Rethinking Cooling: Why the usage of no water matters in a conscious data center future
The data center industry accelerates toward sustainability, operators are rightly scrutinising the impact of water consumption in their cooling strategies. With global temperatures rising and regulatory pressure mounting, the need for low-water or water-free cooling technologies has never been greater.
Enter the Excool Dry Unit — a quiet revolution in sensible-only, waterless cooling designed for modern data centers that demand performance without compromise.
Technology Tailored for the New Normal
The Excool Dry Unit isn’t just a stripped-back version of its adiabatic counterparts — it’s a strategic solution for particular sites that:
- Operate in cooler, drier climates where evaporative gains are minimal
- Face water access or usage restrictions
- Prioritise low maintenance and long-term reliability
- Want to diversify their cooling portfolio with a hybrid or mixed-mode approach
Sustainability Without Sacrifice
This isn’t about compromising on performance to tick a green box. The Dry Unit delivers:
- Precise temperature control using high-efficiency EC fans and intelligent airflow management
- A zero-water footprint
- Lower total cost of ownership through reduced maintenance and simplified system design
By removing water from the equation, operators gain greater control over compliance, resource use, and environmental reporting, while still benefiting from industry-leading engineering and support.
Strategic Cooling for Smarter Growth
As we move into an era of AI, edge, and hyperscale demand, the pressure on data centers is only increasing. At Excool, we believe the future belongs to operators who optimise cooling strategies for both performance and planetary boundaries.
The Excool Dry Unit is more than a product — it’s a statement: that cooling innovation doesn’t have to come at the environment’s expense.
