The first three components of the InRackCDU system are delivered pre-filled with server cooling liquid. There is no need for data center staff to handle server cooling liquid when installing the InRackCDU or when removing and replacing servers during maintenance. Tubes connect between the CDM and server coolers with locking dripless quick connectors.
Drain Line Connection to CDMs The CDU Cabinet can also be configured with dew point control to ensure that the supply water temperature is above dew point to prevent condensation from forming. Asetek InRackCDU Installation, Operation & Maintenance Guide 3...
Camlock fittings. Camlock fittings are a globally-available, tool-less connection system where the dimensions of the matting ends are governed by international standards, allowing a male Camlock purchase on one continent to mate seamlessly with a female Camlock purchased on another continent.

Coolant The server coolant in InRackCDU systems is a mixture of DI water, propylene glycol with some additional additives for corrosion resistance. It is a safe, environmentally friendly liquid. It provides freeze protection and inhibits corrosion and biological growth within the system.
Material damage may be caused to the monitoring system if this requirement is not met. Only transport the InRackCDU and CDMs in the original packaging or in packaging that protects it from impacts and jolts. ...

Once this initial process has been completed, all the servers may be powered off and on simultaneously. This row-by-row power on sequence only needs to be followed the first time all servers are connected to the InRackCDU System. Asetek InRackCDU Installation, Operation & Maintenance Guide 17...
7 Routine Maintenance There is a reservoir in the 4u InRackCDU cabinet. As the liquid cooling system runs, liquid gradually permeates through the rubber tubing and plastic parts in the system. The reservoir contains sufficient fluid to replenish the liquid that permeates out of the system for more than 50,000 hours of 24/7/365 operation.
Before screwing the plug back into the reservoir, replace the black O-ring on the plug. Replacement O- rings (Asetek PN P00004415) are included on the zipper bag on the below picture and can be purchased from Asetek. Please keep O-rings by customer for preparing that servicemen will use and replace O-ring.
