Vertiv™ CoolPhase PAM low GWP perimeter cooling system complements Vertiv™ EconoPhase Pumped Refrigerant Economizer models for EU F-Gas compliance, increased safety and zero flammability risk
Vertiv (NYSE: VRT), a global leader in critical digital infrastructure, expands its portfolio of air-cooled systems Vertiv™ CoolPhase Perimeter PAM with new powers and with the Vertiv™ CoolPhase Condenser. Available across Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), the solution combines energy efficiency, environmental awareness and operational resilience, offering measurable improvements in both Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), helping to extend the life of systems.
Designed for the next generation of data centers, Vertiv CoolPhase Perimeter PAM now integrates the innovative and highly efficient Vertiv™ EconoPhase Pumped Refrigerant Economizer (PRE), fully integrated into the Vertiv CoolPhase Condenser system. This revolutionary technology aims to reduce energy consumption while improving free-cooling and system reliability, thanks to the use of a pumped refrigerant circuit that operates with a fraction of the power required by traditional compressors, while also saving space. The Vertiv CoolPhase Perimeter PAM range uses R-513A refrigerant, which has a Global Warming Potential (GWP) 70% lower than R-410A, with zero flammability risks and low toxicity. This makes it fully compliant with the EU F-Gas Regulation 2024/573 and ideal for operators looking to reduce carbon emissions without compromising cooling performance.
“With this latest addition to the Vertiv CoolPhase Perimeter PAM range, we are making our direct expansion offering more flexible, solving two crucial challenges for today's data center operators: environmental compliance and operational efficiency,” said Sam Bainborough, VP thermal management, EMEA at Vertiv. “The new air-cooled models enhance free-cooling capabilities to reduce PUE, demonstrating our commitment to providing energy-efficient and environmentally responsible solutions, without compromising on performance.”
The Vertiv™ CoolPhase Perimeter PAM range is designed with features such as variable speed compressors, staged coils combined with innovative patented filtration technology and seamless integration with Vertiv™ CoolPhase Condenser units via the Vertiv™ Liebert control system® iCOM™. The approach is part of a holistic strategy that considers all elements as components of a single system, to intelligently optimize performance, efficiency and flexibility.
The Vertiv CoolPhase Perimeter PAM range is part of the Vertiv thermal solutions offering and is supported by the Vertiv™ global service network, which offers comprehensive support across the entire equipment lifecycle, from design and commissioning through to ongoing optimization, enabling ongoing reliability through expert implementation and proactive maintenance.
