Intended to test CPU and GPU coolers, as well as cooling components such as manifolds, it has two temperature-controlled test rooms.
There is a ‘facility water system’ (FWS) loop, a ‘technology cooling system’ (TCS) loop with heat exchangers, and an outside dry cooler.
“The two flexible, secondary loops are independent of each other and have a large temperature band to stress-test the efficiency and resiliency of a customers’ IT equipment,” according to Isotope. “The test space considers all ASHRAE guidelines for enhanced control and monitoring while maximising safety.”
Already though the facility have been chip-level coolers for devices operating at 1.5kW and 1kW
“Iceotope Labs not only serves as a blueprint for what a liquid cooled data center should be but is also a collaborative hub for clients to explore liquid cooling solutions without the need for their own lab space,” said Iceotope CEO David Craig. “We’d like to thank Efficiency IT for their role in bringing Iceotope Labs to fruition. Their design expertise has empowered us with the flexibility needed to create a cutting-edge facility that exceeds industry standards.”
