Advanced Thermal Solutions’ DIY aluminum cold plates allow engineers to safely drill holes in a mounting pattern that matches the target hot device. Once the right placement and design are determined, ATS can manufacture the custom cold plate for prototypes or production.

Cold plates in the DIY lineup offer the same thermal performance as the company’s standard cold plate family. According to ATS, the cold plates deliver 30% better thermal performance than other commercially available cold plates. An internal mini-channel fin structure ensures uniform cold plate surface temperature. Additionally, the plates are compatible with industry accepted coolants and leak tested to 100 psi.

DIY cold plates give engineers the freedom to drill holes to match the specific connection points of the device being cooled, such as IGBTs, MOSFETs, and other power electronics. Each plate includes an etched no-drill zone to provide a visual exclusion guide. DIY cold plates are suitable for a wide variety of applications where air cooling is insufficient, including EV motorcycles, military vehicles, commercial aircraft, electric vehicles, and high-performance computers.

The DIY cold plate series comprises five devices in various sizes. View datasheets and check distributor stock using the link to the produce page below.
