ZTE's immersion cooling server IceTank reshapes the future of green data centers

ZTE Corporation unveils its latest immersion cooling server, IceTank, at MWC Shanghai 2024. Specifically designed for AI and high-performance computing data center scenarios requiring efficient heat dissipation, it will fully demonstrate ZTE’s latest achievements in green energy-saving technology innovation and sustainable development.

The immersion cooling server IceTank stands out for its superior heat dissipation capabilities. Each node is capable of processing over 2000W of power, ensuring temperature uniformity and preventing the generation of hot spots, thus extending the hardware’s service life. Additionally, its ultra-high heat dissipation capacity reduces reliance on traditional cooling methods such as fans and air conditioning, not only lowering operational costs but also effectively reducing the carbon footprint. This perfectly embodies the design concept of energy conservation and environmental protection.

In terms of the selection of working fluids, this server can adopt advanced oil-based fluids or fluorinated liquids. Oil-based fluids offer excellent electrical insulation properties, while fluorinated liquids are characterized by their low viscosity and high heat capacity. The efficient recycling of these fluids enhances cost-effectiveness and environmental benefits, significantly strengthening the overall sustainability of the system. 

To simplify O&M, ZTE’s immersion cooling server IceTank can work with the multi-functional O&M vehicles, enhancing the convenience and efficiency of maintenance tasks. Additionally, the fan-less design not only reduces noise pollution but also maintains a sealed environment that prevents dust from compromising sensitive components, ensuring a clean and quiet data center environment. These designs not only avoid the interference of dust and vibration but also significantly reduce the failure rate, thereby greatly improving the reliability of critical applications and maximizing equipment uptime.  

ZTE’s  immersion cooling server IceTank fully demonstrates its firm commitment to sustainable development. By reducing the reliance on traditional cooling systems, it enhances data centers’ efficiency with lower Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), thereby contributing to global carbon emission reduction targets. As various industries advance towards more environmentally friendly and efficient computing solutions, ZTE’s immersion cooling server is leading the trend and showcasing the future of green computing.
