Energy efficiency is particularly important in data center cooling applications. With continuous cooling demand, each incremental reduction in power consumption reduces energy bills. 

Whether it is a food manufacturer following a plant ammonia leak, a food supplier relocating its freezer to a largeån — can disrupt business as usual. Companies in the process industries should consider their cooling and cold storage needs before demand strikes to keep their businesses thriving and minimize losses.

Model EC impellers are suited for air-moving applications, including cooling of motor controls, electronics, power converter cabinets and modular air conditioners.

Designed to cool dust- and oil-tight enclosures, enclosure cooling components typically operate without much intervention. Devices such as Exair’s cabinet coolers have no moving parts and do not require maintenance — as long as they are supplied clean, dry compressed air.

ProtEX Vortex A/C enclosure cooler was granted certification for Class I, Division 1, Groups A, B, C and D; Class II, Division 1, Groups F and G; and Class III. The UL classification is on top of the existing ATEX certification for Zones 1 and 21, which complies with the latest EN ISO 80079 36:2016 standard. 

An updated online heat load calculator allows users to determine cooling requirements for their specific enclosure. The online tool is designed to help users size enclosure cooling systems.

Industrial air-conditioner cooling units often are used for cooling sealed enclosures. Yet, a cooler ambient environment could be used to help cool a warm electrical enclosure. 

The popularity of enclosure coolers has grown exponentially in the last 40 years. The implementation of more sophisticated electrical equipment in industrial applications led to a demand for a more effective method to control enclosure internal temperatures.

The miniaturization of high powered electronics — and the requisite component density that entails — have led engineers to explore cooling methods of increasing complexity. 

Tunnel Series offers cooling capacities exceeding 100 W. Available in standard and custom configurations, the thermoelectric assemblies offer a compact form factor that fits inside analytical and medical instrumentation with tight space constraints.
