Heatwave Havoc: Unraveling The Ripple Effects On Your Production Line in ATEX Zoned Areas

Heatwave Havoc: Unraveling The Ripple Effects On Your Production Line in ATEX Zoned Areas
Thermostat controlled ATEX Cabinet Cooler® Systems are engineered and approved for use upon purged electrical enclosures found within ATEX zoned areas. These ATEX Cabinet Cooler Systems have been tested by UL and meet the stringent ATEX requirements for these areas.

Cabinet Cooler Systems are a low cost and reliable way to cool purged electric control panels founds in the environments. The areas approved are Zones 2 and 22. ATEX Cabinet Coolers are available in cooling capacities from 1,000 Btu/hr. to 5,600 Btu/hr. They can be installed in minutes through a standard electrical knockout.

Thermostat control systems are the most efficient way to operate a Cabinet Cooler. They save air by activating the cooler only when internal temperatures approach critical levels. Thermostat controlled cooler systems are the best option when experiencing fluctuating heat loads caused by environment or seasonal changes. Standard thermostat control systems include an adjustable thermostat factory set at 95°F (35°C).

Continuous Operation ATEX Cabinet Cooler® Systems are recommended when constant cooling and constant positive purge are desirable. 

Aluminum ATEX Cabinet Coolers incorporate a low pressure relief valve which closes and seals when the cooler is not operating to maintain the integrity of a NEMA 4 enclosure (dust-tight, oil-tight, splash resistant, indoor/outdoor service). Stainless Steel ATEX Cabinet Coolers maintain the integrity of a NEMA 4X enclosure (dust-tight, oil-tight, splash resistant, indoor/outdoor service, corrosion resistant). 

Each of these systems include a water-dirt filter separator to prevent water condensate and dirt from entering your enclosure and a cold air distribution kit used to direct the air for circulation or onto hot spots. All Cabinet Coolers are CE compliant. EXAIR’s ATEX Cabinet Cooler Systems are not purged and pressurized control systems and should not be relied upon nor used in place of a purged and pressurized controller. They are meant for use in conjunction with a purged and pressurized control system.

ATEX Cabinet Cooler Systems are only one of the options available to you to keep your production line cool.
