JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - TelAve -- Snowbird Technologies today announced the launch of its newest environmental control unit (ECU), the LCAC 36K BTU/HR Composite ECU (Model LCAC100-512-001C) — a lightweight, corrosion-resistant system engineered to deliver reliable performance in the most demanding maritime environments.

The new LCAC 36K Composite ECU features a fiberglass composite cabinet with an epoxy-coated finish, Heresite-coated aluminum internals, stainless steel hardware, and insulated, corrosion-resistant copper refrigeration lines. This advanced design ensures long-lasting durability and protection against harsh saltwater exposure aboard the U.S. Navy's Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC) and Ship-to-Shore Connector (SSC) hovercraft fleets.

Compact and efficient, the unit provides filtered, cooled, and heated air through a single, self-contained system powered by an electric motor for continuous operation under varying loads. Key performance highlights include:

• Operating temperature range: -34°C to 26°C (-30°F to 80°F heating) and 12°C to 52°C (55°F to 125°F cooling)
• Two-stage heating: 9,500 BTU/hr (low) and 14,500 BTU/hr (high), for a total of 24,000 BTU/hr
• Lightweight, easy-handling design with integrated lifting handles
• Remote control panel with connection for on-craft environmental control switch
• R134A refrigerant for reliable, efficient performance

"Snowbird Technologies has proudly produced environmental control units for the U.S. Navy's LCACs and ship-to-shore connector vehicles for decades," said Scott Morse, Chief Executive and Owner of Snowbird Technologies. "This new composite model represents our ongoing commitment to innovation, sustainability, and mission readiness for our defense partners."
