Akasa, a leading provider of thermal solutions, has launched the AK-CC7409BP01, a low-profile CPU cooler designed for thermally demanding, space-constrained environments. Compatible with Intel® LGA1851 and LGA1700 sockets, the cooler integrates a copper vapour chamber heatsink and a UL-certified side blower fan to deliver reliable, sustained cooling at only 29.5mm in height, making it well-suited to 1U servers, SFF systems and other applications where vertical clearance is limited.

The AK-CC7409BP01 supports 12th-14th Generation Intel® Core™ desktop processors (LGA1700 socket) and Intel® Core™ Ultra Series 2 processors (LGA1851 socket) up to 125W TDP.

Its compact 90 x 90 x 29.5mm dimensions make it suited to a broad range of space-constrained applications, including:
• 1U rackmount servers and compact server appliances;
• Edge computing nodes and embedded AI inference platforms;
• Industrial PCs and automation controllers deployed in factory and process control environments;
• Medical imaging and diagnostic equipment requiring reliable operation within compact enclosures;
• Digital signage and point-of-sale (POS) kiosk systems with limited internal clearance; and
• Network appliances and telecommunications hardware operating in dense rack environments.

The cooler’s copper vapour chamber plate uses a sealed two-phase heat transfer process: working fluid evaporates at the CPU contact area and condenses across the chamber surface, rapidly spreading heat laterally and dissipating it through the copper fins. This mechanism reduces localised hot spots, ensures uniform heat distribution and improves thermal efficiency, particularly beneficial in compact form factor systems.

Paired with a UL-certified side blower fan, the AK-CC7409BP01 generates up to 28.04mm-H₂O static pressure to efficiently expel heat from the heatsink. PWM control from 1200 to 5500 RPM enables thermally responsive fan operation, while dual ball bearings support an 80,000-hour rated fan life expectancy, reducing maintenance overhead in always-on systems.

Spring-loaded screw mounting ensures consistent, balanced pressure and high vibration tolerance, keeping the cooler firmly mounted during extended operation. Pre-applied thermal interface material (TIM) reduces installation time and ensures consistent thermal contact from the outset.
