ThermalWorks has introduced a new line of high-efficiency Liquid Cooling Distribution Units (CDUs), designed to meet the growing thermal demands of AI workloads and high-density server environments. The closed-loop CDUs deliver up to 20% more energy savings compared to conventional systems and are backed by ThermalWorks’ global production capabilities for rapid deployment at scale.
A key feature of the CDU is its high delta-T design, which enhances heat exchange efficiency between the primary and secondary cooling circuits. A low approach temperature further improves thermal performance by minimizing the temperature gap between the heat exchanger and cooling fluids. The advanced plate heat exchanger maintains consistent performance under fluctuating AI workloads, reducing the number of CDUs required and cutting energy costs.
The CDUs also include full hydraulic separation between primary and secondary loops, preventing facility water from reaching IT equipment. This closed-loop architecture lowers contamination risks and simplifies maintenance. The system's modular design and quick disconnects facilitate installation and service, while a Team Mode function enables coordinated operation between multiple CDUs through smart controls.
With features such as precision flow control, redundant pumps, and plug-and-play connectivity, the CDUs are built for scalable liquid cooling in evolving data center infrastructures. Current configurations are available in 1 MW and 2 MW capacities, with a 5 MW model planned for release.
