CANUS/Technology
Cooling loop, boundary controller, scheduler, operating record and armour, designed and tested as one machine.
01Cooling
01 / 05
Direct-to-chip cold plates take most of the heat; in-row air takes the rest. The loop is closed, so there is no water to source and none to waste after the first fill.

Most of the heat
Cold plates sit on every GPU and CPU. Coolant arrives cool, leaves warmer, and never touches the air in the hall.
The remainder
In-row units handle memory, drives, networking and everything the plates do not touch, so standard racks slide in unchanged.
On the roof
A rooftop dry cooler rejects the heat straight to air. Supply coolant at or below 35 °C at a 45 °C design ambient, with a 50 °C survival margin.
1.10 – 1.21 Design PUE
450 kW of IT load on about 545 kW of facility input, no evaporative water, and a built-in cushion that gives the host its headroom without touching the tenant's racks.

Liquid to the chip.Heat to the air.
Each one is fitted to every PortaDC and tested with the rest before the pod ships.
A rack-mounted unit in every pod. FrontierGate™ holds the boundary; LARUS AI™ signs what crossed it.

01The cushion, executed at the boundary
02The buffer carries the cushion
03Two channels, hardware-signed
Four layers, from the fence line to the certificate.
Sited inside fenced, 24/7 monitored solar-and-battery switchyards or secured industrial premises. No public foot traffic.
Solid corrugated weathering-steel walls with no air-intake louvres, internal deadbolts, vibration sensing and clean-agent fire detection and suppression to Australian standards.
LARUS AI™ hardware-signs boundary power and thermal delivery into one auditable ledger. Tamper-linked telemetry and independent hardware fault isolation sit alongside.
Every pod passes witnessed factory acceptance testing before it ships, then Australian integration and certification: AS/NZS 61439 switchboard, revenue-grade boundary metering, fire detection and suppression to Australian standards, statutory AS/NZS 3000 certification and site acceptance sign-off.
Every rack in the lineup plugs into the same pod. Change the silicon; keep the pod. You bring it; we never touch it.
