Cooling Products
Don’t leave your electronics in a sealed cabinet this summer
Rittal have introduced a range of cooling units specifically designed for outdoor enclosure applications. If you want your (electronic) kit to remain useful for longer when situated out of doors, then give it some air!
Cooling Power Electronics
Modern electronic devices, such as inverters and soft starters, need to be protected by an enclosure that is of compact dimensions and has an efficient cooling system. In normal environments the preferred option is to fan ventilate, but fans alone can be detrimental to the ingress protection (IP) classification of the enclosure. The solution lies in a combined fan and filter, designed to provide cooling air that is free of both dust and splashed water (IP54).
