The short-circuit risk caused by particle contamination does not increase linearly, but exponentially. Introducing the concept of "technical cleanliness" into the product design stage can effectively reduce the risk of short-circuit failure of electronic components and enhance system reliability and safety.
Contaminants are classified as metallic particles, non-metallic particles and fibers. Among them, the most popular types are metallic and non-metallic particles, but the damage caused by fibers should not be ignored and may also cause component failure.
Liquid-cooled cooling systems are becoming one of the mainstream cooling solutions for servers due to their efficient and stable heat transfer capability. However, the stable operation of a liquid cooling system is highly dependent on the internal cleanliness management of the system.
Fluids are used frequently in many industries, but contaminants in hydraulic oils and particles in injectable needles can have an impact on product performance and safety.
Therefore, it is important to choose a suitable method for liquid particle monitoring.
Complex components in a system often consist of multiple interconnected parts, each with complex structures and tight tolerances (allowable variations). Even the smallest contaminant can therefore impair the functionality, durability and safety of these components.
In the aviation industry, the cleanliness of parts is critical to ensure the safety of the passengers who fly every day. Even a small amount of grease or tiny particles left on an aviation part can lead to unforeseen disasters.
