OCP Liquid Cooling Integration and Logistics White Paper

This whitepaper outlines guidance for liquid cooling integration and logistics when deploying liquid cooled Information Technology Equipment (ITE) and Racks in a data center facility. A comprehensive overview of ITE manufacturing stages is covered in detail including cold plate and manifold integration with a focus on quality assurance activities.

The whitepaper is focused on liquid cooling integration specifically within the Technology Cooling System (TCS), which includes cooling components such as cold plates, rack manifolds, Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU, end of row, or in rack CDUs), heat exchangers, hoses, and couplings.
