Specifications and Procedures
  • Temperature Management: Natural convection can lead to a temperature rise of approximately +25 Kelvin inside an enclosure. Exhaust filters prevent dirt from entering the cabinet.
  • Heat Radiation Calculation: The formula for calculating heat radiated from an electronic cabinet is PR(W) = C x A x ∆T, with C varying by material.
  • Airflow Calculation for Filter Fans: Required airflow is calculated using V = 3.1 (PD) / ∆T, with V2 values indicating fan ratings with static pressure drop.
Cooling Recommendations
  • Filter Fans: Limit temperature rise to +10 Kelvin above ambient.
  • Closed Loop Cooling Units: Necessary for reducing cabinet temperature below ambient, suitable for NEMA type 12 to 4x applications.
Cooling Unit Selection and Installation
  • Criteria for Cooling Unit Selection: Consider cooling capacity, mounting requirements, and dimensions.
  • Pfannenberg Cooling Units: Operate on the Carnot cycle, with features like tool-less installation and energy-saving modes.
Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings
The εCOOL series reduces energy consumption by up to 43% compared to conventional units, with significant savings in assembly and service times.
Conclusion
Pfannenberg's products ensure efficient thermal management, reduce energy consumption, and enhance production process reliability. The document encourages considering Pfannenberg's solutions for specific cooling and thermal management needs.

Why reliable cooling units are so important for your electrical enclosure A Pfannenberg cooling unit for your electrical enclosure is much more than just an accessory. In fact, it is basically the backbone of your entire production process because trouble-free production is only guaranteed if the sensitive climate inside your electrical enclosures is maintained. Even the slightest overheating of the electronic controller units can result in serious consequences such as long standstills, delivery problems or total breakdown. Therefore, we not only take into account the demands placed on your equipment,...

Determine the correct air conditioning products When can Filterfans be used? If the ambient temperature is always lower than the temperature required in the electrical enclosure, then lterfans represent an economical solution for thermal management of electrical enclosures. Important for the use of Filterfans: Use lterfans to force the surrounding air into the electrical enclosure, so that a slight overpressure builds up inside the enclosure. The surrounding air enters the electrical cabinet exclusively via the lterfan, which ensures that it is ltered. Install the lterfan in the lower third of...
