[0002] With the progress of information technology, artificial intelligence has become an indispensable part of social development. As the physical carrier of artificial intelligence, data centers play a crucial role. And as the cold quantity distribution unit of the data center, the CDU plays a vital role in the normal operation of the data center. The current CDU mainly adopts a multi-sensor redundancy scheme, and these sensors play an indispensable role in the normal operation of the CDU. The current CDU system only alarms for single sensor limit values and detects wire breaks, without collecting and summarizing the data of redundant sensors and associated loop sensors for comprehensive identification and judgment, and does not give full play to the due role of redundant configuration; moreover, taking single sensor alarms will affect the stability of system operation, increase the probability of false alarms, and reduce the overall system reliability. At the same time, the existing technology does not have an online maintenance control logic, resulting in abnormal alarms that should not occur in the CDU system when sensors are replaced online, thus affecting the stability of the entire system operation.
