What is a Cabinet Cooler?
Our panel coolers for electrical cabinets are an easy, reliable and affordable way to cool or climatize any type of enclosures and panels. Supreme Air Electrical Panel Cooler uses compressed air to create hot and cold air streams. Our coolers only require compressed air to operate, which eliminates the need for dangerous refrigerants or freon gases. With large cooling capacities of up to 7200 BTUs, they provide the perfect solution for quick and effective cooling in numerous types of electrical cabinets and enclosures.
What is the purpose of a Cabinet Cooler?
The cooler mounts vertically on top of the cabinet through a standard knockout hole. A locking ring provided with the cooler locks it into place.
The compressor air line connects to the cooler via a 1/4 NPT fitting.
The integrated vortex tube separates compressed air as it enters the cooler.
The hot stream from the vortex tube is exhausted into the atmosphere by passing through a muffler which ensures low noise levels.
The cold air enters the electrical cabinet though an outlet tube located at the bottom of the cooler.
As the cold stream enters the electrical cabinet, the hot air within the cabinet starts to rise and is gradually purged through the cooler.
We also offer an optional cold air distribution kit which connects to the cooler's outlet tube and allows the user to direct the cold stream to specific hot spots within the cabinet. Supreme Air Products' electrical panel coolers have been made of stainless steel for durability.
Cabinet Cooler Specifications
Mounting:
Supreme Air Products(tm) Cabinet Cooler must be vertically mounted on a flat surface for all enclosure types. A 1-1/8" diameter hole or electrical knockout can be used to mount an electrical cabinet cooler unit. The locking ring holds it in place. For those coolers that cannot be mounted on top of cabinets due to height restrictions, we offer side mount kits.
Humidity:
It is crucial to seal off all openings and vents that could allow in ambient air, particularly in hot or humid environments. Cabinet Coolers that are continuously in operation maintain a relative humidity of 45%.
Filtration:
Clean filtered air should be used on all lines that power the Cabinet Cooler. A 5 micron auto drain filter is recommended. Proper filtration is imperative to prevent any accidental water flow into the enclosure. If oil is present in the compressed air supply, use an oil filter with a minimum 0.3 micron rating.
Environment Considerations
NEMA 4/4X (IP56) - Designed for Electrical Control Panels - Splash resistant, oil-tight, and dust-proof for use in wash down environments as well as outdoor use. Coolers are constructed of Stainless Steel (Type 304) for longevity in wet environments.
NEMA 12 (IP52 - Cabinet Coolers are oil-tight and dust-proof. They can be used in environments that allow liquids to not come into direct contact with the unit. Coolers are constructed of Stainless Steel (Type 304) to withstand harsh corrosive environments.
