Rittal Thermoelectric Coolers
Rittal thermoelectric coolers deliver dependable, solid-state cooling for enclosures. The Peltier-effect Rittal thermoelectric cooler protects sensitive electronics and industrial control panels with no compressor, refrigerant or filter maintenance needed. Rittal thermoelectric coolers are best applied for smaller enclosures with moderate heat loads where standards-compliant enclosure air conditioners may be oversized.
Multiple models of Rittal thermoelectric coolers are available to suit various cooling capacities. Compact, panel mounted construction of Rittal thermoelectric cooling units integrate easily with new or existing installations, require less space and incur less maintenance. Because there are no moving parts inside Rittal thermoelectric cooling units, they offer long life, quiet operation and are an excellent choice for vibration and shock-prone applications like enclosures mounted on mobile carts or machinery. Engineered for Rittal's enclosure platform, the thermoelectric coolers will maintain NEMA and IP protection ratings when installed to those standards on Rittal enclosures.
FAQs
What is a Rittal thermoelectric cooler?
A Rittal thermoelectric cooler is a solid-state enclosure cooling device that uses Peltier technology to remove heat without compressors or refrigerants.
When should I use a thermoelectric cooler instead of an enclosure air conditioner?
Thermoelectric coolers are best for smaller enclosures, moderate heat loads, and applications requiring quiet operation, low maintenance, and high reliability.
Do Rittal thermoelectric coolers require maintenance?
Minimal maintenance is required since thermoelectric coolers have no compressors or refrigerants and very few moving parts.
Do Rittal thermoelectric coolers maintain NEMA and IP ratings?
Yes, when properly installed, Rittal thermoelectric coolers are designed to maintain the enclosure’s original NEMA and IP protection ratings.
Are Rittal thermoelectric coolers suitable for industrial and outdoor use?
Yes, Rittal thermoelectric coolers are suitable for industrial and many outdoor applications where consistent, low-maintenance enclosure cooling is required.
