Valves and components for cooling systems
Efficient cooling is an important part of operations in data centers. It is primarily in the cooling systems that our products are used to regulate and shut down flows and manage movements and vibrations in the piping system.
Cooling systems need to maintain the right flow and temperature to prevent servers and other equipment from overheating. This places demands on valves and other components that can regulate the cooling circuits and make it possible to shut down or isolate parts of the system if necessary.
For control and shutdown, we offer, among other things, butterfly valves from ABO and control valves from Schubert & Salzer. Butterfly valves are used to control and isolate flows, while control valves enable precise regulation of, for example, flow and temperature in the cooling circuits.
We also offer rubber compensators from Stenflex that can absorb vibrations, movements and temperature variations in piping systems. It is particularly relevant in cooling systems where pumps and changes in temperature can cause movements and loads on the system's components.
Butterfly valves
ABO
Butterfly valves are a common valve type in industry that is used to control the flow of liquids and gases. At Axel Larsson, you will find high-quality butterfly valves that are suitable for both standard installations and more demanding systems.
Control valves
Schubert & Salzer
Control valves are valves that are used to adjust and maintain a specific pressure, flow, or level in a piping system. They can be manual or automatic and allow you to fine-tune the performance of the system by opening or closing the valve to varying degrees.
Compensator
Stenflex
Rubber compensators, also known as expansion joints, and swivels are essential components of piping systems. Rubber compensators, made of elastic rubber, absorb movement and vibration, protect pipes and valves from damage, dampen sound and reduce leakage risks.
Complete valve packages and technical advice
In addition to individual components, we supply customized automation solutions and complete valve packages with pneumatic or electric actuators and accessories. Every year, we assemble over 30,000 valve packages in various configurations.
With technical expertise and a wide range of products in stock, we can help with both the selection of components and fast deliveries to new and existing facilities.
Contact us if you need help choosing valves, compensators or other components based on the technical requirements of the cooling system and project.
FAQ
What valves are used in data center cooling systems?
Butterfly valves and control valves are two valve types used in data center cooling systems. Butterfly valves can be used to shut off and control flows, while control valves are used when flow or temperature needs to be regulated more precisely.
Why are compensators used in data centers?
Compensators are used in piping systems to absorb movements, vibrations and temperature variations. In data center cooling systems compensators help manage vibrations from pumps and thermal movements in the pipelines.
Can the valves be supplied with actuators?
Yes. Axel Larsson supplies complete valve packages including pneumatic or electric actuators and the accessories needed for the application.
Can you help with the design of a new data center?
Yes. We help with technical advice and a selection of valves and other components based on the design of the cooling system and the technical requirements of the project.
Can Axel Larsson deliver to existing data centers?
Yes. We help both in new projects and in existing facilities, for example when components need to be replaced or the cooling system rebuilt.
