Schneider Electric Introduces New Uniflair XCA Chiller Line, Designed to Enhance Energy Performance and Operational Stability in High-Density AI Data Centers

• Uniflair XCA includes six new sizes of oil-free centrifugal chillers, ranging from 1,300 kW to 2,500 kW of cooling capacity with an Energy Efficiency Ratio of 4.66
• Wide operating range accommodates elevated water temperatures to enhance energy efficiency and sustainability
• Integrated oil-free centrifugal compressors reduce maintenance, contamination risks and mechanical losses

RUEIL-MALMAISON, France, June 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Schneider Electric, a global energy technology leader, today announced the launch of Uniflair XCA, a new series of air-cooled and free-cooling chillers designed to meet the rapidly evolving demands of AI-driven, high-density liquid-cooled data centers.

The Uniflair XCAC (air-cooled) and Uniflair XCAF (free-cooling) series integrate oil-free centrifugal compressors with magnetic bearing technology and built-in variable-speed drives, forming a fully optimized cooling platform engineered to deliver remarkable energy performance and operational stability across diverse thermal loads and ambient conditions.

Equipped with a high-efficiency spray-type evaporator, the XCA line features six sizes of oil-free centrifugal chillers ranging from 1,200 kW to 2,500 kW units that deliver excellent thermal performance and use low-GWP refrigerants to significantly reduce environmental impact. Their wide operating range accommodates elevated water temperatures, making the chillers particularly suited for AI-optimized data centers and advanced liquid cooling infrastructures, where energy efficiency and sustainability are critical.

"Energy efficiency, adaptability and reliability are essential components of liquid cooling systems for AI-optimized data centers, and we've designed the Uniflair XCA line with these most important design features at the forefront," said Andrew Bradner, Senior Vice President, Cooling Business at Schneider Electric. "With adaptable water operating temperatures and versatile deployment options, the XCA line features a system-level approach that gives operators scalability, enhanced performance and long-term peace of mind as data center complexity continues to rise."
