MagPro (also known as Nanjing CIPU Technology Co., Ltd.), a joint venture between CIGU Technology Corp. Ltd. and EPG Data Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., today announced AeroLev 1850, a 1.85 MW-class, 45°C-ready air-cooled, magnetic-bearing chiller platform designed for next-generation AI data centers in water-scarce, high-ambient environments.
As AI computing drives greater power demand and heat density, data-center operators need cooling infrastructure that can scale without increasing dependence on water. AeroLev 1850 combines a cooling-tower-free architecture with oil-free magnetic-levitation technology and intelligent controls to deliver efficient, reliable cooling while reducing water consumption.
At the heart of the platform is a dedicated air-cooled magnetic-levitation compressor with isentropic efficiency of up to 87 percent. A patented condenser delivers subcooling of more than 3°C, while the standard EC fans further improve energy performance. Together, these technologies deliver up to 40 percent higher overall energy efficiency and up to 8 percent lower failure rates compared with conventional oil-lubricated compressors, and up to 10 percent lower maintenance costs compared with conventional chillers.
By eliminating evaporative cooling water, AeroLev 1850 removes a significant operational constraint for data centers in arid and water-stressed regions. Its free-cooling capability uses ambient air during cooler periods to reduce compressor runtime, power consumption, and operating costs.
The platform is also engineered for the shift toward direct-to-chip and immersion liquid cooling. AeroLev 1850 can supply chilled water at temperatures up to 45°C, supporting emerging high-temperature cooling architectures without requiring major infrastructure reinvestment. Its standardized modular design supports rapid installation and flexible expansion as AI capacity grows.
“As water constraints become a defining consideration for data-center development, AeroLev 1850 advances a resilient model for AI data-center cooling,” said William Wu, general manager of Nanjing CIPU Technology Co., Ltd. “It enables efficient, reliable compute growth in challenging environments while turning today’s infrastructure into long-term resilience.”
Alick Wan, founder and chairman of EPG Data Technology (Shanghai) Co., Litd. said: “MagPro marks an important step in our global cooling technology strategy. By EPG’s engineering and delivery expertise with CIGU’s core magnetic-levitation technology, we are building resilient, resource-efficient digital infrastructure less dependent on water.
“AeroLev 1850 reflects our commitment to advancing green data-center infrastructure and a sustainable digital ecosystem worldwide.”
