Nice, what will be the immersion fluid? Be sure to put something like copper sulfate in the glycol loops to prevent inferior organisms taking over.

Novec 7100.  I have some test fluid on the way and hopefully I can get a test Neptune in the fluid on Monday or Tuesday and see how it does.
Looks like a nice setup.

Are you using free air cooling or is it ACd?

With immersion you should get a better PUE, N7100 is single phase, right?

Is the stuff expensive?

How high is your power cost? Are you doing immersion because of high power cost or for fun?

I have a 12000 sq ft warehouse with 60 tons of cooling but I don't turn on the AC's because of the cost.   

It really doesn't get that warm due to the size and 16 ft tall ceilings.  I just bought a 15000CFM upblast fan I am going to install on the roof to exhaust hot air.

The Novec is about $300 a gallon.

My power costs are .10/kw now.  The more I use the cheaper it gets, down to about .08/kw

I am immersion cooling for fun.  If I can crank the Neptunes and or Monarchs (when they arrive), I will immersion cool everything.

If the performance if marginal I will just immerse some of it.
