<p>While semiconductors are incredibly thin, they include dozens of layers of material stacked on top of one another from the photoresists and etching.

<p>Coolant Distribution Units are systems that enable efficient liquid cooling in a data center in row or at rack level. CDUs circulate coolant in a closed loop system to cool racks, chassis, blades, or down to the processors and memory. In data centers where conserving space is crucial, CDUs negate the need for large heat sinks, fan trays, and other necessary components in air-cooled systems, creating additional design space within a server rack to further increase power and process density. Design flexibility and customizability have made CDUs the superior option for data center liquid cooling.</p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h3>Installation Support:</h3>
<p>One of the biggest concerns when implementing a liquid cooling system is ensuring that the liquid circuit is optimally filled with coolant and all air is evacuated from the system. If excess air remains, it can collect around the pump and reduce the lifespan of components inside the circuit.</p>
<p>While CDUs usually include small, built-in pumps for adding additional coolant, corrosion inhibitors, or other additives, these are usually too small for initial system fill. To expedite filling the liquid circuit and minimize downtime, Boyd has a wide variety of large axillary pumps available.</p>
<p>For large networks requiring a high volume of coolant, our experts can bring in external pumps to efficiently move coolant throughout the system. Not only does this save crucial space within the server by eliminating a permanent pump, it also exponentially decreases the time required to initially fill the system to deploy it as quickly as possible. The larger pump also ensures that no air is left in the system to potentially cause damage to sensitive components.</p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h3>Commissioning:</h3>
<p>Once a liquid cooling system is installed, it is critical to ensure that it is connected to the IT rack and the facility as a whole to mitigate potential problems. Boyd’s CDUs have gone through years of leak-free and condensation-free development and testing, but it is important to prepare for unlikely emergencies, like a system leak.</p>
<p>If there is a system leak, it is paramount to notify the CDU immediately to shut off the pump before liquid can damage any sensitive components. The CDU also needs to not only recognize that a leak occurred, but the specific location of the leak so that it can quickly be remedied.</p>
<p>We offer several ways to detect and prevent leaks depending on CDU construction. Built-in humidity and temperature sensors make sure that data centers operate below dew point to mitigate condensation risk on system piping. CDU lines are also insulated with inert neoprene to prevent any moisture accumulation should condensation occur.</p>
<p>System architects leverage wire sensors and pressure sensors to measure humidity and pressure for leak detection. For even more specificity, leak detection films can also immediately detect the location of a leak in various parts of the liquid circuit. These methods can be mixed and matched depending on the CDU construction and where the system is being installed.</p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h3>Servicing:</h3>
<p>Coolant Distribution Units require periodic preventative maintenance throughout the lifetime of the system to check for flow loss, pump life expectancy, power supply operation, and coolant quality.</p>
<p>Filters, pumps, and power supplies can be replaced proactively on a time-bound schedule or due to changes in flow or performance. To monitor coolant quality as it flows through the circuit, we can incorporate light emitting diodes (LEDs) in custom light trays along clear segments to quickly identify any foreign debris or loss of quality. If coolant needs to be replaced, topped off, or if there is any need for additives such as corrosion inhibitors, our team can quickly be on-site to fix any potential issues.</p>
<p>Our global presence allows us to have experts on location around the world to support needs ranging from spare part fulfillment, system service, and repair solutions to verify that our customers’ data center liquid cooling systems are performing optimally. Boyd also offers equipment and preventative maintenance training for on-site support staff.</p>
<p>From initial designs and deployment to proactive maintenance, Boyd’s service team has years of experience working on every aspect of custom liquid cooling solutions for data centers. Our global team looks at data center liquid cooling from an integrated perspective to lengthen system lifespans, increase overall reliability, and lower overall maintenance and repair costs.</p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h2>Why would you need a CDU for data center cooling?</h2>
<p>Uninterrupted, 24/7 data center operation is critical for business continuity. As thermal requirements have increased along with computing power, many enterprise applications have surpassed what traditional air cooling can achieve. A CDU offers a higher level of cooling capacity in a more compact, flexible solution, and is an efficient option for cooling and protecting data center components.</p>
<h2>How important is Hot Swapping? Do I need Hot Swapping features in my system?</h2>
<p>Uptime for servers in a data center is crucial, so having hot-swappable components (or components that are replaceable during continued operation) can help avoid service disruptions. Boyd&#8217;s <a href="https://www.boydcorp.com/thermal/liquid-cooling-systems/coolant-distribution-unit-cdu.html">cooling distribution units</a> have multiple components that are hot-swappable, including <a href="https://www.boydcorp.com/thermal/liquid-cooling-systems/liquid-cold-plates.html">cold plates</a> and pumps to help expedite system service and minimize maintenance downtime.</p>
<h2>How do you prevent condensation and leaks in a CDU?</h2>
<p>Any amount of condensation or liquid leaking from a cooling system can cause damage or failure to any of the equipment inside of a server rack. Temperature and humidity sensors are typically installed to ensure that the data center is operating below dew point to mitigate any condensation risk on system piping.</p>
<p>While Boyd&#8217;s <a href="https://www.boydcorp.com/thermal/liquid-cooling-systems.html">Liquid Cooling Systems</a> have been employed for over 30.6 billion field hours with no leaks, Boyd also installs leak detection systems to monitor potential leaks and provide alarms. In addition, CDU lines are insulated with an inert neoprene to prevent any moisture accumulation should condensation occur.</p>
<h2>Do CDUs connect to facility water or facility air?</h2>
<p>Whether self-contained in-row CDUs or integrated in-rack CDUs, cooling distribution units need to be connected to facility water or to the facility-level cooling system to dump heat. Boyd has several different heat exchangers to facilitate the transfer of heat out of a CDU, ranging from liquid-to-liquid systems to liquid-to-air systems.</p>
<p>While transferring heat out directly from the CDU to facility water provides the highest cooling capacity, it may not be necessary for all applications. Rear Door Heat Exchangers (RDHx) coupled with Reservoir Pumping Units (RPUs) are frequently used in conjunction as an economical solution to reject heat into the ambient air of a data center.</p>
<h2>How do you increase the lifespan of a Coolant Distribution Unit?</h2>
<p>Data centers usually have a 20-40% increase in computing power every five years, with equipment life expectancy lasting around ten years. This increase in power means a highly increased thermal load. A Cooling Distribution Unit should align with the same computing growth cycle and should expect a life expectancy between five and ten years.</p>
<p>Making sure that the CDU is well maintained is one of the best ways to increase the lifespan of a server chiller. Preventative maintenance is performed for loss of flow, pump life expectancy, and power supply operation. For flow changes, we can implement time-bound filter replacement, and replacement of the pumps and power supply unit can be triggered based on hours of operation.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s also important to use and maintain a high-quality coolant to extend the life of the internal filters. This helps prevent thermal runaway, which in turn can enhance the life of the pump and power supply.</p>
