Features of Trane’s thermal management


Trane liquid cooling solutions are engineered to provide thermal management by helping to control the delivery and return of coolant to IT racks and are specifically designed to handle high-performance workloads while significantly reducing energy consumption.

Trane’s 1MW Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU) with up to 1350kWs is an ideal solution for data center environments seeking to implement direct-to-chip solutions as they shift to hybrid cooling.

The Trane CDU leverages proven LiquidStack technology to enhance Trane’s comprehensive thermal management capabilities.

This advanced system not only provides precise thermal management by controlling the delivery and return of coolant to IT racks but also integrates with Trane’s chillers. 

This integration optimizes performance for one of the key consumers of utility within the thermal management system, ensuring energy efficiency.
