MODULAR COOLING & HEATING UNIT (MCHU)
Enhancing Performance, Ensuring Success ®
Isotherm Part 474012
400-800 Watt @ 24 Volt DC
The modular Cooling and Heating Unit (MCHU), mainly designed for military vehicles, combines a programmable heater with a fast and efficient thermoelectric water chiller for keeping the crew hydrated. Our new combination unit has been designed to meet the requirements of the soldier operating in warmer climates or conditions where cooling is extremely important.
Our 24-Volt DC water and ration heaters are now pre-programmable, permitting the end temperature to be achieved quickly; a significant power decrease, triggered automatically or manually, then maintains content at a slightly lower temperature while satisfying a stringent power budget.
