-
Military-Grade Durability (IP68 Rated):
Fully dustproof and waterproof, the MD18 is ideal for field operations, underground mining, and heavy transport exposed to extreme environmental stress. -
Compact, Versatile Form Factor:
Measuring just 192 x 135 x 153mm and weighing 5.5kg, it integrates seamlessly into tight engine bays, vehicle cabins, or mobile control units where space is a premium. -
12V Brushless DC Technology:
Delivers smooth, efficient cooling with minimal maintenance. Internally housed BLDC controller with suction-flooded cooling protects electronic components under sustained load. -
Energy-Efficient Operation:
Variable speed range from 2000 to 4500 RPM allows for dynamic output control based on cooling demand — minimizing power draw while preserving cooling power of up to 2.15kW (7.3k BTU). -
Low Power Draw with High Cooling Output:
At 12V, the MD18 consumes between 30A and 96A depending on RPM and ambient load, supporting field operations on battery, solar, or DC alternator systems without engine dependency. -
Intelligent System Protection:
Built-in smart diagnostics and soft-start technology safeguard against voltage spikes and start-up surges, prolonging component lifespan.
Application-Ready for Demanding Sectors
-
Transport & Fleet Vehicles:
Perfect for long-haul trucks, sleeper cabins, and refrigeration units where idle-free climate control improves driver comfort and reduces fuel costs. -
Mining & Construction Machinery:
Withstand high-vibration, high-dust environments while delivering dependable cooling to protect operators and sensitive electronics. -
Defense & Tactical Systems:
Engine-free, low-profile cooling for armored vehicles, field command posts, and remote surveillance systems—ideal for silent standby or covert operations. -
Corporate Mobile Workstations:
Maintain climate control in mobile offices, utility vans, or telecommunications rigs with quiet, efficient, DC-powered operation.
