Liquid Cooled
Liquid-cooled power supplies are devices designed to convert electrical power while providing thermal management and heat dissipation capabilities. These devices feature cooling mechanisms that use fluid to absorb and disperse heat away from the system. Unlike air-cooled power supplies that use fans and ambient air, their liquid-cooled counterparts rely on water or a coolant mixture for cooling.
Astrodyne TDI manufactures premium-quality liquid-cooled power supplies for a wide variety of applications. Learn more about how our innovative line of industrial liquid-cooled power supply products can power your technology with high operating efficiency and reliability.
Benefits of Liquid-Cooled Power Supplies
Liquid-cooled power supplies suit applications demanding high power levels or environmental protection because of their greater power density and superior heat management. They also work as a compact solution for high DC-powered systems in military and industrial settings.
The versatility of liquid-cooled industrial power supplies leads to plenty of benefits, including:
Reliable power conversion: Liquid-cooled power supplies efficiently convert energy into usable voltage as required by specific machinery or processes. They're a reliable source of power, especially in applications requiring uninterrupted supply.
Thermal management: The cooling capability of liquid-cooled power supplies helps manage heat generated during operation. This is crucial in preventing overheating, which may affect efficiency and safety during high-power applications.
Improved efficiency: Liquid-cooled power supplies maintain optimal operating conditions by regulating temperature. This allows the equipment to function better and consume less energy.
Small footprint: The liquid cooling feature allows for denser component construction without increasing the risk of too much heat, helping to save significant space in industrial settings.
Longevity: Power supplies prolong the life of your equipment, especially during frequent power interruptions. The cooling feature adds an extra layer of protection from power failure from too much heat.

LSM: 4,100W liquid-cooled sealed power module (LSM) is a high-voltage, liquid-cooled DC-DC converter that steps down 550-850VDC to a programmable 20-30VDC output
LiquaBlade™ Power Supply
Astrodyne TDI's LiquaBlade™ power supply provides a compact solution for diverse applications. It's a unique device for high-powered DC systems. It is highly efficient and reliable and has superior thermal management capabilities.
Heat capacity is an intrinsic property of matter. It refers to the limit of how much thermal energy a substance can absorb before its temperature begins to rise. Water has a higher heat capacity than air and a density that's 1000 times greater, making it more effective for heat transfer. Liquid-cooled solutions are also popular because they require a smaller surface area to transfer heat than air-cooled solutions.
LiquaBlade™ Power Supply Specifications
Astrodyne TDI designed the LiquaBlade™ to provide a reliable solution for different applications. Check out the innovative specifications of our liquid-cooled products:
Flexibility: LiquaBlade provides many models with fully adjustable outputs, 0 to 500VDC, constant voltage, current and power control methods for application flexibility.
High power density: Liquid cooling has a higher heat transfer coefficient over other cooling methods, making Astrodyne TDI’s liquid-cooled products industry leaders in power density. LiquaBlade™ can achieve up to 16.5 kilowatts of power in a 1-unit-high, 19-inch rack space.
Ingress protection: These sealed liquid-cooled power supplies provide ingress protection from dust and debris, making them ideal solutions for a broad range of environments from cleanrooms to dirty manufacturing floors.
Rugged design: LiquaBlade™ Rectifiers have been deployed in Industrial and Military programs where they have been qualified to MIL-STD shock and vibe requirements.
Regulation compliance: LiquaBlade™ and LiquaCore™ meet the industry-standard IEC/EN/UL62368-1. These liquid-cooled rectifiers also meet SEMI F47-0706 voltage sag tolerance standard, which ensures that a power supply will still function if a temporary degradation of a single-phase AC input voltage level occurs.
Coolant types: LiquaBlade™ is compatible with water, deionized water, and WEG coolant.
Noise reduction: Liquid cooling is ideal for environments that demand lower audible noise.
LiquaBlade™ water-cooled industrial power supplies meet the rigorous quality assurance guidelines set by ATDI’s best-in-class practices, including NAVSO P3641A, DFMEA, HASS and HALT.
