During a recent visit with our distributor in Lima, Peru I had the pleasure of visiting a beverage manufacturing facility to discuss EXAIR’s Cabinet Coolers. They have several panels throughout the facility with A/C units installed. A lack of adherence to scheduled maintenance was causing the filters to clog and restrict the cooling power of the A/C unit. Due to staffing issues, their maintenance department was very thin and regular maintenance items were getting missed.
When the filters would clog, the panels would overheat and stop production. Their solution was to open the panel up and blow fans on them, forcing even more dust into the enclosure. In their search for an alternative solution, they came across EXAIR’s Cabinet Cooler Systems and reached out to our distributor. The A/C unit that was installed on the panel had a capacity of 800W (2,728 Btu/hr). EXAIR offers a 2,800 Btu/hr system from stock that matched up perfectly for them.
They installed a Model 4340-24VDC Nema 12 Cabinet Cooler System with 24VDC thermostat control and removed the A/C system. With no moving parts and no refrigerants, there’s absolutely no maintenance required. Just set it and forget it! The Cabinet Cooler has kept the electronics inside at 95°F, preventing any potential for heat related shut downs. Since all Cabinet Coolers must be installed onto a sealed enclosure, there is no need for filters on the enclosure to prevent dirty ambient air from entering. They’re now working to replace each of the A/C units in the facility with an EXAIR Cabinet Cooler.
EXAIR manufactures Cabinet Coolers for any industrial environment. Cabinet Coolers maintain Nema 4, Nema 4X, and Nema 12 integrity on the enclosure and are also UL Listed and CE Compliant. For applications that may be in a classified area, the Hazardous Location Cabinet Cooler has been approved by UL for use in Class 1 Div 1 – Groups A, B, C, and D; Class II Div 1 – Groups E, F, and G; and in Class III areas. Cooling capacities as high as 5,600 Btu/hr can be achieved with one of our Dual Cabinet Cooler Systems.
