As GPU rack densities rise, operators mix more water into coolant to absorb heat, but this invites bacterial growth that can clog systems and force costly multi-hour flushes. Omen's device continuously reads fluid chemistry and flags contamination before it escalates. Founded in 2024 by 19-year-old Zach Laberge, the company pivoted from heavy machinery fluid monitoring to data centers after Caterpillar dealers began asking about building systems. Omen currently works with about a dozen data-center customers including Tensorwave, and competes in a fast-growing category alongside Pyxis as liquid cooling becomes mandatory for modern AI compute. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
