KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, May 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As AI computing density surges,
traditional air cooling struggles to keep up with racks exceeding 100kW per cabinet,
especially in hot and humid tropical environments. To address this, Midea Building
Technologies hosted its "Feel the Future" event in Kuala Lumpur, introducing a full-
stack data center thermal management solution for AIDC infrastructure. The launch
aims to solve industry pain points — slow deployment, energy efficiency concerns,
and high total cost of ownership — while ensuring fast, reliable, and sustainable
computing output.

**End-to-End Capabilities from Cooling Source to Terminals**

Midea’s solution covers the entire lifecycle: consulting, design, equipment selection,
delivery, and maintenance. Its technology architecture integrates a full liquid-
cooling matrix including chillers, CDUs (coolant distribution units), liquid-cooling
terminals, and digital O&M. The "air-fluid synergy" architecture enables flexible
coordination between room air cooling and server liquid cooling.

**Three Core Products Designed for Tropical Conditions**

 ◦ Maglev Active CDU: Integrates magnetic bearing cooling source with the distribution
   unit into a single chassis, reducing footprint by more than 50%. Under tropical
   conditions, it achieves system PUE below 1.2 while cutting delivery time and 
   operating costs.

 ◦ Next‑Gen Air‑Cooled Magnetic Bearing Chiller: Designed for water‑scarce, high‑
   temperature environments, it maintains COP of 5.4 at 35°C ambient, with oil‑free
   operation ensuring minimal performance degradation over time.

 ◦ Industrial‑Grade CDU: Delivers 2,600 kW cooling capacity (at 3K ΔT), supporting
   high‑availability architecture for security, stability and continuous operation.

**Liquid‑Cooling Smart Manufacturing Base Unveiled**

Midea’s Shunde liquid‑cooling smart manufacturing base – with over RMB 1 billion
investment – was publicly introduced to global customers. Construction began in 
March 2026 and is expected to start production in August 2027. It will mass‑produce
magnetic bearing chillers, CDUs, and other core products, creating an end‑to‑end
liquid‑cooling capability from R&D to delivery.

**Academic Collaboration with National University of Singapore**

NUS experts shared insights at the event. Dr. Md Raisul Islam presented the Sustainable
Tropical Data Centre Testbed (STDCT), a 0.5 MW open laboratory in Singapore focusing
on energy, water and carbon challenges. Midea is actively discussing next‑phase 
collaboration. Dr. Guo Shuai noted that for racks above 20 kW, AM cold plates with
topology‑optimized fins are key to breaking cooling bottlenecks.

In a panel discussion, experts agreed that thermal design is shifting from support
to core architecture, especially in the tropics, and that future metrics should 
go beyond PUE to include compute efficiency and total cost of ownership.

With full‑stack system capabilities, a complete product portfolio, dedicated manufacturing,
and open innovation, Midea Building Technologies is positioning itself as a key 
enabler of global AI computing infrastructure.

**About Midea Building Technologies**
