When your business relies upon sensitive electronic equipment to keep your operation rolling, managing your waste heat is critical to preventing production delays and expensive repairs. By planning for the heat you generate and how to best transfer it, you protect your circuitry and other electronic parts from the danger of overheating. While this event can greatly negatively impact your bottom line, failure to manage temperatures effectively can create serious hazardous conditions for your employees.
At Noren Thermal Solutions, we understand that protecting your electronics and safely disposing of heat may not be your area of expertise. That’s why we have been doing business for over 50 years helping companies like yours anticipate and prepare for their waste heat management needs. By understanding the role that products like cold plates and heat sinks play in safeguarding your equipment, you can be confident that your electronics are well-kept.
Transferring Heat Away From Sensitive Equipment With A Cold Plate
When you have various electric devices that generate a large amount of heat, a cold plate can contact its surface area to absorb temperatures and dissipate them away. We create each plate from sturdy aluminum that contains an internal tube through which we conduct heat outward. As your equipment sends temperatures into the plate, we run a liquid through the plate’s tube to transfer heat to another location. Using a method known as direct contact cooling, your cold plate is valuable for applications where surface contact is possible.
Heat Sinks Can Combine To Move Unwanted Waste Heat
When you are looking towards improving the costs associated with managing your temperatures, consider a technology that provides passive heat exchange. A heat sink is one of many products that does not require additional energy in order to transfer temperature. By attaching this device to a motherboard, it collects heat from the air coming off of the equipment. You may have seen one in a personal computer and recognize the many folds that increase the surface area available to collect heat.
When designing your thermal management system, we can rely on a combination of multiple devices to help efficiently move your waste heat. For instance, a cold plate can make direct contact with equipment to collect your waste and then send it away toward a heat sink. This is one of many ways to help you protect your electronics while keeping an eye on costs.
