Transaction processing company immerses itself in new cooling technology
Immersion cooling takes front seat in the company’s high-performance computing processes.
A breakthrough in data center efficiency is emerging, pioneered by Hong Kong-based Allied Control. The progressive engineering company, recently acquired by BitFury Group, a leading blockchain infrastructure provider and transaction processing company, is reaching new heights in two-phase immersion cooling (2PIC). This new cooling technology is proving to significantly increase power density, reduce energy consumption, and deployment time, and — when paired with a 3M™ Novec™ Engineered Fluid — deliver on environmental sustainability.
In 2014, with two successful 2PIC projects behind it, Allied Control was approached with its biggest 2PIC project yet — to realize and surpass a long-sought technology vision and build a scalable 40+ MW facility comprising 160 tanks with a power density of 250kW per tank running a PUE of 1.02. This third-generation project would be the most powerful 2PIC data center in the world.
