Munters

Company brief

What Munters does

Munters supplies air-side thermal equipment for data centers, with particular depth in evaporative and indirect evaporative cooling, air handling, and heat exchange. Instead of relying on compressor refrigeration for every hour, these systems use evaporation to cool an air stream or heat exchanger when weather permits. That can reduce electrical demand in dry conditions, but it moves part of the operating burden to water supply, treatment, discharge, and hygiene.

Indirect designs keep the wetted air separate from the data hall; direct designs have a closer relationship with room humidity and outside-air quality. Munters therefore belongs at the room and heat-rejection stages of the chain, not at the processor cold plate or rack manifold. It can serve conventional air-cooled halls and the residual air load in hybrid halls where liquid removes only processor heat.

Buyers should model a full year of local wet-bulb conditions rather than compare a single design-point efficiency. They also need maximum-day water use, water quality limits, filtration, plume and legionella controls where relevant, fan redundancy, turndown, sound, controls integration, maintenance access, and a fallback mode for humid or water-constrained periods. Munters' website confirms a data-center cooling focus, but the homepage provides little product-level evidence.

Technology scope and any savings claims are company-reported; public material reviewed for this profile does not establish project pricing, independent fleet performance, or suitability for a specific climate.
