average number of inputs on at one time (W)
Where, lin
=
input current (effective value for AC) (A)
E
=

Power consumption of the special function unit power supply
is expressed as:

Further calculations are necessary to work out the power dissi-
pated by the other equipment in the panel.
Generally temperature rise in the panel is expressed
as:

where,
W
=
power consumption of the entire PC system (obtained
as
above)

if the panel temperature is controlled by a fan, etc.
4
if panel air is not circulated.
POINT
I
Fans, heat exchangers
or
cooling units must be installed if
the panel temperature
is
likely to exceed
55’C.
Fans should
be
fied
with suitable filters and guards.
