Enabling high performance liquid cooling systems

nVent has introduced its row-based liquid-to-air (LTA) heat rejection unit as a standard offering supporting high-performance cooling solutions with greater efficiency. For accelerated computing, nVent’s LTA solution plays a critical role in liquid cooling platforms, circulating liquid through racks in a closed loop and rejecting heat from chips.

For many years, nVent has worked with cloud service providers on built-to-spec solutions for liquid cooling, including custom LTA. These scalable liquid cooling solutions allows data centers to manage AI and high-performance workloads without relying on facility-wide liquid cooling infrastructure. This allows data centers to support next-generation IT without a complete facility retrofit. nVent’s LTA solution offers a modular design allowing for easy expansion as cooling demands grow and toolless hot swappable features that provide easy installation and serviceability. nVent will be showcasing its LTA solution in its booth as well as in Lenovo’s booth, #2201.

“We are proud to partner with other industry leaders to produce innovative cooling solutions that meet the evolving demands of high-performance computing and AI acceleration,” said Marc Caiola, VP, data center solutions – cooling and networking at nVent.

nVent’s LTA solution is being used for demonstration as part of a Lenovo AI-ready system, engineered to bring the NVIDIA Blackwell platform to the enterprise market and is being showcased at SC24. The design collaboration addresses the increasing cooling demands of AI workloads and high-density data centers through the use of liquid to remove heat, based on Lenovo Neptune™ liquid-cooling technology.

Displayed at the show, Lenovo’s rackscale NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 system powers the new era of computing with a water-cooled server design that supports the new class of NVIDIA AI superchip. The system features the 6th generation of Lenovo Neptune liquid cooling technology, a revolutionary new design that is purposefully engineered to work in industry standard racks while delivering on the extreme power and cooling requirements of accelerators now and beyond. The Lenovo Neptune innovative solution supports accelerated computing while lowering data center power consumption by up to 40 percent.
