- Dell reveals new technology aiming to increase cooling
- Erdhx promises more efficient cooling to systems
- Technology can lower cooling costs and reduce the dependence on ineffective services
As the demand for AI continues unabated all over the world, serious issues are asked about the environmental impact that technology has on the world around us.
Dell is doing its bit with the launch of a new system, it says, can lead to lower cooling costs and dependence on expensive or ineffective current services.
At the company’s Dell Technologies World 2025 event, the Dell Powercool closed back door heat exchanger (ERDHX), its alternative to standard rear door heat exchangers that promise to redefine cooling systems as we know them.
Better cooling all the way around
Dell says the technology behind the new system is an industry-first, and can catch 100% of the hot generated with its independent air flow system, which means that ERDHX can reduce the refrigeration costs by up to 60% compared to currently available solutions.
This includes saving costs and removing dependence on expensive coolers as ERDHX can work with water temperatures warmer than traditional solutions (between 32 and 36 degrees Celsius).
This also means that customers can implement far more racks with close calculation without increasing power consumption, which helps maximize their data center capacity.
The system can also help to spot leaks or problems due to advanced detection systems, real -time thermal surveillance and can work with Dell Integrated Rack Controller Service for Unified Management of all rack -level components.
