First Line Technology Immersion Cooling Equipment (ICE) System

Click2Contact

The Immersion Cooling Equipment (ICE) System manufactured by First Line Technology is a lightweight and portable heat stress prevention unit.

Research has proven that by immersing the forearms and hands in cold water, an individual’s core body temperature can be reduced by 1°C every 3–10 minutes depending on the temperature of the water.

The ICE system is designed to stand at a convenient height for users to immerse their hands and forearms to reduce body heat and easily allows up to six individuals to safely cool their core during rest cycles.

The rugged powder-coated aluminum frame holds up to 182 L of water and ice and up to 270 kg of total weight.

In emergency situations where full immersion is necessary, the ICE system can hold the full body weight of one adult.

The ICE System folds flat and is easily portable. One person can set the unit up in under 2 min by simply filling the waterproof and mildew-resistant vinyl basin with water and adding several bags of ice. On remote sites, commercially available ice chests can keep ice frozen for up to five days.

The users simply immerse their forearms up to the elbows and walk in place to circulate the cooler blood throughout their bodies. The workers not only feel temporary relief from the heat but are also less likely to suffer a heat stress-related illness or accident.
