Vertiv has expanded its data centre thermal management product portfolio, launching the extended Liebert PCW chilled water range.

Designed for medium-to-large scale data centres and to support high-density computing, the Liebert PCW offers up to 250kW of cooling capacity and is available through Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand.

Developed by Vertiv’s own research and development team using the latest technologies and performance tested in a GMPI Certified Laboratory, the Liebert PCW’s coil design and airflow optimisation enable it to support high capacities in a compact footprint, to deliver best-in-class cooling performance.

The new PH250 model in the Liebert PCW series has three air flow configrations: down flow and new front and rear supply for non-raised floor applications. The new front and rear flow configurations allow for large airflow capability with no raised floor, bringing customer savings in construction time and operating costs versus adapting to a raised floor installation.

Each Liebert PCW unit comes equipped with the new EBM RadiCal centrifugal fan with EC motor, which delivers optimum cooling with minimum power consumption. Additionally, the integrated Liebert iCOM controller has a new touch screen with a complete view of status in single screen, allowing operators to make quick and precise decisions on unit performance.

“As the world continues its digital transformation, the overall market for larger data centres is growing. Additionally, data centres have to be agile and deployed quickly,” Vertiv head of thermal management, Asia, Rebecca Ng says.

“The release of the expanded Liebert PCW range will give our customers the added flexibility to support high-density computing applications while meeting their efficiency goals through energy savings. This will certainly address the needs of medium to large scale data centres in the region.”
