We live in an exciting era of rapidly changing technology wizardry in radio with IP audio and the approach of artificial intelligence.
Sometimes one can forget the mundane matters… like, um, overheating equipment, a seeming problem from the olden days.
But that problem is still around and Dielectric is still on the job.
The RF equipment maker will bring a new heat exchanger to the NAB Show.
Part of the OptiLoad line of equipment for RF load infrastructure, a release explained, “The new system introduces a two-part architecture, with an indoor RF load unit connected via hoses to an outdoor heat exchanger. This design simplifies installation while giving broadcasters flexibility to manage heat more effectively.”
Dielectric Product Line Manager, RF Engineering, Jacub Emery said, “With the new external heat exchanger, we can move that heat outside the building entirely. That’s a major advantage in warmer climates or any facility where HVAC capacity is a concern.”
He added, “With high-power systems, you can be removing up to 80 kilowatts of heat from the room. That translates directly into reduced HVAC load, smaller cooling systems, and meaningful cost savings in both infrastructure and ongoing operation.”
Built-in safety triggers wil shut down transmitters if the cooling system pressure falls below a set limit.
