Motul, a global leader in advanced performance and tech fluids company, Hypertec, a global provider of innovative IT solutions and AI infrastructure, and Midas Immersion Cooling , a pioneer in immersion cooling technologies, announce today that they have successfully validated Motul Dielectric next-generation dielectric immersion fluid for Hypertec AI and HPC servers operating inside Midas’ commercial immersion cooling tanks.
 

Motul’s advanced dielectric fluid EGEN DCC 100R8 has successfully accomplished a rigorous testing process conducted in collaboration with Hypertec and Midas immersion Cooling, confirming its compatibility with Hypertec’s immersion-optimized AI and HPC server platforms operating inside Midas commercial immersion tanks.  This achievement represents a key step forward for sustainable, high-efficiency data center cooling, enabling higher rack densities, lower energy consumption and a reduced environmental impact.
 

“As the world enters an unprecedented phase of AI-driven digital acceleration, every data center operator is now facing the same critical challenge: how to deliver more performance with less energy and less environmental impact. This joint validation with Motul and Midas demonstrates that immersion cooling is not only technically viable at scale, it is a decisive lever to reduce power consumption, cut CO₂ emissions, and extend server lifespan. It is a meaningful step forward for a more efficient and sustainable AI infrastructure ecosystem.” 
Patrick Scateni, Vice President, Business Development – Hypertec HPC & AI
 

“Motul has innovated for more than 170 years in the field of fluids that boost our partners’ performance. With EGEN DCC 100R8 we put our expertise at the service of data centers, providing a fluid that is both highly performant and sustainable. During extensive testing, the fluid has demonstrated high thermal transfer and excellent dielectric properties, as well as long-lasting performance in terms of corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, and stability in high temperature environments. In addition, it is a halogen-free formula, based on renewable raw materials, readily biodegradable, and non-toxic”. 
Christophe Lacroix, Chief Innovation and Sustainability Officer, Motul
 

“Immersion cooling is our only business, so we are at the forefront of this technology and partner with the best to create optimal environments for data hardware manufacturers to innovate and push the boundaries of HPC, AI, and Edge/Cloud hybrid solutions. The partnership with Motul and Hypertec is a significant step forward in high-efficiency and sustainable data center cooling”. 
Scott Sickmiller, CEO MIDAS Immersion Cooling
