AVCAF
Delivers
▪ A highly uniform flow of cooling air within each slot
▪ No substantial increase in air flow resistance
▪ More consistent temperatures across all circuit
cards and components |

Proven Solution
Proven in rigorous military
and aerospace applications, AVCAF is ideal for mission critical telecom,
datacom and data acquisition
systems. AVCAF technology has been licensed from Raytheon, and is
currently available as part of our custom and modified standard system
designs only from Tracewell. |
