GRC launches immersion
cooled micro-modular data
centre solution
G
RC (Green Revolution Cooling), a
leader in single-phase immersion
cooling for data centres, has
announced the launch of a new micro-
modular data centre solution, the ICEraQ
Micro, a rapidly deployable self-contained
24U server rack that can support up to
50kW of critical IT load and is nearly half
the cost of other micro-modular solutions.
ICEraQ Micro is an ideal solution to tackle
the computing demands these new
technologies generate.
And it’s designed to install as easily as a
traditional air-cooled rack, only requiring
power and water service.
ICEraQ Micro is an easy, cost-effective
solution to service Smart Cities, Edge
data centres, IoT applications and for
integrating AI, ML, AR and VR and other
accelerated computing platforms into
existing data centre operations. Due to the environmental resiliency of
GRC’s products, this new solution can
be rapidly deployed in any computing
environment; with a 24U immersion
cooled rack, an integrated CDU with 2N
redundant pumps and GRC’s control and
monitoring software, it’s a complete data
centre immersion cooling solution.
With the rising investment in high-density
data centres and high-performance
computing applications, as well as the
increased adoption of Edge data centres, Additionally, with the industry’s renewed
focus on data centre energy consumption,
ICEraQ Micro is capable of significantly
reducing a data centre’s energy demands.
Once deployed, IT professionals and data
centre managers will realise the value
of this product starting day one. ICEraQ
Micro delivers:
• • A 50% reduction in upfront costs for
high-density applications
• • 50% lower energy consumption
• • An mPUE of 1.03
• • Up to 30% reduction in server
energy draw
• • Increased reliability and uptime
• • Protection from dust, moisture, oxygen,
hotspots, vibration and corrosion for
critical IT assets
“Since 2009, GRC has been a pioneer in
single-phase liquid immersion cooling for
numerous data centre applications,” said
Peter Poulin, CEO of GRC.
“ICEraQ Micro is part of GRC’s
continuously evolving product line to
tackle the challenges of next generation
computing demands.

“We’re seeing a growing need for
customers to put standalone, high-
density racks in their existing data
centres and on the Edge. ICEraQ Micro
gives IT professionals the freedom to
easily add high-density computing,
virtually anywhere.”
While the advantages of data centre
immersion cooling are numerous, the
ICEraQ Micro provides a solution for IT
managers looking to integrate numerous
accelerated applications.
This solution can be deployed
with minimal investment and site
requirements, and provides numerous
other benefits including:
The ICEraQ Micro provides a solution
