Data Centers and Fuel Requirements - Where Pumps Play a Role

Hello, I'm Kyle Benning, OEM sales manager at Viking Pump. Data centers across the globe rely on fuel transfer pumps to maintain operation. I want to highlight some of our pump technologies that are ideal for this critical process. Data centers are essential for storing and processing information in our rapidly growing technological world. Small data centers may consume 10 to 50kW of power, while larger facilities can exceed 100MW. In the U.S. alone, roughly 3% of our power consumption goes to powering these facilities.
