Ace Sanitary ICE Coolant Hose for Data Center Cooling Systems

Ace Sanitary FlexRite ICE coolant hoses are specifically engineered for data center liquid cooling applications, delivering reliable performance in closed-loop systems using glycol and deionized water mixtures. Designed for both suction and discharge service, ICE hoses provide long-term durability, temperature resistance, and fluid integrity in demanding cooling environments.

Available in EPDM and PTFE-lined (ICE-P) constructions, these hoses support modern cooling architectures where efficiency, contamination control, and system reliability are critical.

ICE vs ICE-P Hose Construction

ICE (EPDM Coolant Hose)

The standard ICE hose features a peroxide-cured EPDM tube, offering excellent resistance to temperature variation while maintaining mechanical strength over time.

Key Benefits:

  • Broad temperature range (-40°F to 300°F)
  • Flexible and kink-resistant design
  • Reliable for general coolant circulation systems
  • Durable construction for long-term service

ICE-P (PTFE Coolant Hose)

The ICE-P version features a TEFLON™ PTFE-lined tube, providing enhanced chemical compatibility and low-friction flow characteristics.

Key Benefits:

  • Superior compatibility with PG25 and glycol-based coolants
  • Low friction coefficient for efficient fluid circulation
  • Metal-free internal surface for reduced contamination risk
  • Enhanced resistance to oxidation and high temperatures

What is a coolant hose used for in data centers?

Coolant hoses are used to circulate fluid through liquid cooling systems, removing heat from servers and transferring it through heat exchangers.

What is the difference between EPDM and PTFE coolant hoses?

EPDM hoses offer flexibility and broad temperature resistance, while PTFE-lined hoses provide superior chemical compatibility and reduced contamination risk.

Are ICE hoses compatible with glycol coolant?

Yes, ICE and ICE-P hoses are designed for compatibility with glycol and deionized water mixtures commonly used in data center cooling systems.

What pressure rating do ICE hoses have?

Standard ICE hoses are rated for 150 PSI working pressure, depending on size and operating conditions.
