Airsys and Oleon Partner to Revolutionize Data Centre Cooling Solutions
Airsy’s groundbreaking LiquidRack™ system has recently approved Oleon’s Qloe dielectric fluid for use in their innovative cooling technology. This approval follows a series of rigorous tests conducted at Airsys’s state-of-the-art laboratories in South Carolina, USA.
The Need for Efficient and Sustainable Cooling Solutions
The collaboration between Airsys and Oleon comes at a crucial time in the evolution of Data Centre infrastructure. With the increasing demand for high-performance computing, AI, and edge applications, there is a growing need for more efficient and sustainable cooling solutions to manage the high heat loads generated by these technologies.
The Rise of Liquid Cooling Technology
Liquid cooling has emerged as the preferred solution for modern Data Centres as traditional air-based systems struggle to cope with the escalating heat densities of powerful processors. Liquid cooling offers superior thermal management, enabling higher performance and reduced energy consumption.
The Innovation of LiquidRack™ System
The LiquidRack™ system represents a significant advancement in Data Centre cooling technology by utilizing precision spray liquid cooling to deliver superior thermal performance. By directly spraying the CPUs, LiquidRack™ enhances the heat transfer coefficient and reduces the amount of fluid required compared to traditional methods. Its ability to operate at elevated fluid temperatures enables year-round free cooling, eliminating the need for mechanical chillers and lowering energy consumption.
The Sustainability of Qloe Dielectric Fluid
Oleon’s Qloe range of dielectric fluids is derived from renewable plant-based sources and engineered to provide exceptional performance. These fluids offer excellent dielectric strength, thermal transfer capabilities, and material compatibility while being biodegradable, non-toxic, and having zero global warming potential. With high flash points and safe handling characteristics, Qloe is ideal for advanced cooling applications.
Driving Towards a Greener Future
Matthew Thompson, Managing Director Europe at Airsys, expressed excitement about the collaboration with Oleon, stating, “Both Oleon and Airsys are committed to advancing liquid cooling technologies and driving the Data Centre industry towards a greener, more sustainable future.” Maarten Trautmann, Immersion Cooling Programme Lead at Oleon, emphasized the importance of sustainability in data center efficiency, highlighting the partnership’s role in enabling companies with big digital ambitions to meet their environmental goals.
This partnership between Airsys and Oleon signifies a significant step towards revolutionizing Data Centre cooling solutions, offering efficient, sustainable, and high-performance options for the evolving demands of modern technology.
