Cabinet Coolers End Costly Shutdowns White Paper
Why is compressed air safety a concern?
How Cabinet Coolers Can End Costly Shutdowns
A low cost, reliable way to cool and purge electronic control panels. EXAIR Cabinet Coolers incorporate a vortex tube to produce cold air from compressed air - with no moving parts. NEMA 12, 4, and 4X Cabinet Coolers that match the NEMA rating of the enclosure are available in many cooling capacities for large and small control panels. Cabinet Coolers convert an ordinary supply of compressed air into clean, cold 20ºF air. Learn more about Cabinet Coolers in EXAIR's white paper "How EXAIR Cabinet Coolers Can End Costly Shutdowns".
