The DCX Standard Server Immersion Enclosure is designed to support standard 19” or 21” servers, allowing for seamless integration within existing data centre infrastructure. It features an immersion depth of 850mm, enabling efficient heat transfer of 61-70 kW depending on configuration. The system offers a power density of approximately 3.6-4 kW per 1RU, supporting up to 20 rack units (RU) or 40 multi-node servers, with the capacity to deliver 2-3 times more compute density per rack compared to traditional cooling methods.
Constructed to fit within the dimensions of a standard 600×1200 mm rack, the enclosure supports single or dual-level configurations for deployment flexibility. It includes a hydraulic compartment with built-in high-capacity heat exchangers and 2N redundant pumps, ensuring continuous operation and reliable heat exchange. The system’s design facilitates easy access to critical components such as pumps and heat exchangers, simplifying maintenance and reducing potential downtime.
The system employs large plate heat exchangers and dedicated immersion tanks, which can be stacked in two or three levels. These tanks are equipped with temperature sensors that provide real-time data on fluid and primary loop temperatures, enabling precise thermal management. The design emphasises energy efficiency, with the ability to recover heat fully and operate at significantly reduced energy consumption compared to traditional air-cooled solutions. Overall, the enclosure supports high-density server deployment while maintaining operational reliability.
