DLC - Direct Liquid Cooling with non-conductive coolants   

● Best cooling efficiency of all known cooling methods  Allows an extremely compact high voltage switch design in connection with excellent Pd(max) specifications  ● The absence of grounded heatsinks minimizes the stray capacitance with the result of faster electrical rise time and lower power losses at high operating frequencies  ● The DLC principle allows a very homogenous cooling of the entire electronics of the switching module and reduces significantly the thermal stress at cyclic load change.

Technical Note: Behlke DLC cooling systems can be operated with GALDEN® or any other similar PFPE / PFC / HFE heat transfer fluid. A cost efficient alternative to the PFPE / PFC / HFE coolants is the low viscose sillicone oil WACKER AK 10 (chemically compatible to all materials of BEHLKE DLC switches). Mineral transformer oils are partly not compatible to BEHLKE DLC systems. Please consult BEHLKE for more information regarding transformer oil restrictions.

Pump Units
PU-2  ● "Intelligent" pump unit with coolant reservoir and built-in control electronics for the pump motor and possible external radiator fans. Highly reliable design for professional purposes. The pump housing / reservoir is milled from a billet aluminum block and allows an absolute leakage free operation also at  high temperature and high pressure. The front side of the unit, which is usually mounted behind the front panel of a system housing (e.g. a 19 inch housing unit), has an o-ring sealed viewing window for the built-in flow turbine wheel. The flow turbine wheel serves as a visual flow indicator and as digital flow sensor in the same time. Double ball bearing in connection with optical scanning guarantees a MTBF of several hundred thousand hours for this safety relevant part component.

The built-in electronics is monitoring the coolant flow, the tank fill level (also by optical sensors), the coolant temperature, the motor function and the supply voltage. The speed of the pump motor and the speed of the externally connected radiator fans is regulated proportionally to the coolant temperature. The automatic speed control can be turned-off by a logic signal for full cooling power or external speed control over the supply voltage, if demanded.

In case of any fault condition (over temperature, flow disturbance, empty reservoir, missing or incorrect supply voltage etc.) a relay contact is immediately released to protect the connected power electronics in the cooling circle. For Behlke HTS high voltage switches, the alarm contact (normaly closed contact) will simply be connected between the "Inhibit" and the "GND" input of the switch control. Any false or critical operating condition will also be indicated by different color illuminations of the coolant, which is visible through the viewing window. During normal cooling operation the color of illumination is blue. Other colors are available, to meet individual front panel design requirements.  

If ordered with option "IHE" (internal heat exchanger), the pump block with its plain milled surfaces can also be utilized as a highly efficient heat exchanger / heat sink. With the help of the option "IHE", the coolant heat  can be easily transferred via the housing block to an existing heatsink. This can be a classical heatsink or any large massive metal housing (e.g. a 19 inch housing with thick front panel) or a large metal chassis of a machine. A cooling solution with option "IHE" allows a power dissipation of at least 500 Watt without active radiators.

The maximum cooling capacity with sufficient active radiators is approx. 3000 Watt for the standard pump unit and  approx. 5000 Watt in connection with the power option "30W".  

The option "EFSI" (extra features for system integration) includes an additional optocoupler output (open collector), a digital flow signal output and an integrated coolant temperature sensor according to customers specifications (PT100, KTY, NTC etc.)
