Immersion cooling specialist Asperitas has achieved a market first – earning unanimous approval on the Open Compute Project’s AIC24 qualification for safety and quality. What did it take to gain this acceptance from OCP and what does this mean for the future of immersion cooling?

After years of extensive research and development and community building within the Open Compute Project (OCP), immersion cooling experts at Asperitas have just hit a major milestone. The Amsterdam-based scaleup has successfully received OCP’s AIC24 quality and safety qualification, with unanimous approval, and has taken the lead in becoming the first immersion-based technology to reach the achievement. This, however, is just the start of the company’s bigger vision, as the cleantech specialist looks to establish itself as a leader in the domain.

“Of course, we’re thrilled to be the first immersion cooling vendor to gain approval for all three levels of requirements – standard, thermal optimization and safety,” says Andy Young CTO of Asperitas. “But this certainly isn’t a race. It’s a wonderful achievement, but the job simply isn’t done. As technology continues to advance, so too will OCP’s requirements, which means we have to keep on the accelerator and continue to innovate and help move the ecosystem forward. This continual advancement is very much the essence of OCP.”
