MagPro launches 1.85 MW air-cooled chiller for AI data centers

AeroLev 1850 operates at ambient temperatures up to 45°C, eliminates evaporative cooling water and supports liquid-cooling systems.

MagPro and EPG Data Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., announced AeroLev 1850, a 1.85 MW-class, 45°C-ready air-cooled, magnetic-bearing chiller platform designed for next-generation AI data centers in water-scarce, high-ambient environments.

MagPro’s magnetic-levitation air chiller platform, AeroLev 1850.

As AI computing drives greater power demand and heat density, data-center operators need cooling infrastructure that can scale without increasing dependence on water. AeroLev 1850 combines a cooling-tower-free architecture with oil-free magnetic-levitation technology and intelligent controls to deliver efficient, reliable cooling while reducing water consumption.

At the heart of the platform is a dedicated air-cooled magnetic-levitation compressor with isentropic efficiency of up to 87%. A patented condenser delivers subcooling of more than 3°C, while the standard EC fans further improve energy performance. Together, these technologies deliver up to 40% higher overall energy efficiency and up to 8% lower failure rates compared with conventional oil-lubricated compressors, and up to 10% lower maintenance costs compared with conventional chillers.

By eliminating evaporative cooling water, AeroLev 1850 removes a significant operational constraint for data centers in arid and water-stressed regions. Its free-cooling capability uses ambient air during cooler periods to reduce compressor runtime, power consumption, and operating costs.

The platform is also engineered for the shift toward direct-to-chip and immersion liquid cooling. AeroLev 1850 can supply chilled water at temperatures up to 45°C, supporting emerging high-temperature cooling architectures without requiring major infrastructure reinvestment. Its standardized modular design supports rapid installation and flexible expansion as AI capacity grows.
