LG earns NVIDIA certification for 600kW coolant distribution unit

4 min read

LG Electronics secured official NVIDIA certification for its 600kW coolant distribution unit after passing more than 100 technical evaluation criteria designed to standardize cooling performance, reliability and failover for AI factories. The certified CDU uses direct-to-chip liquid cooling in a hybrid arrangement with air systems, offers ±0.25°C temperature precision, virtual sensors and leak detection, and integrates with LG's Data Center Cooling Control Manager. LG validated systems at a chip-to-chiller site in Pyeongtaek and plans sequential certification for 1MW, 2.5MW and 4MW models, which could accelerate procurement and deployments by hyperscalers.
