Power losses and air cooling requirements
Cooling requirements
To protect the components from overheating, the control cabinet requires a cooling air flow,
which depends on the power loss of the individual components.
Formula for calculating the cooling airflow:
● Power loss:
● Δ T:
Measures in order to ensure that the components are adequately cooled
● Add the power losses of the
individual components.
– Power Module data:
– The Control Unit power loss is
– Use the manufacturers data for
● Calculate the air flow required,
using the formula above.
● Ensure that the control cabinet is
appropriately ventilated and
equipped with suitable air filters.
● Ensure that the components
maintain the specified clearances
with respect to one another.
● Ensure that the components are provided with adequate cooling air through the cooling
openings.
● Use the appropriate air barriers to prevent cooling air short circuits
Power loss for modules in push-through technology (PT Power Modules)
When you use PT Power Modules, the majority of the power loss is dissipated through the
heatsink located outside the control cabinet.
