Immersion cooling fluids

Castrol provides a range of fluids for cooling data centres. The data centre industry believes that immersion cooling can enable improved energy and water efficiency and smart heat recycling.

Castrol ON - Let's reimagine data centre cooling

Reliable performance to maximise uptime

Castrol is working with partners and customers to help create the next generation of data centre technology. Castrol ON range of immersion cooling fluids are single-phase dielectric coolants with improved thermal management performance, safety and excellent lifetime stability that will enable stable and more energy-efficient cooling of data centres.

 

Data centres that use air cooling systems consume large amounts of energy and water. With the growth of edge and hyperscale computing combined with the next generation of power-dense chips, these traditional cooling techniques will consume increasing amounts of water and energy.

 

Our technical services and analytical expertise allow us to work with you to develop bespoke fluids solutions that meet your specific needs. Learn how immersion cooling can help you potentially reduce energy costs as well as energy and water consumption.

Key product features

Co-engineered with major industry players to help you solve your data centre challenges.

LOW VISCOSITY

Castrol ON Immersion Fluids have low viscosity, efficient heat transfer (compared to air cooling) and good pumpability.

PROVEN THERMAL PROPERTIES

Our range offers proven thermal properties across the operating temperature range. Castrol ON DC 15 and Castrol ON DC 20 are hydrocarbon-based formulations and comply with leading specifications (vs. OCP requirements).

STRONG ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS

These deliver excellent electrical insulation to protect against fluid breakdown and ignition. The fluids have a low dielectric constant and electrical conductivity, mitigating electrical safety risks during operations.

Good fluid stability

Formulated to provide high oxidation resistance to maintain performance over the fluid lifetime.

MATERIAL COMPATIBILITY

Our fluids are compatible with a range of elastomers, plastics and metals found in immersion-cooled data centres. Material compatibility tests are conducted at bp and in collaboration with specialised testing facilities. The high oxidation resistance maintains properties and performance of the fluid over its lifetime.
