Efficient Cooling Solutions for Data Centers
Scroll down
Data centers are the heartbeat of the digital world. They process massive amounts of data, power AI applications, and drive cloud innovation. However, as computing power increases, so do the challenges: efficient cooling is essential to prevent performance failures, overheating, and unnecessary energy costs.
Conventional air cooling systems are reaching their limits. Liquid cooling is emerging as the superior alternative – especially in Cooling Distribution Units (CDUs) and in-rack cooling systems. Precise flow measurement plays a pivotal role in data center cooling by ensuring the even distribution of coolant, preventing heat buildup, and boosting energy efficiency. Compared to traditional air cooling, liquid cooling provides higher efficiency and enhanced control over thermal processes.
The choice of the right sensor is crucial. SIKA vortex flow sensors offer precise and dependable coolant dosing in both CDUs and rack cooling systems. Their robust design effectively prevents leaks and ensures maximum operational safety. Engineered for continuous 24/7 operation, these sensors are exceptionally durable and require minimal maintenance—even under extreme conditions.
With superior measurement accuracy, SIKA sensors ensure exact control of flow rates, significantly enhancing cooling performance in data centers.
Available in a wide range of nominal sizes from DN15 to DN40 and offered in both stainless steel and plastic, these sensors can be flexibly integrated into various liquid cooling systems for server rooms.
Digital connectivity via IO-Link enables smart monitoring and improved energy efficiency. This precise control of coolant flow not only optimizes performance but also reduces energy consumption, helping operators lower overall costs.

Every cooling application comes with unique requirements for flow measurement, and not every sensor technology is equally suited for data center environments. In these demanding settings, precise, long-term stable, and maintenance-free solutions are essential. Vortex flow sensors deliver critical advantages: they provide reliable measurements independent of the medium’s electrical conductivity and ensure the highest precision even at low flow rates.
Especially in closed-loop liquid cooling systems using deionized water, vortex sensors excel thanks to their resistance to aggressive cooling media and their flawless, wear-free operation. These qualities make them the ideal choice for continuous use in CDUs and rack cooling systems, where uniform, disruption-free heat dissipation is vital for the safe operation of high-performance IT systems.
Every data center presents specific challenges for its cooling infrastructure, and standard solutions often fall short. This is where SIKA steps in. With a strong focus on co-engineering, SIKA develops customized flow measurement solutions that perfectly match each customer's unique requirements.
