SWEP Introduces New Products for Future Demands of Data Center Cooling and Heat Reuse

Rhea-AI Summary

SWEP (NYSE: DOV) on December 3, 2025 introduced two new brazed plate heat exchangers, the SWEP B327 and SWEP B224, targeted at data center liquid cooling and district energy applications.

Both models are for single-phase systems and share design features: large ports for high flow rates, low pressure drop, and high thermal efficiency. They offer a tight temperature approach in a compact format suitable for Coolant Distribution Units (CDUs) and confined data center spaces. The B327 is also noted for heat recovery and can be used with thermal storage, heating substations, and tap water stations up to 1000 kW. The announcement highlights SWEP's broader liquid cooling portfolio including CDUs, mechanical cooling, free cooling, and heat recovery.

New BPHEs target rising liquid cooling and heat‑reuse needs in data centers and district energy; product specs emphasize flow, low pressure drop and compactness.

SWEP expands its liquid‑cooling portfolio with the SWEP B327 and SWEP B224, aimed at single‑phase applications such as data center cooling and district heating. Both units highlight large ports for high flow rates, low pressure drop and high thermal efficiency, which enables tighter temperature approach in a compact brazed plate heat exchanger form factor suitable for Coolant Distribution Units (CDUs) and confined data‑center spaces.

Key dependencies and risks include actual field performance in CDUs, integration with existing mechanical and free‑cooling systems, and verified heat‑recovery capacity; only one explicit capacity was given: SWEP B327 can capture excess heat up to 1000kW. Monitor customer adoption, third‑party performance data, and announcements of deployments or partnerships as evidence the products address the stated AI/HPC cooling demand. The launch date is December 3, 2025.

DOWNERS GROVE, Ill., Dec. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- SWEP, part of Dover (NYSE: DOV) and a world-leading supplier of brazed plate heat exchangers (BPHEs), today announced the launch of two new products, SWEP B327 and SWEP B224, developed to meet growing market demand in data center cooling and district energy applications.

With Artificial Intelligence (AI) and High-Performance Computing (HPC) on the rise, power and processing in data centers require efficient alternatives to traditional air cooling. Both new products, which expand the range of SWEP liquid cooling solutions for data centers, are developed for single-phase applications such as data center cooling and district heating, with shared design features including large ports for high flow rates, low pressure drop, and high thermal efficiency.

SWEP B327 and SWEP B224 are both high-performing heat transfer solutions providing a tight temperature approach in a compact heat exchanger format, making them highly suitable to fit the confined spaces of a data center where Coolant Distribution Units (CDUs) are more frequently used to handle high-density heat loads and keep servers at adequate temperatures. SWEP B327 can also be used to capture excess heat from data centers, thermal storage, heating substations and tap water stations up to 1000kW.

"SWEP is committed to providing state-of-the-art heat transfer solutions to support the rapid evolution of data centers," said Ulrika Nordqvist, SWEP President. "Being at the forefront of market development and demand for products that meet the future of efficient, sustainable cooling and heat reuse is a core mission for SWEP. Both SWEP B224 and SWEP B327 reflect this goal."

The SWEP family of liquid cooling solutions includes a broad range of data center offerings that are specifically designed for:

• Cooling Distribution Units (CDUs) – a closed-loop system that circulates coolant on one side and water on the other to enable efficient cooling to precise temperatures.
• Mechanical Cooling – chiller technology capable of operating in both air- and water-cooled systems and connecting Computer Room Air Handling (CRAH) systems and/or providing facility water for CDUs in a liquid-cooled system.
• Free Cooling – which utilizes ambient air or facility water, rather than refrigerants, to chill the air the data centers or to cool servers and other equipment directly.
• Heat Recovery – for extracting waste heat from water warmed by cooling the servers and reusing it for district heating, process heating or a wide range of other applications.
