Water-cooled cold plate Hi-Contact™

Aavid Hi-Contact™ liquid cold plates ensure minimum thermal resistance between the device and the cold plate by placing the coolant tube in direct contact with the device base plate. Direct contact reduces the number of thermal interfaces between device and fluid thus increasing performance. Unlike competitors that use a "dry joint" leaving tiny air gaps between the base plate and tube, Hi-Contact™ designs use a patented mechanical attachment along with a thin layer of thermal epoxy to ensure the best possible thermal performance.
