ECU-1800: Temperature Management for Military Electronics Cooling
- Enables COTS electronics
- 1800 W of cooling at rated conditions
- Below ambient cooling
- 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
The ECU Series are ruggedized air conditioning systems for cooling electronics in austere and 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.
