Thermal Interface Management for EV Charging Stations
The latest generation of DC fast charging stations are equipped with power modules capable of delivering charging levels upwards of 350 kWh. In order to effectively manage the heat generated during charging cycles, engineers rely on thermal interface materials to help dissipate the excess heat. Keeping components operating in their optimum temperature range is critical to the efficiency and safety of the charging stations. Our range of thermal gap pads, thermally conductive silicone sponge and thermally conductive transfer adhesives offer flexibility in the final design.
Flexible Thermal Interface Management Gap Pads
Expect high performance from our broad variety of thermal interface materials that combine reliable and lifelong protection from environmental influences with excellent conformability, dampening and absorption, offering the flexibility engineers can build on in designing advanced transport vehicles.
