We are thrilled to share a major milestone at FITOK: the UQD Series Universal Quick Disconnects have officially obtained OCP Inspired™ recognition.

This prestigious accreditation from the Open Compute Project (OCP) a global non-profit driving open-source hardware for the data centre market, confirms that FITOK’s liquid cooling solutions meet the industry’s most rigorous performance and compatibility specifications. As the exclusive UK and Ireland distributor, NVFCL is now ideally positioned to support the region’s rapidly expanding open-source hardware ecosystem with these certified components.

The Standard for Liquid Cooling Reliability

As data centres evolve toward high-density environments, the demand for efficient liquid cooling has moved from “niche” to “necessity.” Heavy workloads generate intense heat that must be managed with absolute precision. In these systems, reliability is everything even a minor leak can result in catastrophic operational risks and economic loss.

The FITOK UQD Series was meticulously engineered in strict accordance with the OCP Universal Quick Disconnect Specification. By achieving OCP Inspired™ status, these connectors are guaranteed to deliver:

• Verified Compatibility: Seamless integration with OCP-compliant rack servers and coolant manifolds.
• Operational Security: Robust performance designed to protect sensitive data centre infrastructure.
• Performance Leadership: Flow and seal characteristics that exceed industry standards.

Why FITOK UQD Series?

The UQD Series provides a high-performance interface for thermal management systems, featuring:

• Fast Maintenance: The push-to-connect design allows for rapid, one-handed operation during server swaps.
• Superior Containment: A flat-face sealing design ensures fluid loss during decoupling remains well below strict OCP limits.
• Thermal Efficiency: An optimized flow path minimizes resistance, ensuring high flow capacity for maximum heat transfer.
• Versatility: Available in four standard orifice sizes with custom end connections available upon request to suit any cooling architecture.
• Error Prevention: Distinct blue and red colour coding for instant identification of supply (inlet) and return (outlet) lines.
• Guaranteed Integrity: Every single unit is helium leak tested before it leaves the factory to ensure 100% reliability.
