Kooltronic, Inc., of Pennington, NJ, is pleased to announce the award of a contract from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, New York to supply custom heat exchangers, blowers and other air movers in integrated NEMA Type 12 rack enclosures. These cooling module rack enclosures are to be used for the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), a multi-million dollar program to design and build a world-class user facility for scientific research.                                             

The NSLS-II Program includes the planning, construction and installation of accelerator hardware, civil construction and central facilities required to produce a new synchrotron light source. The key components of the NSLS-II include an electron gun, linear accelerator, booster synchrotron, electron storage ring, beamlines and experimental stations.

Kooltronic is providing custom designed rack mounted heat exchangers, blowers and other air movers integrated into rack enclosures that will house electronic devices and power supplies for major systems throughout the facility. These equipment rack enclosure modules will be distributed along the perimeter of the electron storage ring to closely control the temperature of the power supplies, limiting power fluctuations. The rack enclosures are on vibration isolators so as not to induce movement within the electron ring.

The Kooltronic engineering staff developed the concept for the cooling modules and unique modular construction of the rack enclosures. Complete systems integration is done at Kooltronic prior to shipment.

In the 60th year of service to its customers, Kooltronic is the leading manufacturer of custom-designed and standard air conditioners, heat exchangers, fans and blowers designed specifically to cool the interior of enclosures containing heat sensitive electrical/electronic components. The company has a complete engineering and manufacturing facility and sales office at its headquarters in Pennington, NJ.
