Rika Advances Smart Water Quality Monitoring for Liquid Cooling in AI Data Centers

Published

on

CHANGSHA, China, Aug. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — While liquid cooling technology emerges as the mainstream heat dissipation solution for high-heat-load scenarios, the importance of smart water quality monitoring technology is becoming more prominent. As a professional provider of environmental monitoring sensors and solutions, Rika Sensor is actively promoting the application of water quality sensors in the liquid cooling industry, providing more reliable water quality monitoring solutions for AI data centers, energy storage systems, and industrial liquid cooling scenarios through real-time online monitoring technology.

Growing Monitoring Demand

In recent years, the construction of data centers worldwide has continued to accelerate. Especially against the backdrop of rapidly growing demand for AI computing power, high-density servers are requiring higher levels of heat dissipation capabilities. Compared to traditional air-cooling systems, liquid cooling technology, with its higher heat dissipation efficiency and lower energy consumption, is evolving into an important technological approach for next-generation data centers. At the same time, large-scale energy storage power stations, power electronic equipment, and industrial thermal management systems are also beginning to widely adopt liquid cooling solutions to meet the requirements for long-term stable operation.

According to MarketsandMarkets, the global data center liquid cooling market is projected to grow from $4.07 billion in 2026 to $27.65 billion by 2033 at a CAGR of 31.5%. With the accelerated application of liquid cooling technology in AI data centers and energy storage systems, the demand for monitoring coolant status is also increasing.

In liquid cooling systems, the coolant not only performs the function of heat transfer, but its water quality also directly affects the systems’ operational stability. Factors such as abnormal conductivity, pH imbalance, increased suspended particles, and changes in dissolved oxygen can all lead to corrosion, scaling, or decreased heat exchange efficiency. Therefore, establishing a comprehensive water quality monitoring system has become a crucial aspect of ensuring the reliable operation of liquid cooling systems.

However, traditional manual sampling and testing methods suffer from problems such as long cycles and insufficient real-time performance, making it difficult to promptly detect changes in the coolant state. In addition, different liquid cooling systems often need to monitor multiple key parameters simultaneously, such as pH value, conductivity (EC), turbidity, and dissolved oxygen, which poses greater challenges to the measurement accuracy, long-term stability, and environmental adaptability of sensors.

In this context, water quality monitoring solutions capable of real-time online monitoring, remote data transmission, and intelligent alerting are attracting increasing attention from industry users. How to obtain accurate and reliable water quality data under complex operating environments has become a crucial direction for the development of water quality monitoring technology in the liquid cooling industry.

Intelligent Sensing Solutions

To meet the evolving water quality monitoring needs of the liquid cooling industry, Rika Sensor offers a variety of product solutions, including pH sensors, EC sensors, turbidity sensors, dissolved oxygen sensors, and integrated online water quality monitoring systems.

Leveraging years of accumulated environmental monitoring expertise and over 20 patents, Rika Sensor continuously optimizes its products in terms of measurement accuracy, long-term stability, and environmental adaptability. Its products utilize high-quality core components and incorporate temperature compensation, anti-interference design, and corrosion-resistant materials to meet the long-term online monitoring needs of liquid cooling systems.

Rika Sensor’s water quality monitoring solutions have been successfully applied to multiple liquid cooling projects. In a liquid cooling data center project in Europe, it helped the client achieve real-time alerting of coolant purity and corrosion risk by monitoring parameters such as coolant conductivity, pH value, and turbidity online. It has also established a strategic partnership with a leading Chinese liquid cooling system manufacturer, providing customized water quality sensors for liquid cooling units, covering scenarios such as data centers and energy storage power stations.

Henry, the technical director of an overseas liquid cooling system customer, said, “Rika water quality sensors provide our liquid cooling circuits with stable online monitoring capabilities, which significantly reduces O&M costs and the risk of equipment failure.”

Expanding Liquid Cooling Applications

In addition to data centers, liquid cooling technology is being rapidly adopted in energy storage systems, new energy equipment, power electronic equipment, and industrial thermal management.

With the growing global demand for energy conservation, emission reduction, and efficient thermal management, water quality monitoring will play an increasingly important role in the entire life cycle management of liquid cooling systems. Michael, the GM of Rika Sensor, pointed out, “We’re always committed to focusing on customer challenges and applying sensing technology across the liquid cooling industry, providing global customers with more reliable and easier-to-integrate monitoring solutions.”

Through continuous innovation in sensing technology and flexible customization capabilities, Rika Sensor is collaborating with liquid cooling equipment manufacturers, system integrators, and project developers to jointly drive the liquid cooling industry toward a more intelligent, efficient, and reliable future.

New website helps parents get kids active and reduce their screen time

Published

on

By

CALGARY, AB, Sept. 21, 2026 /CNW/ — Active for Life today launched ItsChildsPlay.ca, a free website that shows parents how to get their kids moving and off their screens.

The World Health Organization identifies physical activity as essential to health and well-being from the earliest years. Science finds that play builds executive function, social skills like negotiation and cooperation, motor development, and the ability to regulate stress and anxiety. Yet most Canadian children and youth fall well short:

80% do not get the recommended two hours of daily active play.63% do not get the recommended 60 minutes of daily physical activity.

Parents know these facts, but many remain uncertain about how to get their children moving, especially so when overwhelmed with the struggle to limit their children’s screen time.

ItsChildsPlay.ca provides practical solutions that show parents how easy it is to engage in fun activities with their children at home without costly equipment, struggle or stress.

ItsChildsPlay.ca was created by Active for Life, a web-based initiative that helps educators and parents build active play into children’s lives. The site is being promoted with a series of radio ads across Canada, with help from the Pro Bono Group.

Quotes

“For fifteen years, parents have been telling the Active for Life team that getting children to engage in active play is hard. We understand the challenge,” said Richard Monette, who leads Active for Life. “This is why we built ItsChildsPlay.ca: a resource for parents that’s easy to use, takes minutes a day and is good for their child’s body and mind.”
