate different types of load and detect any malfunctions or bottlenecks.

Redundancy testing :

Ensures that backup systems function properly in the event of failure. We check incident response and failover capability to ensure seamless business continuity.

Safety tests :

Identify any potential vulnerabilities in security systems and protocols. We use tools to test your infrastructure's resilience to failure, and implement preventive measures where necessary.

Cooling test : 

Evaluate the efficiency of your cooling system and detect any potential problems. We carry out real-life tests to check that temperatures are maintained at optimum levels and that there are no hot spots in the data center.

Contact us to rent or buy the equipment you need for your commissioning tests, and thus guarantee a high-performance, secure data center or IT room infrastructure.
