For enclosure systems, which operate in extremely cold environments Rittal is now able to offer 800W and 1kW heaters. Available off-the-shelf, the units have the ability to operate in severe conditions down to -33degC. Weighing only 2.3kg and measuring 325 x 85 x 225mm the 1kW heater is discreet, yet provides the necessary power required. The 800W unit has a smaller space requirement of only 150 x 82 x 110mm. Both systems have a range of approvals including CE, CUL, and UL.
Originally conceived for outdoor telecommunication applications the heating systems were designed for large enclosures, but their success and reliability in smaller applications, involving both the prevention of cold temperatures and high humidity within smaller enclosures, has proved successful.
Available with a natural aluminium finish and connecting cable with wire end ferrules, the systems are compatible with Rittal hygrostats and thermostats for the prevention of damage caused by condensation and extreme conditions.
