ERIKS UK & I, now a Rubix company, will be exhibiting at Data Centre World in London, Stand F6, on 4–5 March 2026. The exhibition will showcase the company's expertise in supporting designers and contractors working on modern data centre cooling infrastructures.
AI impacts cooling systems
The integration of AI-driven workloads is reshaping data centre architecture, leading to increased rack densities and new cooling systems. These changes place additional demands on mechanical elements, particularly chilled water systems. As these systems are expected to perform reliably under demanding conditions, careful valve selection is an important consideration.
Comprehensive valve solutions
ERIKS UK & I provides valve technologies for HVAC and chilled water applications. Covering functions such as isolation, regulation, and protection, the portfolio includes a range of sizes, materials, and actuation options. This allows engineers to standardise valve solutions while accommodating different system designs, environmental factors, and potential future expansion.
Proactive design engagement
Addressing valve selection during the early stages of design is a key aspect of ERIKS UK & I's approach. Considering variables such as water quality, environmental challenges, and maintenance access can help reduce the risk of system failures or operational delays. This approach supports long-term reliability and improves the operational performance of large-scale data centre projects.
Collaboration at Data Centre World
As data centres grow in size and complexity, intersecting with broader digital infrastructures, Data Centre World provides a platform for industry collaboration. ERIKS UK & I’s participation demonstrates its ongoing involvement in the sector and the application of practical experience in managing data centre cooling challenges.
