Guchen Cold Plates - Direct Refrigerant Cooling Solution
As electric vehicles become more powerful and compact, thermal management of the battery system plays a crucial role in ensuring safety, performance, and longevity. One of the most efficient and cost-effective technologies in the market today is the battery cold plate, specifically designed for direct refrigerant cooling (direct-to-cell cooling). Guchen Industry offers an advanced battery direct cooling plate tailored for Battery Electric Vehicles and Range-Extended Electric Vehicles applications.
What is a Direct Cooling Plate?
A direct cooling cold plate is a thermal management component that allows direct contact between the refrigerant and the battery cells, enabling rapid heat dissipation. This technology ensures that temperature within the battery pack remains uniform, preventing hot spots and improving the overall performance of the vehicle. Unlike traditional indirect liquid cooling plates that rely on intermediate media (like water or glycol), the direct cold plate circulates refrigerant such as R134a directly through the internal channels of the plate.

Key Features and Advantages of Guchen Refrigerant Battery Cooling Plate
01
Highly Efficient Direct Cooling Technology
This cold plate uses direct refrigerant-to-cell cooling technology, which means that refrigerant flows through precision-formed internal channels that are in close proximity to the battery cells. This ensures efficient heat dissipation for batteries, maintaining the battery within its ideal temperature range even under high load conditions.
02
Stamped Structure for Uniform Temperature Distribution
Guchen cold plate is manufactured using a stamped structure, which ensures high dimensional consistency and excellent temperature uniformity. This design improves heat spread across the surface, reducing temperature gradients within the battery pack and contributing to longer battery life.
03
Lightweight, Durable, and Corrosion-Resistant
Made from high-quality 3003MOD and 6061MOD aluminum alloys, the cold plate offers a superior combination of light weight, corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength. 3003 series: Yield strength > 50 MPa; Tensile strength > 150 MPa
6061 series: Yield strength > 90 MPa; Tensile strength > 160 MPa
Deformation under pressure is strictly controlled to < 0.1mm
With its lightweight battery module cooling plate design, this solution contributes to overall vehicle energy efficiency while maintaining structural reliability. The anti-corrosive surface coating further enhances the cold plate’s durability in harsh automotive environments, extending product service life.
04
Cost-Effective Manufacturing
With a focus on mass production scalability, the plate adopts a low-cost stamping process that ensures excellent part-to-part consistency, making it ideal for OEMs seeking cost-efficient solutions without compromising performance.
05
Customizable Design
The cold plate is adaptable to different battery configurations. Custom size cold plates for battery modules are available to meet varying packaging demands from different EV platforms, whether cylindrical, pouch, or prismatic cells are used.
06
Easy Installation and Integration
The design supports peripheral bolt mounting, making integration into various battery module architectures straightforward. The flexible design can also be customized to fit different cell layouts and battery pack configurations.
