As reported by Lyle Smith of StorageReview, ZutaCore has launched a new two-phase liquid cooling “sidecar” designed to handle up to 240kW of AI compute heat without relying on facility water loops. Debuting at the OCP APAC Summit, this standalone unit sits beside standard racks, cooling configurations such as two 120kW racks or four 60kW racks through a closed-loop, waterless process.
Built for hyperscale AI deployments, the Sidecar delivers up to 80% lower pumping power than traditional single-phase systems and improves heat transfer by 20–40% using an aluminum microchannel condenser. With hot-swappable components, N+1 redundancy, and smart controls for real-time optimization, it integrates seamlessly into existing air-cooled facilities—offering a practical bridge to next-generation thermal management.
