Thermal conductive potting solution for industrial controllers
—— A reliable and removable protective option after curing. In applications such as industrial automation, smart manufacturing, and energy control, industrial controllers operate in environments with high loads, high temperature rises, strong vibrations, and complex conditions for extended periods.The key challenge in the potting design of industrial controllers lies in balancing efficient heat dissipation with the removability for future maintenance, repair, and upgrades. Addressing this industry pain point, ELAPLUS has launched SIPA 1850, a low-stress, removable thermal conductive potting adhesive, providing a more reliable and flexible potting solution for industrial controllers. ❌ Non-detachable after curing, making repair essentially equivalent to scrapping ❌ High internal thermal stress, prone to cracking of solder joints and components ❌ Decreased reliability after thermal cycling ❌ Not conducive to product upgrades and rework. Modern industrial controllers, however, place higher demands on potting materials: ✔ Possesses stable thermal conductivity, reducing the operating temperature of the device ✔ After potting, exhibits good moisture resistance, vibration resistance, and electrical insulation properties ✔ After curing, is removable and repairable, enhancing the overall lifecycle value of the device II. Solution Recommendation: SIPA 1850 Thermal Conductive Potting Compound Product Positioning SIPA 1850 is a low-stress, self-adhesive, silicone thermal conductive potting compound specifically designed for electronic control systems that require heat dissipation and maintainability. III. Core Advantages of SIPA 1850 1️⃣ Efficient Heat Conduction and Stable Heat Dissipation: The thermal conductivity is stable and fast, effectively conducting the heat generated by power devices (MOS, IGBT, power modules, etc.) to the housing. This significantly reduces the temperature of hot spots inside the controller, enhancing system stability. 👉 It is particularly suitable for industrial control modules with high power density 2️⃣ Low-stress curing: After curing, the silicone elastomer system, which protects sensitive devices, maintains good flexibility and toughness, effectively absorbing thermal expansion and contraction…
