I'v just put A/C system into my data center.
55,000 BTU cooling with two 1,200 CFM fans (one in, one out).
This is dedicated for 500 sq ft data room (30 racks).
I'm I understimated needed cooling capacity?

Any recomendations for power generator for above?
Also what is a good auto power switch box (that could also start
power generator) for small datacenter?
