No.


I know that a fan on its own would only recirculate the warm air, but was
hoping there would be a system for our needs?

No.


I saw some air coolers in the argos that had a 12 litre water tank, but
wasn't sure if these also required an external air vent to work?

That's just what you need in a server room...

This isn't a technology problem; it's a physics one. In order to cool your
room, you need to do something with the heat. You either dump it outside,
or use it to evaporate a liquid in the room. Dumping it outside is the
only option.

A good split unit aircon will cost about the same as a single server, and
take less time to set up than a single server takes to install and
configure from scratch.

Thanks for that Grunff. I realise the money the air conditioning and
routing of pipes will cost, hence why I was trying to find cheaper options.
If we have to pay, then we have to pay; but it's worth asking if it could
save us a few grand!
