Military COTS CoolSlot® Liquid-Cooled Enclosure
Ayer, MA., February 18, 2004, Hybricon Corporation announces the release of a new line of military COTS enclosures that are designed for optimum cooling through the use of an air-to-water heat exchanger. Three AC fans in series mounted above the card cage and a single heat exchanger fan provide a simulated average airflow of 225 LFM per slot. The airflow is through a closed loop trough air-to-water heat exchanger with a 50/50 ethylene glycol water mixture delivered at 3 GPM and 10 PSI. Patented CoolSlot® air deflecting card guides eliminate hot spots and improve board cooling by as much as 50%.
The enclosures are configured with a 21-slot VME64x backplane mounted on slides for easy access. Low acoustic and structureborne noise levels are achieved using fans set in series and shock and vibration isolators.
Additional features include:
- 750 watt embedded power supply
- System monitoring for power, temperature, and fan failure
- IEEE 1101.10 compliant
- Front and rear ground clips provide proper grounding (per IEC 950 section 2) for all plug-in modules thereby reducing the chances of circuit damage by electrostatic discharge
