The CI project I am working on uses a CRAC unit and I was uncertain, which category CRAC units come under.
If it is classified as Packaged Unitary Equipment then it needs to show compliance with Energy Star. If so which category does CRAC units come under?
If CRAC units are not covered under Energy Star, what performance criteria does it need to comply with to show compliance?

They are not covered by 90.1-2007 so there is no minimum efficiency criteria you must meet.
They have been included in 90.1-2010 so you could look there to make sure you are meeting that minimum and use it as the baseline value if you wish to claim any savings.
