Vertiv Holdings Co has announced the successful completion of its previously reported intent to acquire Purge Rite Intermediate LLC (PurgeRite) for approximately $1 billion. High-performance computing (HPC) and the artificial intelligence (AI) factories require liquid cooling technology to operate, and it is crucial to deploy and maintain clean fluid loops to maximise cooling performance. Achieving this starts with optimal flow at commissioning by establishing ultra-clean, air-free, chemically stable coolant, and preserving that balance to maintain performance throughout the system’s lifecycle.
Commenting on the announcement, chief executive officer (CEO), Vertiv, said, “We are excited to officially welcome PurgeRite to Vertiv, expanding to deepen our fluid management services capabilities. PurgeRite’s specialised expertise in fluid management services complements our existing portfolio and enhances our ability to provide end-to-end product and service support for customers’ high-density computing and AI applications where efficient thermal management is critical to performance and reliability.”
