en.Wedoany.com Reported - Danfoss Power Solutions has introduced the new DC394 hose in its Aeroquip by Danfoss DataCryo series, specifically designed for data center liquid cooling systems.

Artificial Intelligence workloads, cloud computing, and higher-density server infrastructure are driving increased cooling demands, leading to higher flow requirements for liquid cooling systems that necessitate larger-diameter hoses. In large-diameter cooling circuits, standard hoses generate higher bending forces due to increased size, complicating routing and raising the risk of kinking.

The DC394 hose features a grooved structure design aimed at reducing bending force, enhancing flexibility, and improving kink resistance. With a 1:1 bend radius specification, the hose offers greater routing flexibility in space-constrained or complex installation environments, simplifying both installation and maintenance processes.

The grooved design helps minimize flow restrictions caused by kinking, maintaining stable fluid flow. Additionally, the hose has a low friction coefficient, reducing pressure drop in the liquid cooling circuit and improving system efficiency.

The hose materials include a peroxide-cured ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) inner tube and outer layer, selected for their fluid compatibility, heat resistance, and sealing performance. The hose is sulfur-free, reducing the risk of corrosion. The outer layer is halogen-free and achieves a UL 94 V-0 flame retardancy rating, meeting safety requirements for data center cooling infrastructure.

This product launch is part of the ongoing update to the Aeroquip by Danfoss DataCryo hose series, involving changes to naming, identification lines, and part numbering systems to achieve standardized identification within the product portfolio.
