Data Centre Cooling Solutions

Direct Liquid Cooling PG25

Advanced coolant purpose-developed for Direct-to-Chip liquid cooling in data centres.

Direct Liquid Cooling PG25 is a ready-to-use propylene glycol-based heat transfer fluid engineered specifically for Direct-to-Chip cooling systems.

Designed to deliver reliable heat dissipation alongside extended corrosion protection, material compatibility and long-term fluid stability, PG25 provides a purpose-developed cooling fluid for high-performance data centre and AI infrastructure.

Available from DC Cooling Solutions, official partners and distributors of Castrol ON advanced thermal fluids.

Purpose-developed for Direct-to-Chip cooling

Direct-to-Chip systems circulate coolant through cold plates mounted directly onto high-performance CPUs, GPUs and other heat-generating components.

As compute densities increase, the performance and condition of the coolant become increasingly important to maintaining effective heat removal and protecting the cooling circuit.

PG25 has been specifically developed for this application.

Its formulation combines effective heat transfer with corrosion protection, material compatibility and biostability to support reliable long-term operation within Direct-to-Chip cooling systems.

Why PG25?

Proven heat transfer performance

PG25 is designed to provide reliable heat dissipation within Direct-to-Chip cooling circuits, helping maintain appropriate operating temperatures under demanding compute loads.

Extended corrosion protection

Advanced inhibitors help protect metal components within the cooling circuit against corrosion throughout the fluid's service life.

Material compatibility

PG25 has been developed for compatibility with wetted materials found within liquid cooling systems, including the metals, plastics, seals and other components that come into contact with the coolant.

Biostable formulation

The formulation prevents bacterial growth during service, helping maintain fluid integrity and cooling system cleanliness.

Ready to use

PG25 is supplied as a pre-mixed solution and requires no on-site dilution with water, simplifying filling and reducing the risk associated with incorrect concentration or water quality.

Long-term durability

Designed for continuous closed-loop operation, PG25 provides the stability required for demanding data centre cooling environments.

OCP Inspired™

Direct Liquid Cooling PG25 has achieved OCP Inspired™ recognition from the Open Compute Project Foundation.

OCP Inspired™ recognition provides additional independent industry validation for organisations evaluating liquid cooling technologies for open, scalable and high-performance computing infrastructure.

NVIDIA Validated

PG25 has been validated to meet NVIDIA requirements for AI factory and data centre infrastructure.

The NVIDIA validation followed a technical review covering:

  • Corrosion resistance
  • Thermal stability
  • Propylene glycol base-fluid purity
  • Dilution-water quality
  • Compatibility with wetted materials

The validation provides additional confidence for data centre operators, equipment manufacturers and cooling-system providers selecting fluids for high-performance AI infrastructure.

Coolant condition matters

Selecting the correct coolant is only part of maintaining reliable Direct-to-Chip cooling.

Coolant contamination, incorrect filling, changes in fluid condition and suspended material can affect cooling performance and potentially compromise critical components within the cooling circuit.

DC Cooling Solutions provide specialist support throughout the coolant lifecycle, including:

  • Coolant selection and specification support
  • Pre-commissioning and commissioning
  • Filling and fluid conditioning
  • Coolant sampling and laboratory analysis
  • Fluid monitoring and management
  • Filtration and contamination control
  • Fluid replacement and remediation
  • Ongoing technical support

This allows coolant performance and condition to be measured and managed throughout the operating life of the system.
