Example Edgeility System Deployment

This pilot Edgeility System has been operating outside in the rugged Phoenix Arizona climate continuously since August 2021. Even with inlet air temperatures reaching 130°F, all electronic components continue to operate uninterrupted within their thermal envelope.

  • Located at a client site in Phoenix, AZ - cooled with nothing but air

  • Uses no A/C or liquids

  • All heat generating components including voltage regulators and controllers are cooled with Jouleforce™ Arrays

  • Supports heat loads up to 96kW

  • JouleForce™ Cooling technology directly cools all heat generating components

  • Thousands of hours of run time, and thousand of hours of data cooling overclocked chips during an ongoing stress test

  • Has been running continuously since August 2021 - outside, on asphalt, and in the direct sunlight

Edgeility system data taken from July 11th, 2021 where onboard temperature sensors measured the inlet air at 129.9°F/54.4°C and all 64 cores operated uninterrupted.
