As liquid cooling demands grow
Krohne, the manufacturer of instrumentation and measurement tools, is expanding its production for the data center market.
The company will develop more magnetic flow meters (magmeters) for data centers, "dedicating a significant portion of its annual production capacity to meet escalating demand."
Magmeters use a transmitter and sensor to measure flow, including for liquid cooling systems.
Krohne has also established a dedicated Center of Excellence at its facility in Beverly, Massachusetts, purely for the data center market.
"It has become apparent that to serve the vast volume of meters required to construct the future AI-driven data centers, Krohne needed to make this bold step," said Rich Hendgen, CEO of Krohne America.
"The issue has never been our quality or robust technology—it’s about our ability to meet the volume demands. We also recognize that the applications for our magmeters are rapidly evolving in ways not imagined before. To make accurate, repeatable, and reliable measurements in these new applications, we needed a focused team of engineers and sales support to make it happen.
"America is in a race to be the global leader in AI solutions, and one of the biggest threats to winning that race is the time it takes to construct these massive data centers."
