Centrx’s Hi-Perform Liquid Cooled SCR Heat Sinks are Big Performers

Read more details about the significant gains you can expect when incorporating Centrx Hi-Perform SCR Heat Sinks in your assembly design below.

Lightweight with Optimum Cooling CapabilitiesThese SCR heat sinks are capable of high heat loads, low pressure drop and require less physical space than other industrial coolers. Accordingly, they are excellent in providing lower electronic device operating temperature and supply uniform cooling without ‘hot spots’ across their cooling faces. Besides weighing less than competitors’ assemblies, their optimum cooling extends device life and dependability. In modern designs, weight and space real estate are sacred, especially for traction and mobile applications. Who wants or can afford larger enclosures for assemblies in industrial builds, when an overall smaller envelope and better cooling are available?

These SCR heat sinks allow more heat to be transferred from the electronic device to the circulating cooling fluid and carried off to a designated place of exchange in the atmosphere. This also helps reduce overall internal cabinet enclosure temperature.

Slim-cropped-268x300-22) Centrx Hi-Perform SCR Heat Sinks are thin in cross section. The performance design allows manufacturing the finished SCR Heat Sink section width of just 0.6 inches or 15.2 mm! This represents a typical width space savings of 30 to 40 percent, depending on the competitor comparison. Remember, space savings are for each SCR heat sink used in the final assembly, and that adds up huge!

3) Incorporated bus bars also dramatically reduce total assembly stack up space. There are four stock designs for these performing coolers: No bus, Straight Bus Up, Straight Bus Down, and Ell Bus. The Straight and Ell designs incorporate the typical bus bar. There is no need to couple stand-alone bus bars to non-bus heat sinks. All that does is add length and weight to the assembly, consume more materials, extend the required length of the clamp, increase the insulation length requirement, and add time, complexity or inventory requirements at the assembly build. More cost.

Hosing is easily accommodated in the space between the mounting plane and the SCR heat sinks, and ultimately requires less cabinet space and is much more conserving than hoses extending from side ported designs.

5) The space savings grows exponentially with each SCR heat sink in an assembly build. The illustration at the bottom of the page compares the use of traditional components, shown behind an assembly utilizing high performance SCR heat sinks. It’s easy to conceptualize how much space and weight can be conserved per assembly.

To summarize: There are many advantages to using high performance SCR heat sinks in design builds. Space and weight conservation, simpler and faster assembly construction, and lower electronic device operating temperature optimize competitive advantage.
