Panel Guard Cabinet Cooler: Easy Temperature Control without Wiring
The Panel Guard Enclosure Cooler series amplifies the effectiveness of Vortex coolers for enclosure temperature regulation by incorporating a mechanical thermostat. This addition ensures optimal temperature control effortlessly, eliminating the necessity for wiring. Unlike the standard Vortex Coolers that operate with an electrical thermostat and a solenoid demanding wiring connections to the cabinet, Panel Guard models simplify the installation process by removing the need for wiring, thereby expediting setup and preserving the energy efficiency benefits of thermostat utilization. Available in three distinct cooling capacities, Panel Guard Enclosure Coolers are designed to meet the standards for NEMA 4 enclosures.
Vortec’s Enclosure Coolers, including the Panel Guard, are engineered to keep Electrical and Electronic Enclosures cool, uncontaminated, and secure, offering an economical and low-maintenance alternative to costly and high-maintenance air conditioning units. They effectively prevent the ingress of polluted or humid air typically introduced by fans.
Current Era of cabinet coolers
In the current era of compact, multifunctional electronic controls, variable speed drives, servos, and programmable logic controllers, the sensitivity to heat and contamination is remarkably high. Constricted cabinet dimensions further complicate efficient temperature management, leading to a heightened risk of early equipment failures. Overheating can result in misreading of digital displays, instability in controls, and unwarranted tripping of breakers below their rated loads, culminating in considerable productivity losses due to equipment or production line halts. The Vortex Enclosure Coolers, including the Panel Guard series, maintain a gentle positive pressure within the cabinet to preserve the cleanliness and dryness of electrical and electronic components. Moreover, most models feature thermostatic control to keep the enclosure temperatures within a predefined range, ensuring optimal performance and protection.
