Munters has launched a new cooling distribution unit (CDU).
The company has developed the LCX family of liquid-to-liquid CDUs to supplement its existing liquid-to-refrigerant CDU product known as SyCool LCE.
Designed to reject heat from liquid-cooled servers, the new CDU is engineered for large-scale liquid-cooled deployments.
Currently available in sizes from 500kW to 1.5MW, Munters said the modular units include a “novel capability” to stack units to reduce floor space.
Service access on standard models is from the front, allowing CDUs to be installed side-by-side with 1" (25mm) spacing between.
The company said the product supports heat rejection from single-phase cold plates, in-rack CDUs, immersion pod heat exchangers, and more.
"High-density applications are reshaping the requirements for data center cooling," said Keith Dunnavant, VP of offer strategy and portfolio management at Munters. "Designed with efficiency, reliability, and ease of maintenance in mind, the LCX offers a scalable data center liquid cooling solution. Our ability to customize components, such as brazed plate heat exchangers and pumps, allows us to optimize the product for each application. The LCX represents a new benchmark in data center cooling technology, delivering tailored performance, reliability, and cost efficiency."
