Copper Cold Plates

Copper performance-fin cold plate technologies offer virtually unlimited customization opportunities.

Lytron has several large-area, copper performance-fin cold plate technologies. Their ultra-high performance makes them ideal for moderate-to-high heat load applications. All of Lytron’s copper cold plates are custom designed to meet each application’s specific requirements. The internal fluid path, individual channel configuration and dimensions, as well as overall dimensions, fittings, and mounting features are carefully selected.

Excellent performance: All of Lytron’s copper cold plates contain micro-channels to optimize performance. This, together with the all-copper construction, results in ultra-low thermal resistance. The cooling fluid flows below the entire surface of the cold plate, resulting in excellent thermal uniformity across the mounting area.

Low pressure drop: Although the channels are very small, the liquid flows through many channels simultaneously, resulting in a low pressure drop.

Highly reliable and leak-free: Lytron’s proprietary manufacturing process results in a 100% metallurgical bond between the copper plates, guaranteeing that the cold plate is reliable and leak-free.

Water compatible: The cold plate's all-copper construction make it compatible with water and a wide range of other coolants.

Lytron specializes in the design and manufacture of custom cold plates, cold plate assemblies, cooling systems, and heat exchangers. Please view our custom solution gallery below, which shows a sample of some of the custom copper cold plates we've manufactured.

Copper Cold Plate for Electronics Cooling This small copper cold plate was designed and manufactured by Lytron for electronics cooling.

Copper-Etched Cold Plate Lytron produced a copper-etched cold plate with the fluid inlet and outlet on opposite sides of the cold plate. The locations of inlets and outlets are just one of the many customizations available with custom cold plates.

Copper Cold Plate for Diode Cooling This custom copper cold plate was designed and manufactured by Lytron for cooling diodes in the telecommunications industry. The cold plate has a custom shape, custom surface machining, custom mounting holes, and more.

Copper Cold Plate with an IGBT To meet the specific requirements of one of its customers, Lytron produced a custom copper-etched cold plate with mounting holes. Pictured here is the custom copper cold plate with an IGBT.

Small Cylindrical Custom Copper Cold Plate This very small cold plate, which fits in the palm of a hand, has copper inner fin. It was designed for an OEM in the power generation industry.
