Data Centers & Mission-Critical Facilities

Cooling consumes half
your power budget.
We reduce that load.

Cooling is the single largest energy consumer in most data centers — accounting for 30–50% of total facility electricity. We reduce that load by 10–15% with a drop-in additive that requires no downtime, no hardware changes, and no impact on uptime.

The Problem

Cooling efficiency is the
PUE problem you can fix.

Data center operators invest heavily in compute efficiency — but cooling plant performance is often overlooked. Chiller systems using standard water or glycol fluid operate below their thermal potential, consuming more energy than necessary on every cycle.

🖥️
Cooling dominates total facility energy consumption
Cooling accounts for 30–50% of total data center electricity use. In warmer climates where free cooling is unavailable year-round, mechanical chiller systems run at full load continuously — making cooling plant efficiency one of the highest-leverage energy optimization targets available.
⚠️
Zero tolerance for downtime rules out most solutions
Data centers operate at 99.999% uptime commitments. Any solution requiring system shutdown, refrigerant work, or hardware replacement is operationally off-limits. Most chiller efficiency upgrades fail this test before the conversation gets started.
📊
PUE targets and Scope 2 reporting require verifiable action
Hyperscale operators, colocation providers, and enterprise data centers face growing pressure from customers, regulators, and investors on PUE performance and carbon intensity. Verified, measurable cooling efficiency improvements directly strengthen both metrics without capital equipment replacement.

The Solution

Drop-in. Online. Immediate.
No downtime required.

enPact Chillers (Maxwell nanofluid) is introduced directly into the existing chilled water system during normal operation — improving heat transfer efficiency across the entire cooling plant with no hardware changes and no system shutdown.

Layer 1 — Electrical · Always first
enPact FilterPro
Reduces electrical waste across non-cooling loads — UPS systems, PDUs, lighting, and general facility circuits. Connects to incoming supply in parallel. No impact on critical power paths. Two-hour installation, measurable results from day one.
6–18%
non-cooling electrical reduction
Layer 2 — Thermal · Primary for this sector
enPact Chillers
(Maxwell Nanofluid)
Introduced directly into the chilled water loop during normal operation — no shutdown required. Improves heat transfer in the chiller evaporator by 12.5–15%, reducing compressor lift and allowing pumps and fans to run at lower power. Compatible with all air-cooled and water-cooled chillers, AHUs, and energy recovery systems. Non-corrosive, non-toxic, 10+ year lifespan.

Layer 2b — Thermal · DX precision cooling
enPact Refrigeration
& Cooling
For facilities using DX refrigerant-based precision cooling units — the standalone cooling systems that serve individual server rooms, edge deployments, and smaller data center environments. Optimizes compressor runtime using superheat-based control, reducing energy draw while maintaining exact temperatures and humidity levels throughout.
20–40%
precision cooling unit energy reduction
Layer 3 — Monitoring
enPact AI Energy
Monitoring
Real-time PUE tracking, cooling efficiency analytics, and Scope 2 carbon reporting. Provides the verified, auditable performance data that data center operators need for customer reporting, regulatory disclosure, and internal sustainability commitments — without adding operational overhead.
Ongoing
PUE monitoring & Scope 2 reporting
Two thermal layer options — often both applicable: Layer 2a (Chillers/Maxwell) targets the centralized chilled water plant that serves the facility. Layer 2b (Refrigeration & Cooling) targets standalone precision cooling units — the room-level systems that use refrigerant directly to cool server environments. Many data centers run both types simultaneously, making both layers applicable and their savings additive. Neither requires downtime. Neither modifies existing equipment.
How It Works

What changes inside
the chilled water loop.

1
Introduction into the existing loop
Maxwell nanofluid is introduced via a standard chemical dosing point or service connection during normal system operation. No shutdown. No draining. The system continues operating throughout.
2
Improved heat transfer at the evaporator
Sub-micron aluminum oxide particles in suspension increase the thermal conductivity of the base fluid. More heat is transferred per cycle — reducing the "lift" required from compressors to achieve the same cooling output.
3
Pumps and fans run at lower power
Higher heat transfer efficiency in the AHU coils allows chilled water setpoints to be raised and fluid flow rates to be reduced — meaning pumps and supply fans consume less energy while delivering the same cooling performance to server rooms.
4
PUE improves. Results are immediately measurable.
Cooling energy reduction is measurable from the point of full circulation. The improvement persists for 10+ years with no maintenance requirements and no degradation in thermal performance over time.

Why This Sector

Three reasons data centers
are a natural fit.

The technology requirements of mission-critical facilities align precisely with what enPact Chillers was designed to deliver.

Cooling dominance · data centers
30–50%
Of total facility electricity used for cooling
Cooling is consistently the largest energy category in data centers. A 10–15% reduction on a load that represents 30–50% of total facility electricity is one of the highest-leverage efficiency interventions available — more impactful than optimizing compute, lighting, or general loads.
Free cooling limitation · warm climates
Year-round
Mechanical cooling required in warmer climates
Free cooling (using outside air) is unavailable for significant portions of the year in warm U.S. climates. Facilities in California, Texas, Arizona, and the Southeast run mechanical chiller systems year-round — making sustained chiller efficiency improvement more valuable than in cooler northern climates.
Zero downtime requirement
Online
Installation during normal system operation
Maxwell is introduced via dosing point during normal operation — the chilled water system continues running throughout. No maintenance window required. No SLA risk. No coordination with tenant or customer uptime commitments. This is the only category of cooling efficiency improvement that data centers can actually deploy without a planned outage.
