Vertiv, a provider of critical digital infrastructure, has delivered direct-to-chip high-density liquid cooling (HDLC) deployment in collaboration with CapitaLand India Trust (CLINT), an India-focused property trust under CapitaLand Investment (CLI), at the CLDC Mumbai 01 Datacentre in Airoli, Navi Mumbai. The project leverages Vertiv’s secondary fluid network (SFN) system to support 30 MW of AI workloads for a hyperscale end customer.

Liquid-based cooling is the fastest-growing segment, accelerating as operators move beyond traditional air cooling to meet the demands of AI-driven, high-density workloads. Central to enabling liquid-based cooling adoption at scale, the closed loop SFN system carries coolant from a facility’s cooling infrastructure to the chip level, and is manufactured, tested and commissioned to exacting standards before it can support live IT loads.

“The CapitaLand Investment project, particularly the collaboration, helped us accelerate the development of our manufacturing and engineering capabilities, enabling us to support the growing demands of AI-ready digital infrastructure,” said Subhasis Majumdar, MD, Vertiv India. “As the Indian market advances toward high-density liquid cooling for hyperscale and datacentre applications, we see meaningful growth potential and are well positioned to deliver the scale, expertise and innovation required for these deployments.”

From Innovation to HDLC Datacentre Deployment

To meet the scale of the HDLC project, Vertiv built a production facility capable of mass-manufacturing the customised technology loop skids designed to support future large-scale deployments. The facility was also designed to meet stringent standards for protecting sensitive cooling components from contamination.

Vertiv worked closely with CapitaLand Investment, owner and operator of CLDC Mumbai, to develop installation and commissioning (I&C) procedures designed to minimise dust ingress into the technology loop as the SFN skids were installed. Following commissioning, Vertiv demonstrated technology-loop balancing using its innovative SFN-Tab kits, then carried out comprehensive Level 4 (L4) testing at the data centre to validate performance ahead of go-live.
