Why Air Cooling for 2MWh Container Systems
💰 Cost Efficiency
Air conditioning solutions offer lower capital and maintenance costs compared to liquid cooling for container-scale systems, improving project ROI.
🔧 Simple Maintenance
No coolant pumps, heat exchangers, or piping networks to maintain. Standard HVAC service procedures apply, reducing O&M complexity.
⚡ Proven Reliability
Industrial-grade air conditioning technology with decades of field-proven performance in harsh environments.
📦 Container Integration
Side-mount design integrates seamlessly with standard 20ft containers, preserving internal space for battery modules.
CoolTec 7.5kW System Capabilities
Container Thermal Design
The CoolTec 7.5kW unit is installed on the side of the 20-foot container, ducting conditioned air directly into the battery compartment. This side-mount configuration maximizes internal space for battery racks while ensuring uniform temperature distribution across all modules.
