Future-Proof your Data Center
Data centers today are facing the challenge of supporting rack power demands beyond 20 kilowatts (kW), with projections indicating a move towards 30-50 kW by 2025. This surge is due to the rise of AI and the introduction of CPUs and GPUs with extremely high thermal densities. To meet the growing demands of high-performance computing (HPC) and AI applications, many data center operators are finding advanced liquid cooling as an essential method of meeting the thermal demands of todays data center workloads.
In order to meet the demands of today's high power systems, AMAX engineers advanced cooling solutions for the data center. This method utilizes the superior thermal transfer capabilities of water or other fluids, offering an efficient and cost-effective way to cool high-density racks. It is notably more effective than air, by a factor of up to 3000, and has been successfully applied in mainframe and gaming systems. Now, liquid cooling is gaining traction for safeguarding rack-mounted servers across data centers globally. AMAX has developed a comprehensive collection of resources to guide through the complexities, benefits, and technical needs of liquid cooling. These tools are designed to assist in strategizing the implementation and scaling of liquid cooling technologies within data center environments.

Direct-to-Chip Cooling
Target the source of heat with our cold plate technology, which can remove up to 75% of generated heat, making it an ideal solution for high-performance computing and AI applications.
Immersion Cooling
Immersion Cooling
Immersion cooling represents a highly efficient method for managing heat in computing systems, particularly relevant for high-performance applications such as AI, industrial computing, and data centers. This technology involves submerging computer components or entire servers in a dielectric liquid that is non-conductive. The liquid absorbs heat directly from the components, transferring it away more effectively than traditional air cooling methods. This approach not only enhances the cooling efficiency but also significantly reduces energy consumption and noise levels, making it an ideal solution for environments where space and power are at a premium. Immersion cooling extends hardware lifespan by reducing thermal stress and can enable more compact, powerful computing configurations, supporting the advancement of technology in various sectors.
