Vertiv has aquired CoolTera, a specialist in coolant distribution infrastructure for data centre liquid cooling technology. This acquisition includes contracts, patents, trademarks, and intellectual property from an affiliate of CoolTera.
Founded in 2016 and based in the UK, CoolTera’s product range includes coolant distribution units, secondary fluid networks, and manifolds.
