Power Supply Cooling Methods That Maximize Efficiency
Thermal management is a crucial factor in power supply lifespan, volumetric efficiency, and operational reliability. Astrodyne TDI's engineering teams draw on more than 60 years of thermal dissipation expertise to offer tailored cooling architectures for AC/DC and DC/DC power conversion systems.
From high-kilowatt liquid-cooled racks operating in semiconductor fabs to fanless conduction cooling inside sealed military enclosures, our cooling solutions eliminate thermal bottlenecks, reduce noise, and safeguard mission-critical uptime.
Maximum Power Density
Liquid cooling delivers up to 16.5kW in compact 1U form factors without acoustic noise.
Cleanroom Compatible
Fanless liquid and conduction platforms prevent particulate circulation in fabs.
Harsh Environment Ready
Sealed conduction units designed to withstand dust, moisture, and intense vibration.
ISO Certified Quality
Manufactured under ISO 9001:2015, AS9100D, and ISO 13485 quality frameworks.
Cooling Architectures
AC/DC and DC/DC Power Supplies By Cooling Type
Select the precise cooling method tailored to your application's thermal budget, mechanical constraints, and ambient working environment.
Liquid Cooled
Employs liquid coolant loops (water/glycol) for extreme heat extraction. Enables multi-kilowatt power output in compact 1U chassis with zero fan noise and zero particulate circulation.
Forced Air
Integrated high-reliability fan modules and optimized heatsinks deliver active thermal management with full control over output voltage, current, and dynamic system integration.
Conduction Cooled
Conducts internal thermal loads directly to an external metal enclosure or cold plate. Designed for fanless operation in sealed HazLoc, military, and rugged industrial applications.
Convection Cooled
Relies on natural thermal air movement for cooling. Ideal for sensitive medical devices and acoustic-sensitive equipment requiring silent, highly dependable performance.
