ATS-03D-18-C3-R0

The ATS-03D-18-C3-R0 thermal - heat sink is a solid state component that works as an efficient dissipater of heat, ensuring that nearby components or parts don’t overheat. This type of thermal cooling device can be used in a multitude of applications, particularly those with limited space, as it is compact and relatively lightweight. It is also commonly used in high-power applications or in harsh environment conditions.

The ATS-03D-18-C3-R0 works by cool-dissipation. This involves transferring heat either from an electronic component or device into the environment or from an area with a lower temperature to one with a higher temperature. A heat sink allows for the heat generated by a component to be dissipated before it causes the ambient temperature to rise too far. When placed within a device, the heat sink can prevent the device from becoming damaged or malfunctioning due to overheating.

As a skived heat sink, the ATS-03D-18-C3-R0 offers superior design flexibility allowing for optimal heat dissipation. This product features fin profiles which are skived from a aluminum extrusion in a range of sizes. With skived heat sinks, the cooling fins are relatively thin, allowing the heat transfer coefficient to be improved. This type of heat sink is also much more reliable than a stamped heat sink and can be designed for high pressures.

The ATS-03D-18-C3-R0 has a wide range of applications, particularly in cooling elements of custom high-performance electronic assemblies such as radio frequency amplifiers. It can also be effectively used in electronic enclosures and on internal boards. It is particularly suited for use in harsh industrial environments, such as dust-laden or corrosive atmospheres, but is also reliable in all general-purpose applications. Additionally, it is often used for cooling and insulation of components in high-pressure and/or high-current operations where heat dissipation is necessary.

The working principle of the ATS-03D-18-C3-R0 is one of convection. This means that the heat is conducted from a certain point in the device or component to the heat sink. Heat is then dissipated by the heat sink and by the circulation of air which is either created by the device or by fans attached to the heat sink. Airflow also helps to reduce the ambient temperature of the surrounding air giving additional cooling to the device or part.

The ATS-03D-18-C3-R0 can be manufactured in custom shapes and sizes to suit the needs of a particular application. It is also available with a wide range of mounting options including screw, stud and clip-on for easy installation and removal. Furthermore, the large fin area of the ATS-03D-18-C3-R0 ensures maximum thermal transfer efficiency.

In conclusion, the ATS-03D-18-C3-R0 Thermal - Heat Sink is an effective heat dissipation device that offers an excellent cooling solution for many applications. It works by dissipating heat from electronic components or devices, and can be customized to fit almost any device. The wide range of applications and the ease of installation make the ATS-03D-18-C3-R0 a reliable and cost-effective solution for managing thermal regulation and heat control in many applications and environments.
