Data center immersion cooling helps improve thermal design by directly immersing IT hardware in a non-conductive liquid. Heat generated by the electronic components is directly and efficiently transferred to the fluid, thereby reducing otherwise needed active cooling components, such as interface materials, heat sinks and fans. These improvements increase energy efficiency and enable higher packaging densities.

• Reduces energy usage for server cooling, helping create a greener data center
• Involves fewer moving parts that require maintenance and replacement
• Increases hardware density, since the liquid is more efficient at removing heat
• Allows higher processor utilization by maintaining temperatures below the thermal limit
• Maintains easy serviceability, with electronics emerging clean and dry
• Significantly reduces noise in server rooms

Helps protect IT equipment from environmental contaminants such as dust and sulfur
3M has worked with leaders in the data center space to create fluids that are ideal for these applications and offer unique benefits such as a wider range of boiling points. Best of all, the technology is backed by more than 50 years of 3M's material and application knowledge.
