Advanced chiller solutions for defense

Cooling for the most demanding defense applications.

Mydax specializes in multi-loop, independently controlled liquid chillers designed for defense applications requiring precise temperature management in extreme environments. Our systems support high-performance cooling for military and defense applications, such as:

Radar and electronic warfare systems
Avionics and weapons testing
Defense simulation and environmental chambers
Military-grade PAO liquid cooling
Thermal regulation for critical defense components
What sets Mydax apart
Industry first · Since 1986

Patented proportional refrigeration — engineered for defense.

Mydax was the first chiller manufacturer to offer proportional refrigeration control — the technology that delivers the stability and longevity mission-critical defense equipment depends on.

The problem with conventional chillers

Most wear and breakdowns in chiller operation are caused by On/Off temperature cycling of the refrigeration circuit’s plumbing and components — the cycling that shortens service life and risks instability in sensitive equipment.

The Mydax solution

Our proportional design smoothly adjusts refrigerant flow along the compressor’s power curve based on the cooling required, diverting excess capacity to a bypass heat exchanger. The result: tighter temperature stability, less thermal stress, and equipment that lasts in the field.
