Asetek® announced that it has received a purchase order for its RackCDUTM data center liquid cooling system from an undisclosed leader in quantitative investing and trading. The order includes the retrofitting of a full rack of HP Proliant SL230 servers with RackCDU D2CTM (Direct-to-Chip) liquid cooling. This evaluation system is expected to be deployed with testing initiated in first quarter.

The evaluation has the potential to develop into a significantly larger retrofit of an entire datacenter, as well as new installations, using Asetek's RackCDU.
