Using our extremely low-cost, reliable Vortex Tube, these Panel Enclosure Coolers will purge AND cool electronic/electrical enclosures with filtered air that's up to 45°F colder than the compressed air supply. Built into the cooler is a relief valve that exhausts the hot air from the cabinet, while the cooler continues to supply clean cold air. Our Panel Enclosure Coolers are ideal for all NEMA 4/4X (IP56) and NEMA 12 (IP52) rated panels. They mount in minutes through a standard knockout.

How to determine size requirements of the Panel Enclosure Cooler |
|
- Determine the watts of heat generated inside the enclosure.
[ Watts x 3.41 = (W) Btu/hr.]
- Determine the area in square feetthat is exposed to the air, not including the top of the cabinet.
[ 2 x {Width} + 2 x {Depth} ] {Height} = (S) Square feet of cabinet
- Determine the temperature difference between the desired internal temperature and the maximum expected external temperature. Now you can use the below chart to determine the Btu/hr./sq. ft., for this differential (B).
- Determine the external heat load (H).
[(S) x (W) = (H) Btu/hr.]
- Now take (W) and add (H) to get the total heat load or Btu/hr. refrigeration required to maintain desired temperature and choose the correct one using the chart.

Mounting: The STREAMTEK™ Cabinet Panel Cooler must be vertically mounted, on a flat surface surface for all enclosure types. This system is easy to install through a 1-1/8" diameter drilled hole or electrical knockout.
Humidity: It's important to close off any openings and any vents that may bring in ambient air, especially in warm or hot high humidity environments. The relative humidity inside the enclosure stabilizes at 45% for all continuous operating Cabinet Panel Coolers.
Filtration: All STREAMTEK™ Cabinet Panel Cooler systems include an auto drain 5 micron dirt and water filter. This filter is imperative to prevent any accidental water flow into the enclosure. If oil is present in the compressed air supply, use an oil filter within at least .3 micron rating.
NEMA 12 (IP52) - Cabinet Panel Coolers (oil-tight, dust-tight) are used in industrial environemnts where no liquids can come in contact with the unit. Constructed of Stainless Steel (Type 303) to withstand harsh corrosive environments.
NEMA 4/4X (IP56) - Designed for Electronic Control Panels - Splash resistant, oil-tight, and dust-tight for use in wash down environments as well as outdoor use. When the Panel Cooler is not operating a low pressure relief valve closes and seals to maintain the integrity of your NEMA 4 cabinet enclosure. Constructed of Stainless Steel (Type 303) for long life in wet environments. |
