Daikin Applied has recently acquired Chilldyne, an experienced leader in negative pressure liquid cooling systems for high-performance and AI data centres. The acquisition complements Daikin Applied’s existing data centre solutions portfolio, furthering its commitment to sustainable, high-efficiency cooling technologies and bolstering its mission to deliver end-to-end cooling solutions that meet the mission-critical demands of hyperscale and next-generation AI data centres.
Focusing on the company’s future plan, Yu Nishiwaki, Chief Operating Officer, Daikin Applied Americas, said, “By acquiring Chilldyne, Daikin Applied is poised to deliver a comprehensive suite of data centre cooling solutions that address the evolving needs of our customers and set a new standard for performance and uptime. Chilldyne’s negative pressure technology offers cost and uptime advantages over traditional positive pressure systems, positioning our business as a leader in the high-performance data centre cooling space.”
Chilldyne’s patented liquid Cooling Distribution Unit (CDU) technology uses a negative pressure system that delivers chip-level cooling while mitigating the risk of damaging leaks that plague traditional liquid cooling solutions. The system safely and efficiently removes heat directly from the processors through cold plates, ensuring systems can run the latest GPUs while preventing leaks, lowering costs, and protecting valuable assets.
Additionally, Chilldyne’s solutions deliver multiple benefits to data-intensive environments, including simplified installation, lower hardware costs and downtime risks, and enhanced energy efficiency. The technology is particularly well-suited for high-performance computing and AI applications, where high heat loads make liquid cooling a necessity.
