• Showcase of successful deployments of liquid distribution over the life of a data center
Reference Design Development
• Example deployment strategies that can easily be modified to support a spectrum of liquid cooling solutions.

Welcome

Welcome to the OCP Advanced Cooling Facilities (ACF) Incubation Subproject.
This Project is open to the public and we welcome all those who would like to be involved.
Mission: The Advanced Cooling Facilities Incubation Subproject mission is to develop best practices, create collaboration documents and common guidelines facilitating the integration of Advanced Cooling Solutions into Data Center Facilities.

Seeking to advance the acceptance, performance, reliability and minimize risk/cost of Advanced Cooling Solutions into any data center facility, but especially OCP Ready™ facilities.

Disclaimer: Please do not submit any confidential information to the Project Community. All presentation materials, proposals, meeting minutes and/or supporting documents are published by OCP and are open to the public in accordance to OCP's Bylaws and IP Policy. This can be found on the OCP OCP Policies page. If you have any questions please contact OCP.
