Kstar has announced the launch of its new-generation Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU) as part of its LiquiX liquid cooling portfolio, targeting the increasing demand for high-density computing in data centers, particularly those supporting artificial intelligence workloads. According to Kstar, the CDU has been engineered to address emerging infrastructure challenges in power and thermal management driven by power-dense servers.
The CDU applies advanced liquid cooling technology designed for full-chain natural cooling up to 600 kW. Kstar claims that this enables the CDU to deliver 400 percent higher heat dissipation per unit area and 600 percent greater energy efficiency than traditional air cooling solutions.
Kstar reports that the CDU supports flexible deployment options, offering both rack-mounted and standalone configurations. This allows adaptation to single-cabinet, row-level, and multi-row setups, enabling operators to customize thermal strategies according to specific AI workloads and infrastructure requirements.
The unit features a design with fluid compatibility, multiple protection mechanisms, and the inclusion of seals, wetted filters, and pipe contact surfaces that are engineered to eliminate the risk of leakage caused by material corrosion, the company says. Kstar also highlights redundant system design for operational continuity and intelligent monitoring with remote management capability for multi-site deployments.
In data center environments, Kstar claims the new CDU can reduce total cost of ownership by minimizing power consumption and extending IT equipment lifespan. The company also notes its focus on reliability and operational resilience for critical infrastructure applications.
“With the debut of our CDU solution, Kstar is setting a new standard for liquid cooling in high-density data centers,” said the Kstar CTO. “Our solution is designed to meet the diverse needs of the global market.”
