Keeping Contaminants Out of Electrical Cooling Cabinets

There are several factors to consider when designing a thermal management system for electrical cabinets. Energy consumption, for instance, will have long-term effects on the cooling system’s efficiency, as well as its need for maintenance and overall shelf-life. Also, for most electrical cabinets, the cooling system must be designed in a way that minimizes or… Read more »

Cooling Electrical Enclosures without Condensation

The point of keeping electrical cabinets cool is to stop waste heat from damaging the electrical equipment. Traditionally, this has been achieved with a variety of methods; the most common of which were air conditioning and compressed air cooling units. However, with today’s high-powered and high-performance technology, such solutions require massive energy consumption, and in… Read more »

Tips for Upgrading Your Cabinet Cooling Systems

To stay competitive, companies across all industries have to eventually reevaluate and upgrade their operating systems. One of the biggest mistakes engineers make when implementing new technology is neglecting to design new cooling methods to meet the new requirements. Though upgraded equipment is designed to be more efficient, that doesn’t always mean that it gives off… Read more »

A More Cost-Efficient Way to Handle Electrical Waste Heat

Thermal management solutions have continued to adapt to meet the increasing demands of smaller, faster, and more powerful technology. In many ways, those demands are felt most strongly in fields such as manufacturing, industrial automation, food and beverage processing, etc., which rely more and more on high-performance, complex electrical equipment. In addition to keeping electrical… Read more »

Thermal Management Terms – Different Ways to Cool Electrical Equipment

If electrical devices could reach 100 percent efficiency—meaning they didn’t generate waste heat as they operated—then cooling systems would not be needed to prevent overheating. Unfortunately, that isn’t currently possible; however, thermal management for electronics has advanced impressively over the years, making it easier and more efficient than ever to keep vital electronics functioning properly….

The Value of Centralized Design and Manufacturing

Even a top-notch product can see a decline in value when it doesn’t perform as well as intended. In the production of thermal management solutions, that can prove disastrous for clients who rely on those products to keep their operations running smoothly. Such disconnect between the expectation and reality of a product often occurs because… Read more »

Complex Thermal Management Demands for Advanced Technology

As new technology changes the world, it also comes with a high demand for innovative thermal management solutions. For any technology to work, it must have a cost- and energy-efficient means of dissipating the waste heat that its electrical components generate. While air conditioners and compressed air systems used to be the gold standard for… Read more »

Heat Exchangers Solve the Air Conditioning Conundrum

When it comes to controlling the waste heat of electronic equipment, the generally accepted rule of thumb is that colder is always better. That mindset stems from an era when air conditioning and compressed air were the pinnacles of heat dissipation technology. Today, however, the high cost and energy expenditures needed to keep air conditioning… Read more »
