Vertiv has announced the launch of Vertiv CoolPhase Wall, a space-saving wall-mount cooling system designed for small IT rooms and edge environments. The system has been designed to meet the needs of IT equipment, eliminating heat and providing continuous operation without taking up floor space. Vertiv CoolPhase Wall is now available in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).

As distributed data processing becomes more critical to business operations, compact IT environments require high-quality thermal control designed for sensitive electronic systems. However, many continue to use comfort cooling systems—designed for people—rather than addressing the high sensible heat ratio (SHR) and increased airflow requirements of IT equipment. Vertiv CoolPhase Wall fills this gap with a dedicated system that provides the necessary SHR, along with integrated monitoring and control capabilities to protect equipment and maintain 24/7 operational continuity.

Designed for installation flexibility, Vertiv CoolPhase Wall features a split system with a wall-mounted interior cooling unit. The system delivers up to 60% more airflow than standard comfort cooling systems and uses variable speed compressors and fans to modulate based on thermal load demand, improving energy efficiency and reducing operating costs.

Designed to handle thermal loads of up to 11 kW, Vertiv CoolPhase Wall is prepared to operate reliably in outdoor ambient temperatures ranging from -35°C to 48°C. The system incorporates Vertiv™ Liebert® iCOM™ operational control, which allows local configuration and monitoring of key operating parameters. For greater visibility and remote access, Vertiv CoolPhase Wall includes built-in remote communication capability to provide real-time alerts and operational status through a secure web interface.

Vertiv CoolPhase Wall uses R-32 refrigerant, a low global warming potential (GWP) alternative that reduces environmental impact while maintaining thermal performance. This positions Vertiv ahead of regulatory changes, including the European Union’s F-gas regulation that restricts the use of high-GWP refrigerants. While many comfort cooling systems are still transitioning to lower GWP options, Vertiv is applying these standards to IT-focused cooling, giving organizations confidence that their deployments are aligned with future environmental expectations.

“As IT systems continue to expand into areas not originally intended for high-density electronics, demand for adaptable, energy-efficient cooling solutions is increasing across the EMEA region,” said Sam Bainborough, vice president of Vertiv’s thermal management business in EMEA. “Vertiv CoolPhase Wall is designed to support continuous operations, allowing customers to maintain reliable and efficient thermal performance in small IT rooms and edge locations year-round.”

Vertiv CoolPhase Wall expands the company’s comprehensive thermal management portfolio, which includes precision cooling systems for edge deployments, enterprise data centers and high-density AI environments, ranging from room cooling to direct-to-chip liquid cooling and backdoor heat exchangers.
