Cooling RF Device with Liquid Chiller:

under the radar

TECA Corp. manufactures an extensive line of thermoelectric, recirculating liquid chillers. Typically used in laboratories, TECA’s chiller Model RLC-1800 recently adventured out into a more unique application. In this application, TECA was able to help a contractor working for the USAF to reduce cost. The contractor required a replacement chiller with the same form, fit, and function as their original (non-TECA) equipment. The TECA engineering team found a way to modify the RLC-1800 to satisfy the customer’s requirements, while keeping the expense to a minimum. The cooling capacity of the RLC-1800 is our largest in a mountable chiller.

AEROSPACE MANUFACTURING

Aerospace Manufacturing:

liquid chiller for aerospace manufacturing application

 

To meet an Aerospace manufacturing customer requirement TECA sales and engineering team modified a standard model chiller to meet a highly specialized demand of the application, including liquid cooling, 24 VDC input and wall mounting. This recirculating liquid chiller was developed for a customer who needed something similar to the TECA LHP-300CP chiller; but it had to be a liquid cooled liquid chiller – it had to be 24 VDC input – and it had to be mounted on the wall!

The application is X-Ray inspection of aircraft engine parts. Temperature controlled water is circulated through a heat exchanger which is keeping photo diodes nice and cool, assuring quality X-Ray imaging.

CUSTOM MILITARY LIQUID CHILLER

Military Liquid chiller:

Here’s another custom military application by TECA.

Military grade liquid chiller

 

The United State Navy needed a liquid chiller to circulate coolant and also meet strict military requirements. TECA developed a custom thermoelectric liquid chiller using MIL rated components. This is a liquid chiller for circulating chilled coolant as part of a tracking system on a NAVY ship.

Note that the chilled liquid circuit is effectively “sandwiched“ between two heat sinks with rugged Mil 901 fans. Wiring and electrics are housed in a NEMA-4X/Harsh Environment enclosure with an O-ring gasket seal. This unit is rated for shipboard use in salt-spray, shock and vibration.

AIRBORNE THERMOELECTRIC LIQUID CHILLER

A customer serving the national security market specializes in remote sensing solutions. TECA Corporation’s thermoelectric, rack-mounted RLC-1400 Liquid Chiller improves the customer’s product efficiency by reliably cooling a laser and high-power electrical components, as part of an airborne system.

PRODUCTION TESTING ( COOLING DUT)

TECA’s RLC-1800 Rack Mounted Liquid Chiller offers powerful cooling as a component in the customer’s testing procedure. The customer, developing testing for a radar system, has a device under test (DUT) which contains cold plates. TECA’s RLC-1800 provides liquid cooling to the cold plates and prevents them from over heating during the process. The RLC-1800 is the most powerful liquid chiller we offer, with 620 watts cooling capacity.

FLUE GAS ANALYSIS

Flue Gas Analysis:

The customer uses the TECA TLC-702HC in a heating and cooling process in a laboratory setting. The customer’s PSA system is removing CO2 from flue gas and drying and analyzing the flue gas. The TLC-702HC is available in 120 or 240 VAC versions. Heat/Cool or Cool-Only configurations are available.
