Primary heat exchange utilized to cool the Saturn V Launch Vehicle Digital Component (LVDC), Flight Control Computer and other Instrument Unit (IU) installed electronics during flight and prelaunch operations. The heat exchanger flowed a combination of Methanol and distilled water (circulated through the electronics and back to the sublimator plates exposed to the vacuum of space) to reject waste heat.

In one of the below images, have removed a cover to expose the sublimator plates (the covers are removed during actual flight operation.

$975 shipped ground within the continental U.S.
