GRC Expands Immersion Cooling to the Edge
Stand-alone liquid-to-air cooled rack delivers 13 kW of cooling without chilled water — bringing high density cooling and energy efficient cooling for small data rooms and communications closets.
GRC (Green Revolution Cooling), a leader in immersion cooling technologies for data centers, has launched the new ICEraQ™ Nano. This innovative system is designed specifically for edge deployments in limited spaces like small data rooms and communications closets.
Overview of the ICEraQ Nano System
The 10U ICEraQ™ Nano is capable of delivering up to 13 kW of cooling, and it does so without the complexity of chilled water cooling systems. The Nano arrives fully pre-filled with ElectroSafe® cooling fluid. This compact unit includes an integrated liquid-to-air heat exchanger, making it easy to set up and deploy. Furthermore, with its automated fluid management system and server lift mechanism, server maintenance is significantly simplified.
Features That Set ICEraQ Nano Apart
This model features a 7-inch touchscreen display, which allows real-time monitoring and management of the cooling system. It is equipped with a convenient integrated server lift, and the locking doors ensure that access to IT equipment remains secure.
Benefits of Using the ICEraQ Nano
Peter Poulin, CEO of GRC, stated, "The ICEraQ Nano delivers immersion cooling that addresses high density challenges customers are now facing. By eliminating the need for chilled water and simplifying overall deployment, the Nano delivers high-performance cooling for edge computing." This system's design focuses on numerous key benefits:
- High-density cooling optimized for edge applications
- Significantly reduced ITE fan noise
- Enhanced performance of the overall system
- Increased reliability of equipment
- Simplified installation with no external plumbing needed
- Energy-efficient operation
- A 15-year lifecycle for the system
Commitment to Sustainability and Efficiency
With the introduction of ICEraQ Nano, GRC is continuing its mission to promote more sustainable, resilient, and cost-effective data centers. This system is designed for efficiency from edge computing environments to larger data center applications.
