ECU-1800: Temperature Management for Military Electronics Cooling
The ECU Series are environmental control units for cooling electronics in rugged, mobile applications. They maintain sealed electronics enclosures at or below ambient temperatures, enabling Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) electronics to be safely and effectively used for computing and communications in extremely hot or cold environments. These systems have been fully ruggedized for military use to MIL-STD-810.
- Designed to meet MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461, and MIL-STD-1275
- Enables COTS electronics
- 1800 W of cooling at rated conditions
- Compatible with most operational transit cases
- Provides cooling, heating and dehumidification to electronics enclosures
- Designed for operation on moving vehicles
- Prevents dust or contaminants from entering the enclosure when installed in an appropriately designed enclosure
- 4 times more efficient, 5 times lighter, and 3 times smaller than competing thermoelectric systems
