Vertiv VRC-S Row Cooling Unit 30kW

The Vertiv VRC-S Row Cooling Unit 30kW is a self-contained, in-row precision cooling solution engineered to address the high-density thermal challenges of modern enterprise data centers. Designed to be deployed directly within server rows, the unit delivers targeted, close-coupled cooling that dramatically reduces the distance between the heat source and the cooling medium. This architecture minimizes hot-spot formation, improves energy efficiency, and enables data center operators to scale compute density without requiring costly raised-floor plenum upgrades or full facility retrofits.

Operating on a 230V electrical supply and delivering up to 30kW of sensible cooling capacity, the VRC-S is optimized for environments running dense server clusters, high-performance computing nodes, GPU-accelerated AI and machine learning workloads, and blade chassis deployments. The unit employs a front-to-back airflow path aligned with standard IT equipment airflow conventions, drawing hot exhaust air from the hot aisle and returning conditioned air directly to adjacent racks. Chilled water connectivity allows integration with centralized cooling plant infrastructure, making the VRC-S a natural fit for facilities already operating hydronic cooling loops.

As part of Vertiv's established VRC product family, the VRC-S 30kW unit supports flexible deployment scenarios including new greenfield data center builds, capacity expansions within existing white-space environments, and edge or colocation facilities where space efficiency and operational reliability are paramount. Its compact form factor occupies standard rack-unit space within a row without requiring dedicated mechanical room alterations, allowing IT and facilities teams to respond rapidly to growing thermal loads driven by AI infrastructure adoption and increasing server consolidation.

Ideal for

• High-density GPU server clusters running AI training and inference workloads requiring localized 30kW-class heat removal within a single row
• Hyperconverged infrastructure deployments where blade and high-core-count servers generate concentrated thermal loads exceeding traditional overhead CRAC unit capacity
• Data center capacity expansion projects where raised-floor cooling infrastructure is insufficient and in-row supplemental cooling is needed without full facility renovation
• Colocation and carrier-neutral facilities supporting multi-tenant cage environments with variable and unpredictable per-row heat density
• Edge data center deployments in space-constrained environments requiring self-contained, row-level precision cooling with chilled water plant integration
• Enterprise HPC environments running computational fluid dynamics, financial modeling, or genomics workloads that generate sustained, high-density thermal output across densely populated racks
