Vertiv (NYSE: VRT), a global provider of critical digital infrastructure, has announced the expansion of its Vertiv™ CoolChip CDU product line in the EMEA region. The launch includes three new models: Vertiv™ CoolChip CDU 70, CDU 100, and CDU 600.
These direct-to-chip (DTC) liquid cooling solutions enhance Vertiv's position in the AI and high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure space. The new models were revealed as part of Vertiv's commitment to scalable and efficient cooling for data centers.
The company reported that the Vertiv CoolChip CDU 600 will debut in EMEA at the Datacloud Global Congress, taking place this week in Cannes.
Sam Bainborough, vice president of EMEA thermal business at Vertiv, stated that rising workloads and higher rack densities are driving the demand for adaptable liquid cooling systems. He added that the CoolChip CDU line provides flexible and scalable solutions that reduce complexity and support future growth.
The new CDUs are designed for both retrofit and greenfield data center environments. They include in-rack and row-based configurations with both liquid-to-air and liquid-to-liquid technologies.
According to Vertiv, the expanded CoolChip family is part of its broader 360AI portfolio. This includes power, cooling, and services designed to tackle the challenges of AI deployments.
The CDUs are also supported by Vertiv™ Liquid Cooling Services, which cover design, installation, fluid management, and maintenance. This allows for deployment in diverse scenarios, from existing facility upgrades to scaling dense AI and HPC clusters.
Key product highlights include: CoolChip CDU 70 : An in-row, liquid-to-air CDU with 70 kW cooling capacity. It offers fast, cost-effective entry into liquid cooling with minimal infrastructure changes.
