Boyd announces its ROL4000 CDU and thermal engineering services to help European data centers meet EU Energy Efficiency Directive requirements.
- Main announcement: Boyd introduces the ROL4000 and advanced liquid-cooling solutions designed to minimize approach temperature, extend chiller-free operating hours, and improve facility-level PUE for hyperscale and enterprise data center deployments in Europe.
- Background and details: The article emphasizes that approach temperature (the delta between coolant to IT and facility water entering the CDU) and heat exchanger effectiveness drive cooling energy use more than pump power; Boyd highlights scalable deployment, alignment with EU energy/regulatory standards, and a global manufacturing footprint as implementation enablers.
