Liquid Cooling Systems

Temperature control is critical for medical devices, laser systems, semiconductor metrology and fabrication, additive manufacturing, electron microscopes, and many laboratory instruments used in chemistry, biology, industrial, oil & gas, research, and food science. For example, incubators and cell cultivation applications need temperature control to create the optimal conditions for cell growth, while temperature control plays a dynamic role in ensuring the proper operation of electron microscopes by controlling the temperature of sensitive equipment electronics.

Discover how our commitment to eco-friendly practices shapes the future of our thermal management solutions.

Our Product Director, Greg Ducharme (GD), sheds light on our journey towards sustainability, from refrigerant considerations to evolving compliance regulations, and the upcoming launch of our Eco-Friendly Chiller.

Can you tell us about the environmental considerations in developing our thermal management solutions?

The world relies on laboratories and the disciplines of Lab Science to conduct research, experiments, analyses, or investigations, to efficiently identify and/or produce accurate and repeatable results. Lab Science applications can involve chemical analysis, diagnostic imaging, biological testing, medical testing, environmental testing, materials testing, forensic testing, food and beverage testing, pharmaceutical testing, and many other types of tests to serve specific research, diagnostic or regulatory purposes.

The European Green Deal is an ambitious initiative by the European Union (EU) aimed at making the region more sustainable and climate neutral. Its primary goal is to transform the EU into a green and circular economy, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing environmental sustainability. The key objectives include achieving carbon neutrality by 2050.

Introduction

At Laird Thermal Systems, we are committed to eco-friendly solutions for temperature stabilization for demanding applications across global medical, analytical, industrial, transportation, and telecommunications markets.

Older compressor-based systems often use high global-warming potential (GWP) HFC refrigerants like R134a and R404A. New industry requirements are moving away from the use of such refrigerants due to their environmental impact. New government restrictions on traditional and natural refrigerants are central to compressor-based systems.
