Enhanced Enclosure Protection: ATEX Vortex A/C Cabinet Coolers
Vortex cooling: ATEX Vortex A/C Coolers, crafted for purged electrical enclosures in ATEX Zones 2/22 and Temperature Class T4 locales embody the latest in Vortec’s reliable, cost-efficient enclosure cooler series. The ATEX Vortex A/C offers four cooling capacities (900 to 5,000 BTU/hr), fitting diverse enclosure sizes and heat loads. Vortec’s Vortex Cabinet Coolers maintain electrical/electronic enclosures cool, clean, and protected, presenting a cost-effective, low-maintenance alternative to traditional air conditioners while preventing dirty, humid air infiltration, common in fan-based systems. Compact multi-functional electronic controls, variable speed drives, servos, and PLCs are highly heat/dust-sensitive. Managing temperatures in smaller cabinets is challenging, often leading to premature component failure. Overheating can cause inaccurate digital display readings, unreliable controls, and premature circuit breaker tripping, resulting in productivity losses due to machine/line shutdowns. The ATEX Vortex A/C Cooler effectively counters these issues, enhancing sensitive electronic components’ reliability and operational performance.
