First Claim
Patent Images
1. A precision thermal control system utilizing a heat transfer fluid for heating and cooling select equipment, the system comprising:
- a chassis;
a plurality of heat transfer assembly modules of the type formed with a plurality of low profile extrusions having micro channels formed therein and secured within said chassis for the flow of heat transfer fluid therethrough to provide in excess of 700 Watts of thermal performance for thermal control;
a power supply secured within said chassis for powering said heat transfer assembly modules; and
said chassis having a height of no more than 3U and adapted to be disposed within a 3U mounting space of a conventional equipment rack having mounting spaces with internal widths on the order of 17.5 inches for the placement of equipment therein.
