In response to an urgent customer need, Cobham pioneered active vapour cycle personal cooling solutions for aircraft and ground vehicle crews. Cobham's Microclimate Cooling Units (MCUs) set the industry-standard by offering a compact and lightweight cooling system that maintains the soldier's core body temperature in extreme environments. Cobham's vapour cycle cooling solution can be applied to multiple applications, including customised electronics cooling to extend the life of your hardware. Electronics Cooling Customized Solutions Cobham can design and manufacture a custom cooling solution to meet your most demanding electronics cooling needs, where high energy density in extreme environments is the operational norm. Our unique approach uses the same active vapor cycle liquid cooling and compact compressor technology that has made us the world leader in human military personal cooling. Whether your need is to cool high power electronics found in electronic warfare and laser systems, or on any platform where equipment in small enclosures generate excessive heat due to high power demands of the electronics, we will work with you to design an optimized electronics cooling solution that will extend the life of your hardware. Cobham's thermal management team is excited to introduce its new, ultra-lightweight, rack-mounted, Electronics Cooling Unit. The ECU is compatible with ATR style rack mounts and provides active, sub-ambient cooling for electronics/avionics. The ECU, based on Cobham's highly successful Microclimate Cooling Technology for the Warfighter, provides chilled thermal fluid to heat exchangers, cold plates, or other heat removal devices. Designed for weight and space-constrained platforms and harsh environments, the ECU can be custom tailored to your required amount of cooling power. Personal Cooling Systems As a leading supplier of products and technologies supporting vital needs of the human body, Cobham's Thermal Management System products, engineered for the most demanding military environments, keep troops 'battle-ready cool.' Wearable Personal Cooling System The Cobham Personal Cooling System, (PCS) is a wearable, lightweight cooling solution designed to combat heat stress in extreme environments. The system, worn over body armor and a uniform, circulates chilled water through a vest that is worn directly against the skin or over a t-shirt. Rugged and self-contained, the portable cooling system can be mounted in a variety of positions on the body through the Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment (MOLLE) attachment system in any orientation. Vehicle Mounted Personal Cooling Systems Cobham's Microclimate Cooling System is the unit of choice for the US Army's Air Warrior program. Over 18,000 systems have been fielded for use in US military helicopters and US military ground vehicles. The units help maintain core body temperature and mitigate thermal fatigue in ambient temperatures of up to 150 degrees F, which in turn, extend mission duration. The MCS, originally designed and qualified as part of the US Army Air Warrior program for helicopter aircrew, has since been certified for use and fielded aboard US Army and US Marine Corps helicopters. The MCS has also been qualified for use on combat and tactical vehicles.
