Asperitas

Company brief

What Asperitas does

Asperitas engineers single-phase immersion as a complete system, not a bare vessel. Servers sit in dielectric fluid, natural convection and directed flow move heat through the tank, and integrated power, controls, monitoring, and heat exchange support the installation. Its use of natural convection is a notable design choice because it can reduce pumping inside the bath, although the overall system still needs a path to reject or reuse heat.

The company offers data-center systems and a compact Horizon product for edge artificial-intelligence deployments. It also publishes a long-running high-performance-computing reference with Shell, which gives a buyer a named environment to investigate. The operating model remains materially different from an air-cooled rack: servers must be prepared for immersion, fans are removed, components are lifted and drained during service, and large volumes of fluid must be monitored and handled.

Buyers should verify compatibility for every server part and cable, fluid supplier and formulation, filtration, tank floor load, lifting clearances, spill response, heat-rejection scope, controls integration, and local maintenance coverage. They should ask whether quoted performance uses natural circulation alone or assisted flow at the expected load. Asperitas publishes figures for compute density, performance, capital expense, operating expense, and heat capture.

Those are company-reported claims, not independent results supplied with this profile. Public evidence supports the architecture and named partnerships but does not disclose pricing, fleet-wide reliability, or standardized server warranties.

Use the connected product and deployment records to distinguish a stated capability from evidence that the company has delivered it.
