Portuguese Navy: A Case Study in Custom Thermal Engineering
Europeltier is proud to serve as a supplier to the Portuguese Navy, providing tailor-made cooling solutions for the electrical panels onboard its vessels.
It all began with active listening. We took the time to understand every technical constraint, fixed configuration and operational challenge. It became clear that conventional systems simply wouldn’t meet the stringent demands. So, we designed bespoke cooling systems from the ground up, adhering to every standard, physical limitation and specific requirement. The outcome? Robust, efficient systems aligned with the highest technical standards of Naval Defence.
