Stulz, a leading manufacturer of mission critical air conditioning technology, has invested in a new production facility dedicated to liquid cooling solutions at its headquarters in Hamburg.
The significant expansion of its existing site reflects the company’s strategic focus on meeting the growing demand for advanced cooling systems for high performance computing and artificial intelligence (AI) driven data centres.
Close collaboration between the Stulz research and development, product management and service teams, with seamless communication, coordination and streamlined workflows, allows the company to accelerate the implementation of liquid cooling innovations, leading to greater efficiency and faster time to market. Just as importantly, it strengthens its ability to provide exceptional support to customers, planners and refrigeration specialists around the world.
"Liquid cooling is a highly effective way to efficiently dissipate heat from the sensitive IT equipment found in modern data centres," explained Jörg Desler, global director technology at Stulz GmbH. "Liquid cooling solutions must therefore be manufactured to the highest standards, with rigorously tested materials, modern quality management, efficient production processes, and qualified and experienced personnel. We are proud to have these attributes in place in Hamburg and are already expanding upon them with our new production facility."
STULZ has a comprehensive portfolio of liquid cooling solutions tailored to the diverse needs of cutting edge data centres. These include individually configurable complete systems, advanced chillers with free cooling functionality to enhance energy efficiency, and innovative micro-modular data centre products for scalable, high density deployments. Designed for optimal performance and sustainability, these technologies ensure precise temperature control and maximum reliability.
One of the key products to benefit from the enhanced production capability is the CyberCool CMU cooling distribution unit. This device allows for precise control over the facility water system and technology cooling system sides of a liquid cooling infrastructure. It facilitates better management of coolant flow rates, temperatures and pressure, thereby boosting system efficiency.
The CyberCool CMU is available in two sizes and can be customised to meet specific project needs, offering a continuously variable output of up to 1380kW. Manufactured in Hamburg, it is distributed to customers across the EMEA and US regions from this location, while other Stulz production facilities supply the rest of the world. New models and additional sizes are already in development, with investment in the Hamburg site set to drive this key strategic area forward and ensure long-term job security for the company’s valued personnel.
Jörg Desler concluded: "With this expansion of our production capabilities, we are demonstrating our commitment to Hamburg and thus creating a further basis for growth, innovation and sustainable employment, even in the face of international competition. The development of liquid cooling for high performance computing and AI-driven data centres is a key component of our strategy to strengthen technological leadership and uphold our high standards of quality and service." -TradeArabia News Service
