R&D use cases
Our Application Lab in Venette is equipped with both CPU and GPU server platforms dedicated to performance monitoring and long-term validation of QLOE liquid under real-world operating conditions. The first immersion cooling installation, a 12U Midas tank, hosts Dell, Lenovo, and HPE CPU servers that have been running continuously for more than two years without experiencing any operational issues. The second installation, a 24U GRC tank, integrates servers from 2CRSI, Supermicro, and HP Z. These systems run intensive AI workloads to maximize GPU utilization and thermal stress. The installation has been operating reliably for nine months, generating valuable long-term data on hardware compatibility, cooling efficiency, and system reliability.
At Oleon, we are proud to collaborate with Iceotope, a pioneer in precision liquid cooling technology, to help drive the next generation of sustainable and energy-efficient data center infrastructure.
Unlike conventional immersion tank systems, Iceotope's solution operates at the chassis level within the rack, delivering cooling precisely where it is needed most. Heat is removed directly from critical electronic components through a targeted liquid flow approach, enabling highly efficient thermal management while maintaining a compact and scalable infrastructure design. By combining Iceotope's innovative precision cooling technology with QLOE, our plant-based dielectric cooling liquid, we are enabling a cooling solution that addresses the thermal challenges of modern high-performance computing and AI in a safe, reliable, and sustainable way.
To validate this technology under real operating conditions, our Application Lab in Venette, France, currently hosts an Iceotope rack equipped with four chassis containing Lenovo servers running in QLOE. This system has been operating continuously for more than three years, demonstrating the long-term performance of QLOE in precision liquid cooling.
