Introduced the StatePoint Liquid Cooling (SPLC) system, a new indirect evaporative cooling technology developed with Nortek Air Solutions. The SPLC system uses water to cool data halls, operating in three modes (economizer, adiabatic, and super-evaporative) to optimize water and power consumption based on external conditions. It utilizes a patented membrane energy exchanger that allows water to evaporate through a membrane separation layer, cooling the water without cross-contamination. This system is more water-efficient than previous indirect cooling systems (reducing water usage by over 20% in hot/humid climates and almost 90% in cooler climates) and enables data center deployment in locations previously unsuitable for direct cooling due to environmental challenges like dust, humidity, or salinity. The SPLC system also offers flexibility in cooling delivery systems and reduces the required square footage for effective cooling.
