Vern to the Office!

Posted by Jon LaPorta on Oct 31, 2014 4:17:00 PM


Pfannenberg would like to wish one of our blue line employees a happy "2nd" retirement. Vern Agee retired several years ago from GM after working there 30 years. Looking to keep busy after retirement from GM, Vern came to work for Pfannenberg on our blue line doing assembly work for our cooling products. We asked Vern about how he's going to spend his retirement and he said he's looking forward to spending time with his family, going to the Gym, driving his Camaro and traveling.

Our production line is going to really miss him. Each day we would hear the familiar "Vern to the office" paged over the intercom and a resounding "VERN" cheered out by all of the production workers (like Norm on the classic sitcom "Cheers"). Good luck and thank you for your work here at Pfannenberg.

Happy National Manufacturing Day

Posted by Jon LaPorta on Oct 3, 2014 1:05:53 PM

Today October 3, 2014 marks National Manufacturing day. This is a day for manufacturers to support young people pursuing careers in manufacturing and engineering. This past week Pfannenberg exhibited at WEFTEC which is a show that focuses on products and services targeting the Water Industry. As I walked the mile long exhibit floor it was amazing to see the number of manufacturers exhibiting innovative products that were developed and manufactured here in the USA. My hope is that here in America we continue this innovation and manufacturing traditions. As manufacturers we have to inspire young people and make them aware of the types of jobs that are available in science, math, technology and engineering.

Safest Way to Cool with Water

Electronics Cooling with an Air to Water Heat Exchanger

Water is the most efficient form of heat removal. Using an air to water heat exchanger allows you to safely cool your electronics using water, while also keeping external contaminants from entering your enclosure. Air to water heat exchangers also offer the advantage of being low maintenance while using significantly less energy than traditional methods.

Afraid to Use Water to Cool your Electronics?

Posted by Jon LaPorta on Sep 11, 2014 6:35:00 PM


Afraid to Use Water to Cool Your Electronics? You Shouldn't Be:

Air Conditioners have condensate management precisely to handle the water that is already in your enclosures. 

Many enclosure cooling devices for industrial thermal processing are designed to handle environments where water is present. The off-the-shelf systems incorporate condensate management to handle water in your enclosures. What is that? There is no water near your electronics? That is where you are wrong: The water is hidden in the vapor form in the air. Fortunately when managed correctly it has no effect on the components inside the enclosure.
