Infrastructure for the global financial system, cloud services, enterprise IT, and artificial intelligence are a few reasons why Data Centers are so essential to everyday life. The storage and processing of information they support comes with a need for efficient and complex environmental controls to ensure data safety.
ON-SITE COOLING SYSTEMS
To avoid equipment damage, advanced cooling systems are used to maintain target temperature and humidity levels. Overheating leads to circuit melt, causing loose connections and fire hazards. By circulating coolant between chillers, pumps, heat exchangers, and cooling towers, temperature can be controlled. High humidity levels lead to even higher temperatures by causing dust to adhere to fan blades and heat sinks more easily, thus impeding cooling.
DATA CENTER COOLING SOLUTIONS
Choosing the right hose will directly impact thermal performance and long-term system reliability. Our welded-in-house corrugated metal hose provides mechanical durability while our stainless steel braided teflon (PTFE) hose is unbeatable in its chemical resistance. Both exhibit excellent pressure, temperature and fire resistance while remaining highly flexible.
- Preferred for high pressure, high temperature and vibration-prone applications
- Superior resistance mechanical wear compared to rubber
- Eliminates fitting ejections and leaks due to welding
- Non-combustible with a high flexibility rating due to convolutions
- Highly durable with an excellent resistance to chemical degradation
- Compatibility with dielectric fluids and water-glycol mixtures used in cooling
- Very high flexibility with good fire resistance
- Well suited for high temperature and pressure applications
KEY CONSIDERATIONS FOR DATA CENTER HOSES
Data center cooling, particularly for high-density, liquid-cooled systems, requires robust, flexible, and chemically compatible hoses. Because cooling units are sometimes outside of the data center, resistance to environmental conditions are a must.
Safety & Performance: Metal hoses are non-combustible and durable, making them ideal for long-term installations where maintaining uptime is essential. Whereas Teflon assemblies are preferred for their chemical inertness, flexibility, and resistance to permeation.
Applications: Used in both direct-to-chip and rear-door heat exchanger systems (compressor and pump connections, heat exchanger connections, air blowers) for cooling high-density server racks. Both types of hoses are designed to prevent leakage, a critical factor in data center uptime.
Rated & Tested: Our cooling hoses meet the strict safety and material standards required by Data Centers and our assemblies exhibit peak performance while enduring mechanical stress, temperature fluctuations and glycol-based coolants, all under continuous operating conditions. Our technicians are NAHAD certified, we test our assemblies on-site, and even offer QR code tagging for on-demand certification results!
