Phase-change cooling technology is just one of the many eco-friendly and efficient thermal management methods that modern heat exchangers employ. Along with other methods such as conduction and natural/forced convection, phase-change cooling provides a much more efficient and reliable way to cool electrical enclosures than more conventional air conditioners and air compressors. By utilizing the… Read more »

What Companies Save with the Help of Heat Exchangers
Saving costs has always been a principle of good business, but there are some costs that have historically been a necessary burden. For example, electrical thermal management used to require large air conditioning apparatus that was costly to operate and cumbersome to maintain. However, the need to prevent machinery and equipment from overheating is so… Read more »
How Heat Exchangers Cool Control Panels Better
While advanced manufacturing and other forms of technology become increasingly more diverse, they still rely on concepts like electrical enclosures and control panels to power that technology. Because these enclosures and panels hold the most powerful components of electrical equipment, they are often the focal point of a system’s electrical waste heat. Therefore, electrical enclosures… Read more »
Thermal Management Concepts Leading Up to Heat Exchangers
The knowledge that electrical components generate heat and that heat can damage those components if not removed has guided technology’s creation and use for generations. However, the ability to remove that heat effectively and efficiently, with minimal effort and maximum results, hasn’t always been possible. Over the last century, the concepts behind electrical thermal management… Read more »
How Dangerous Is Condensation for Electrical Enclosures?
The trick to implementing effective electrical thermal management solutions isn’t just efficiency, but also the level of protection the solution provides for itself and the enclosure it’s attached to. While that protection most frequently involves ingress protection against environmental factors, including moisture, it also includes some level of defense against any moisture developing within the… Read more »
More Advantages of Industrial Heat Exchangers
While they may not always be ideal for every single thermal management application, heat exchangers have provided far more advantages to nearly every industry than most other solutions. That’s because the variety of benefits they provide have helped most companies streamline their electrical and other thermal management processes enough to impact their entire organizations. Today,… Read more »
Heat Exchangers’ Impact on the Consumer Experience
If you list out the benefits that consumer product manufacturers have enjoyed thanks to advanced heat exchangers, a more streamlined manufacturing process would top the first few slots. However, an equally important (though sometimes, less obvious) impact of heat exchanger technology is the myriad of benefits that consumers have enjoyed. Particularly, in the quality of… Read more »
Other Ways Heat Exchangers Optimize Productivity
After manufacturers began using heat exchangers to cool their equipment and technology, it quickly became obvious how much innovative thermal management boosted productivity. The main way heat exchangers did this was by eliminating the need for air conditioners, which required large amounts of energy and constant human intervention due to breakdowns and malfunctions. However, cooling… Read more »
Benefits of Heat Exchangers for Electrical Thermal Management
Thermal management is the type of thing that every piece of technology needs, and therefore, any company that relies on it also needs. This is why air conditioners were tolerated for so long; they were the only solution to providing the reliable, effective thermal management that large equipment, especially in manufacturing, required. Otherwise, the equipment… Read more »
Making Thermal Management Low Maintenance
There are many different reasons for companies to upgrade to heat exchangers, such as more reliable electrical thermal management and a lower overall environmental footprint. However, one of the most beneficial reasons is the fact that heat exchangers can continuously operate for years with minimal need for maintenance, upkeep, repairs, or replacement. Because companies that… Read more »
