What is a Water-Cooled Split AC Unit?

For businesses that need powerful, efficient, and flexible cooling in areas where an exhaust hose option is not feasible, water-cooled split AC units provide the perfect solution. Whether you’re cooling server rooms, data centres, hospital wards, industrial spaces or offices, these units offer reliable climate control.

A water-cooled split AC unit consists of two main components:

• Indoor Unit: A freestanding unit installed within the workspace, containing an evaporator coil and a fan to absorb heat and distribute cool air.
• Outdoor Condenser: The external unit dissipates heat and can be positioned up to 30m away (6.7kW) or 20m away (15kW) for flexible installation.

These units are connected via flexible glycol filled umbilical lines, making them more versatile than traditional split AC systems.
