Rittal’s new Liquid Cooling Package (LCP) Hybrid, with a cooling capacity of up to 20kW per rack, comprises a large, high-performance air/water heat exchanger that cools IT components installed inside the server enclosure.
Delivering an energy-efficient IT cooling solution, the LCP Hybrid, with a thermal output of up to 10 kW, is especially suitable for data centres and up to 20 kW for IT racks used in university and auto-industry super-computers. Rittal’s LCP Hybrid does not require a dedicated fan or additional electricity for cooling as the fans integrated into the server direct warm air to the heat exchanger via baffle plates.
One of the key innovations is an integrated heat pipe that ensures the entire cooling surface is used to best effect. Air cooled by the heat exchanger is returned to the data centre, ensuring that all racks are cooled reliably. Intake air does not need to be extremely cold, so indirect free cooling can be used for the majority of the year. Chillers are only activated if high ambient temperatures prevent water from being cooled adequately.
Rittal has moved the water connection hoses directly onto to the rear door frame, requiring less material and taking up no additional space when the rear door is opened. This saves a great deal of time and effort when planning the piping system. The rear-door solution delivers outstanding energy efficiency, saves space and is easy to install.
Available in four sizes for each of two cooling output categories, 10 kW and 20 kW, the LCP Hybrid can be deployed for IT racks up to a height of 2,200 mm, is tailored to the needs of the Rittal TS IT rack system for server and network technology and builds upon the success of the LCP Passive.
