As data centers evolve to support high-performance computing, artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency mining, immersion cooling is becoming a crucial thermal management tool. The fluid used in immersion applications is considered a critical component and must be evaluated to attain end-product certification.
To address the needs of the market, UL 2417, the Outline of Investigation for Immersion Cooling Fluids for Use With Information and Communication Technology Equipment, was introduced to evaluate the safety and performance of immersion cooling fluids.
This webinar will guide you through the UL 2417 certification process. Attendees will gain insights into the key safety properties covered in the Standard, such as autoignition temperature, flash point, and dielectric strength.
Learn how this new certification can help your immersion fluids with market entry and help you demonstrate end-product regulatory alignment. Whether you're developing new fluids or selecting certified options, this session will equip you with the knowledge to make informed decisions and accelerate your product's path to market.
By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:
Understand the role of UL 2417 in certifying immersion cooling fluids for use with information and communication technology equipment.
Identify critical performance and safety attributes, such as autoignition temperature, flash point, and dielectric breakdown voltage.
Recognize the industry standard test methods used in evaluating immersion cooling fluids.
Navigate the UL certification process and understand how to leverage the UL Product iQ® database for fluid selection.
Gain insights into the key safety properties covered in UL 2417, such as autoignition temperature, flash point, and dielectric strength.
