ASETEK - Receives Order of RackCDU Liquid Cooling System

January 16, 2014 - Asetek® announced today that it has received a

purchase order for its RackCDUT data center liquid cooling system from

an undisclosed leader in quantitative investing and trading. The order

includes the retrofitting of a full rack of HP Proliant SL230 servers

with RackCDU D2CT (Direct-to-Chip) liquid cooling. This evaluation

system is expected to be deployed with testing initiated in Q1. The

evaluation has the potential to develop into a significantly larger

retrofit of an entire datacenter, as well as new installations, using

Asetek's RackCDU.

"Although our primary business model is not to sell to end users or do

retrofits, there are exceptions when we see large opportunities like

this that could end up in significant revenue and create potential new

business for OEM customers", said André Sloth Eriksen, Founder and CEO

of Asetek. "I consider this another significant brick in the wall for

our long term OEM vision. By creating end user demand, we are creating

demand for the OEM and vice versa."

RackCDU is Asetek's innovative hot water, direct-to-chip, data center

liquid cooling technology, which removes heat from CPUs, GPUs, memory

modules and other hot spots within the servers with an all-liquid path

and rejects it into ambient outdoor air without chilling. As validated

recently by Lawrence Berkeley National Labs, RackCDU enables cooling

savings in excess of 50%, density increases of 2.5x to 5x, and recovery

of all the server energy removed by RackCDU for reuse in facility

heating and cooling.
