The cryo PBC is a particle beam weapon with a dedicated cooling jacket built around the PBC itself, drawing heat away from the weapon to prevent the PBC overloading.

Liquid Coolant is pumped at high speed across the PBC emitter and back to the radiator array on the PBC's rear. This makes it ideal for use on small ships with minimal heat requirments, or for continued fire from a ship with plentiful power.





Annotation 3785.001: Jafs: "And the coolant system can be converted into a mean still with just a little tinkering"

Annotation 3785.001: Smith, Lemuel: "Careful what you're tinkering with, you fool. Without the coolant a PBC's melt itself in a few shots. Anyway, the coolant fluid used in PBC's is toxic, so I'd hate to try any of your home-made booze"
