The CLWCE is a 38 rack mount unit, 19" EIA enclosure with an integrated closed loop cooling system. The CLWCE cooling system uses low pressure chilled water to remove the heat generated by the servers.
The CLWCE kit includes:
• An 8 RMU heat exchanger, developed in conjunction with Lytron Inc., an American company with over 50 years of experience in developing liquid cooling systems.
• A custom control unit to manage and monitor the system
• 2 doors, fans in the rear door and a plenum in the front door
Maximizing "up time" and fault tolerance has been considered in all aspects of this liquid cooling system:
• The cabinet contains N+1 high efficiency, variable speed fans.
• A fan can be replaced while the system is running.
• If the temperature in the cabinet exceeds a user-defined threshold, the doors will automatically open, the fans will shut down, and the system will use room air to cool until the problem is resolved.
• Using a Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU) with redundant pumps will ensure the coolant is delivered at a consistent temperature and consistent flow rate.
• The CDU is typically set to a temperature above the dew point so the risk of condensation is eliminated.
• The enclosure (and CDU) can accommodate redundant power sources and have leak detection systems.
