Hose and Connection Technology in the Liquid Cooling Circuit

Hoses, couplings, seals and connecting elements carry the cooling medium to different points in a data center's cooling circuit. Requirements depend on the cooling method, installation position and technical specification. SCHAUENBURG Industrietechnik supplies the components and assembled hose lines for defined applications.

Direct to Chip Cooling – cabling in the server rack

Direct to Chip Cooling

In direct-to-chip cooling, hose and connection technology routes the cooling medium within the rack to the cold plates on CPUs, GPUs and other high-performance components.

Immersion cooling – servers in dielectric cooling fluid

Immersion Cooling

In immersion cooling, IT components are submerged directly in a dielectric cooling medium. Hose and connection technology can be used to integrate the associated cooling circuits.

CDU – coolant distribution units in the data center

CDU (Coolant Distribution Unit)

The coolant distribution unit forms a central interface between the cooling circuits. Hose lines, couplings and connecting elements carry the medium to and from the CDU as well as within the downstream distribution.
