BAC upgrades immersion cooling tank

USA: Baltimore Aircoil Company (BAC) has release enhanced versions of its immersion cooling tank designed for high-performance data centres. 

The tank employs BAC’s CorTex technology – a leak-proof design where cool water circulates through coils and plates to capture heat from a dielectric fluid without the two fluids mixing. Dual pumps provide redundancy, while the sealed, filter-free configuration simplifies operation and eliminates routine maintenance.

The tanks are now offered in multiple sizes – 16RU, 32RU, 38RU, and 48RU – designed to support server widths of 19in and 21in, and depths up to 1200 mm. The tank helps deliver a PUE of up to 1.05.

Air-cooled servers can also be retrofitted for immersion cooling. 

Water/glycol (1) enters the heat exchanger. The pump(s) circulate (2) dielectric fluid through the tank. The cooled dielectric fluid  circulates (3) through the server to provide cooling. The dielectric fluid carries the heat from the servers (4) to the heat exchanger to be cooled. The water/glycol (5) exits the heat exchanger

BAC’s immersion cooling tank is the indoor cooling solution of its Cobalt immersion cooling system, which is a complete indoor and outdoor cooling system for high-density computing. 

When paired with BAC’s full range of outdoor cooling solutions including — evaporative, hybrid, adiabatic, and dry systems — the Cobalt system becomes a complete data centre cooling system.
