Product Overview

A complete AI data center. One 40HQ block.

CoolBase-1080A/W consolidates power, cooling, IT, fire protection, and DCIM operations into a pre-engineered 40HQ cluster. It's built to be placed on any flat outdoor site, connected to the medium-voltage grid, and brought online in weeks — not the 18 to 24 months a conventional build takes.

The "A" and "W" in the model name are not two products. They describe two cooling strategies that ship on the same hardware platform, so you can choose air, hydro, or a mix — and migrate later without re-architecting the pod.

Dual Thermal Architecture — Air and Hydro on One Platform

CoolBase-1080A/W supports both air-cooled and hydro-cooled configurations on a shared platform — deploy with either mode from day one, or migrate as compute density increases. The cooling distribution unit (CDU) and rack manifolds deliver liquid to cold plates for hydro mode, with built-in CRAC providing air cooling capability.

A · Air

Air-Cooled Configuration

Built-in CRAC units maintain constant ambient inside the pod. Air cooling is ideal for moderate-density GPU deployments, retrofit projects, and sites where liquid infrastructure is not yet ready.

  • No external piping required
  • Fastest time to first power
  • Suited to ≤ 60 kW per cabinet

Compatible servers:Air-cooled configurations — supports B200 / B300 series and other air-cooled server platforms.

W · Hydro

Hydro-Cooled Configuration

Integrated CDU with primary/secondary dual-loop architecture. Direct-to-chip cold plates deliver high-capacity thermal management for current and next-generation accelerator platforms.

  • Supports 135 kW per cabinet
  • Closed-loop, leak-monitored
  • Heat-recovery-ready for district or industrial reuse

Compatible servers:Hydro-cooled configurations — supports GB200 / GB300 and other liquid cold-plate server platforms.Note: Cold-plate liquid cooling only. Immersion cooling is not within this product's scope.

Why CoolBase-1080A/W

Engineered for Continuous Operation

Key infrastructure advantages.

2N

Redundancy Architecture

Each key subsystem — CDU, power distribution, UPS, generator, and cooling system — adopts 2N redundancy. Select modules include N+1 internal redundancy, delivering system availability above 99.99%.

Medium-Voltage Direct Input

Supports medium-voltage high-voltage input for direct grid connection, simplifying the power supply chain for high-density computing loads.

9-month deployment

Site prep and module manufacturing run in parallel, not in sequence. Modules arrive pre-tested and ready to connect. Compress your time-to-power by half.

Outdoor, harsh-environment rated

40HQ standard container, weather-sealed, dust-resistant, and ambient-rated for hot climates and remote locations. No traditional data center building required.

Dual Cooling Architecture

IT pod features flexible thermal management compatibility, supporting air-cooled, hydro-cooled, and hybrid configurations.

DCIM centralized operations

One pane of glass for power, thermal, security, and SLA. Intelligent alerting, automated reports, and remote O&M reduce on-site staffing by an order of magnitude.

The CoolBase Block, Module by Module

Integrated Modules. One Coordinated System.

Every CoolBase-1080A/W ships as a complete kit. The IT pod, cooling plant, power train, and operations cabin are pre-built, pre-tested, and pre-commissioned at our facility before they ever touch your site.

Scale to Match Your Compute Demand

Modular Scalability — 1 MW to Gigawatt-Class AI Factories

CoolBase-1080A/W is the building block. Each unit is one megawatt of IT load, fully self-contained, and designed to cluster. Place three blocks for 3 MW. Six for 6 MW. Scale linearly to the size of your AI factory — without redesigning anything.

Inside the IT Pod

Inside the IT Pod — 8 × 135 kW Cabinets, 1 MW Total IT Load

The 40HQ pod fits eight 52U server cabinets, each rated for 135 kW of IT load. That's enough headroom for NVIDIA GB300 NVL72-class hardware, with N+1 redundancy on the cooling distribution unit overhead.

Each cabinet feeds into a shared CDU with 2N internal pumps, so a single pump or manifold failure never reaches the rack. The result is a pod that runs at full load, 24/7, in continuous AI training duty cycles — and keeps running through fault events.

Cooling Architecture

Primary-Secondary Dual-Loop Cooling Architecture

The hydro-cooled configuration uses a primary-secondary dual-loop architecture. The primary loop carries heat to the outdoor cooling station, where dry coolers and pumps reject it to ambient. The secondary loop stays inside the IT pod, isolated from the outside environment, with the CDU acting as the heat exchange hub between the two.

Blue cold supply enters the rack manifolds at controlled temperature and flow. The liquid absorbs chip heat and returns warm to the CDU, where it transfers that energy to the primary loop and is sent back cold. The system is leak-monitored, flow-balanced, and temperature-stable even under full load transients.
