As AI workloads push rack densities higher, direct liquid cooling (DLC) is moving from pilot to standard practice. DLC can pull heat far more efficiently than air, yet it brings a new playbook for fluid quality, water chemistry, and life cycle assurance.

Join Ecolab’s Paul Overbeck for a practical, operator-minded discussion that digs into what keeps DLC loops clean and dependable to ensure the reliability, longevity, and efficiency of liquid-cooled server deployments. Gain insights on the lessons learned in specifying proper water chemistry, implementing proactive monitoring, and designing commissioning and maintenance protocols tailored for DLC systems. You will be able to walk away with field-tested checklists and guardrails to hit uptime targets, boost efficiency, and support sustainability across liquid-cooled deployments.
