The Heater Cooler Assembly by TE Technology, INC., which is currently in use since 1999, was subject to stringent qualification regime which included operational, field and environmentally tested after the initial build of the NEXRAD Radar and subsequent repair. TE Technology built the AC- 194 to Radar Operation Center specification. Several different brands were tested, but couldn't endure nor pass Fit, Form and Functional test required to keep the Radars operational. Acceptance of any other item other than the original would require testing to be completely accomplished, which would at a significant cost to the government and Radar systems would be unavailable during this period.
