VertivTM CoolChip CDU liquid-to-liquid and
liquid-to-air solutions support hyperscale, colocation and
enterprise applications
Vertiv (NYSE: VRT), a global provider of critical digital
infrastructure and continuity solutions, today announced a
significant expansion of its liquid cooling product portfolio with
the introduction of two new Vertiv™ CoolChip CDU (coolant
distribution unit) systems. These systems enable modular,
cost-effective liquid cooling deployments in data centers, making
it possible to operate high-density computing for AI alongside
traditional air-cooled racks. The new CDUs are on display at the
Vertiv booth at SC24, the international conference for high
performance computing, networking and storage, from November 19 -
22.

The Vertiv CoolChip CDU family delivers much-needed flexibility
to data centers and colocation providers, with capability for fast,
modular growth and the ability to support multiple high-density
racks from a single CDU, supporting the increasing demand for AI
deployments. Along with these new systems, Vertiv has a broad suite
of global service offerings to support the deployment of liquid
cooled infrastructure, ranging from solution design to installation
to on-going lifecycle and fluid management.
“The AI-focused data center necessitates advanced cooling
technologies,” said John Niemann, senior vice president of the
thermal business unit at Vertiv. “Vertiv's expanded liquid-cooled
solutions support the densification of the data center we are
seeing as a result of AI. Our liquid cooling portfolio,
complemented by our full solution of air cooling, heat rejection,
and re-use solutions and global services capability, enables both
new and existing data centers to seamlessly introduce liquid
cooling as part of the overall hybrid cooling solution to make AI
deployments easier, faster and more cost-effective for
customers.”
The Vertiv™ CoolChip CDU 2300kW model is a
liquid-to-liquid system that offers the most compact footprint in
its capacity range, with the smaller cabinet enabling it to be
placed in the row or in a mechanical gallery outside of the data
center whitespace. Offering 2.3 MW of cooling capacity, this design
caters to hyperscalers and colocation providers looking to deploy
large scale liquid cooling solutions at the highest density. This
solution has the industry’s highest CDU capacity per square foot,
enabling operators to reduce cost and footprint by deploying fewer
CDUs.
The Vertiv™ CoolChip CDU 350kW model is a liquid-to-air
solution that offers direct-to-chip liquid cooling support with
air-based heat rejection, enabling it to easily retrofit into
existing facilities and to deploy liquid cooling for direct-to-chip
applications without a facility chilled water system.
Both Vertiv™ CoolChip CDU systems can distribute coolant
directly to liquid cooled chips and rear-door heat exchangers.
Controls allow for fluctuating temperature and flow to match
varying application demands. The systems leverage unit-to-unit
communication for system-level control; redundant power feeds,
pumps and filters for improved cooling availability; remote
temperature, humidity and leak detection sensors; and integrated
controls that enable remote monitoring and management.
