The invention generally relates to ventilation systems and methods, and
more particularly to selectively configurable climate control systems and
methods for use in data centers and the like. A device includes a support
element and a plurality of ducts connected to the support element. The
device also includes a manifold in fluid communication with each one of
the plurality of ducts and a plurality of valves. Each respective one of
the plurality of valves is associated with a respective one of the
plurality of ducts. Moreover, there is at least one actuator operatively
connected to the plurality of valves, which is structured and arranged to
individually actuate each one of the plurality of valves.
