Liquid cooling hoses for electric vehicles
Danfoss Power Solutions has launched two new hose solutions specifically for liquid cooling applications. Boston by Danfoss Emperor EHW094 TPU hose and Royal EHW194 EPDM hose offer performance and high flexibility for electric vehicles, data centres, and other liquid cooling needs.
As electric equipment and machinery become more powerful and complex, liquid cooling has emerged as a more energy-efficient and cost-effective alternative to air cooling systems. Both Emperor EHW094 and Royal EHW194 hoses are optimised for liquid cooling applications to provide reliable and leak-free fluid conveyance. Liquid cooling can significantly improve efficiency, opening up new possibilities for machine design.
Emperor EHW094 hose meets the highest-level flame rating available (UL 94 V-0) and is non-conductive at 25,000+ volts dielectric strength. Constructed from thermoplastic polyurethane, it is the first solution of its kind for liquid cooling. Royal EHW194 is also UL 94 V-0 rated. It features a synthetic EPDM rubber construction with fire retardant cover. Both hoses offer high flexibility with torsional strain and kink resistance to simplify routing in tight spaces.
“The need to remove heat efficiently and effectively is a considerable challenge in designing today’s electric equipment,” said Dimitar Atanasov; global product management leader for Fuel, Air Conditioning, Thermoplastic, and Specialty hoses; Danfoss Power Solutions. “Selection criteria for cooling components differ by application, which is why we’ve designed and added these two new options to our portfolio of cooling solutions. Our non-conductive Emperor EHW094 TPU hose delivers in both performance and reliability, while our Royal EHW194 EPDM hose represents a cost-effective solution to meet a number of application needs.”
Emperor EHW094 hose and Royal EHW194 hose are both available in six sizes and a range of colours.
