Dual-Rail Blind-Mate Manifold for In-Rack Liquid Cooling

Quick AnswerDual-Rail Blind-Mate Manifold for In-Rack Liquid Cooling — an IDCPDU Manifold for liquid-cooling loops.
  1. Blind-mate coupling as the tray slides in — The connection closes on insertion, so a node is swapped without reaching behind the rack to seat hoses by hand.
  2. Self-closing, drip-free couplings — Both sides seal on disconnect, so a cold-plate swap leaves no coolant on the floor and no air in the loop.
  3. Two rails welded, then machined as one — Supply and return spacing is fixed by machining, not by assembly tolerance — blind-mate alignment does not drift after a few tray swaps.

Product Description

  • Two parallel rails welded into one header for blind-mate docking
  • Single-rail version for hand-inserted push-in couplings
  • Automatic air vent, online service without draining the loop
  • In a blind-mate rack the mating half of the coupling sits on the server tray. The tray slides in, the couplings close by themselves and supply and return connect in one movement, so no one has to reach behind the rack with a hand.
  • The two rails are welded to each other and machined as one part, so the branch spacing on the supply side matches the return side and the tray engages on the first push instead of being wiggled into place.
  • Supply and return carry colour rings, an automatic vent releases trapped gas after filling, and one circuit can be isolated for service while the rest of the loop keeps running. The header distributes coolant between the liquid-cooled equipment inside the cabinet.
  • It mounts inside a 19-inch cold-plate rack, between the CDU feed and the cold plates. Length, branch count and branch spacing follow the rack layout, and where trays are connected by hand the same header is built in a single-rail version.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between blind-mate and hand-inserted?

In the dual-rail version the coupling closes by itself as the tray slides in. In the single-rail version the operator plugs the hose in by hand.

Are the two rails welded together?

Yes. The two rails are welded to each other and machined as one part, so the supply and return branches stay aligned.

Does service require draining the loop?

No. The header is built for online service, the automatic vent handles trapped gas, and one circuit can be isolated while the rest runs.

How do we avoid swapping supply and return?

Colour rings mark the two rails, so the supply side is identified at a glance during assembly and service.

Which racks does it fit?

19-inch cold-plate liquid-cooled cabinets, mounted inside the rack between the CDU feed and the cold plates.

Can length and branch spacing be adapted?

Yes. Length, branch count and branch spacing follow the rack layout and are built to drawing.
