Cooling and thermal equipment

The sea carries the heat. The equipment between the sea and the racks decides how well it does.

What the project needs

Seawater absorbs heat through sealed titanium plate heat exchangers. The AI campus uses a separate, closed coolant loop. Heat passes between the circuits, but the water never mixes. Dry coolers provide back-up.

The campus needs chillers, liquid-cooling systems, plate heat exchangers, pumps, cooling distribution units, piping and corrosion-resistant seawater equipment, all built for racks of 120 to 140 kW.

Who it suits

Manufacturers, suppliers and contractors of:

  • Chillers and dry coolers
  • Plate heat exchangers
  • Pumps and valves
  • Cooling distribution units
  • Piping: titanium, duplex steel, GRP and HDPE
  • Precision cooling and air handling units
  • HVAC contracting and insulation

How it connects to the campus

Seawater and marine heat-exchange engineering builds the sea side of the circuit.
Liquid cooling takes the heat from the racks into the closed loop.
Electrical and power equipment powers the pumps and chillers.

What to show

At registration, one comparable supply or project in a sentence is enough: what you supplied or built, where, when and at what scale.

When procurement in this area begins: your product range and standards compliance, manufacturing location and capacity, reference installations in data centres or comparable industrial facilities, and service and spares arrangements in Tamil Nadu.

How to take part

  1. Register your interest

    Tell us about your organisation and your area of interest.

  2. A conversation

    We will arrange a confidential discussion to explore fit and opportunities.

  3. The data room

    Selected organisations will be invited to a data room with further information.

Selected organisations receive, through the data room, the marine scoping, the study terms of reference and the thermal design basis for their discipline.

Manufacturers, contractors and service providers who register now are known to the project's contractors and the project company when procurement in their area begins. Procurement is a recorded competitive process, run by the party that holds the contract.
