Direct air cooling reduces the high capital and operating cost of heat exchangers and air conditioning

Improves Thermal Efficiency No thermal transfer loss Better Watts/K Cooling Capacity More uniform airflow through cabinet Directs airflow to hotspots Wider temperature deployment range	Lower Capital Expenses Cost much less than air conditioning Reduces back-up energy requirements Simplifies component placement	Lower Operational Costs Uses less energy than air conditioning systems Requires less maintenance Significantly improves MTBF Reduces space rental costs	Smaller Size and Less Noise Takes up less space Lower weight reduces transportation and installation costs No external fans for lower noise emissions

Direct air is one of the most efficient cooling methods available. When combined with high efficiency membrane filters it offers thorough protection from salt, dust, water and other contaminants. This results in the most reliable and cost-effective protection for your sensitive electronics. GORE® Cooling Filters technology enables direct air cooling by providing critical contamination protection while still allowing high airflow. Unlike bulky heat exchangers or costly air conditioning systems, GORE® Cooling Filters let you benefit from the thermal efficiency of ambient air while reducing capital and operational costs.
