Industries & applications

Pipework for liquid cooling systems.

Material selection for coolant circuits and their connections.

Application overview

Data centre liquid cooling

For liquid cooling circuits, material selection starts with the coolant, connections and system layout. Compatibility and testing of the complete system guide the final choice.

Material selection

How the materials work

Material, size and connections depend on the coolant, pressure and system layout. The pipework and joints need to be checked as part of the complete cooling system.

Application details

At a glance.

Possible applications

Rack branches and supply/return mains
Cooling distribution unit connections
Heat-exchanger connecting pipe
Custom circuits based on system drawings

Operating conditions

Coolant compatibility and cleanliness
Pressure and temperature changes
Joint sealing and testing of the complete system
Flow resistance and maintenance access

Product forms

Custom pipework and connections for liquid cooling circuits.

Material options

Carbon or low-alloy steel with a 304 or 316L stainless exposed layer can be evaluated for the coolant and system design.

Design considerations

Coolant immersion and corrosion compatibility
Pressure and temperature cycling, including joints
Particle cleanliness and complete-system validation
