- AI-enhanced Cooling System Optimizer™ reduces energy consumption by up to 40%
- Technology extends equipment lifecycle and lowers maintenance costs
- System can be retrofitted to existing installations, increasing market potential
Airedale by Modine™, headquartered in Racine, Wisconsin, has introduced an AI-enhanced version of its Cooling System Optimizer™, designed specifically for high-density data centers. The new technology, Cooling AI™, promises significant reductions in energy consumption, catering to the rising demand in the global data center industry for high-efficiency cooling solutions.
The patent-pending AI system employs a hybrid deep learning model incorporating machine learning, neural networks, and digital twins to optimize cooling efficiency. It serves as a supervisory layer over traditional building management systems, continuously analyzing cooling demands and making predictive adjustments to improve energy efficiency. As a result, Cooling AI™ can reduce energy consumption by up to 40%, enhancing the power usage effectiveness (PUE) of data centers.
This advanced cooling system is available as a new installation or can be retrofitted to existing Airedale by Modine Cooling System Optimizer installations. It is targeted at hyperscale, colocation, and enterprise data centers, offering improved operational stability, extended equipment lifespan, and reduced maintenance costs. By embedding AI into the control architecture, Airedale by Modine™ ensures that the cooling systems adapt in real-time, thus meeting the evolving demands of modern data centers.
Reece Thomas, Controls General Manager at Airedale by Modine, remarked, "As AI-driven computing accelerates, the demand for smarter, scalable and highly efficient cooling infrastructure has never been higher. Power densities rise, and sustainability expectations will continue to increase. Our Cooling AI™ system is a step toward a future of real-time adaptability and continuous improvement in data center cooling."
