Electronics Cooling Systems

The electronics cooling system is an electrically powered system used to cool, circulate, filter, purify and monitor the demineralized water used to cool various electronic equipment. It is a self-contained, modular, unit that controls the temperature of the demineralized water system by using seawater as the cooling medium.

Maxim manufactures the electronics cooling system for DDG 51 Flight III Guided Missile Destroyers. The electronics cooling system successfully completed Environmental Qualification Testing (EQT), including: Grade A Heavyweight Shock; Vibration Type I and Type II; EMI; Airborne & Structureborne Noise.
