Panasonic Corporation has unveiled a next-generation cooling water circulation pump engineered specifically for data center cooling applications.
Designed for seamless integration into Coolant Distribution Units (CDUs)—the core components of modern cooling systems—the new pump delivers exceptional efficiency, a compact footprint, and extended service life. It supports the evolving demands of next-generation data infrastructure by minimizing environmental impact while ensuring stable, reliable operation.
Leveraging advanced simulation technologies—including magnetic field, fluid dynamics, and flow analysis—Panasonic has boosted pump performance by 75%, increasing flow rates from 40 to 70 L/min, all while maintaining the same compact size as previous models. This innovation not only enhances energy efficiency across entire data center systems but also simplifies overall cooling system design.
The pump’s compact housing results from Panasonic’s extensive design expertise, refined over decades of developing built-in pumps for various equipment.
Marking the 70th anniversary of its pump business—with over 53 million units shipped to date—Panasonic is strategically entering the data center cooling pump market. The company, which began with domestic well pumps in 1955 and expanded into built-in AC pumps for water heaters in 1980, is now aiming for cumulative pump shipments of 100 million units by 2035.
