7.3.2.4 Cooling air requirements of liquid-cooled S120 Cabinet Modules
Most of the heat losses generated by liquid-cooled S120 Cabinet Modules are dissipated by the coolant.
Nevertheless, a specific volume of cooling air must be supplied depending on the degree of protection of the liquid-
cooled S120 Cabinet Modules. This volume of cooling air must always be supplied, even under challenging boundary
conditions.
With degrees of protection IP21 to IP43, cooling air is sucked in through ventilation openings near the bottom of the
cabinet doors. The heated air is expelled out forwards through ventilation openings by fans mounted near the top of
the doors. The roof panel is closed.
A cabinet with degree of protection IP55 is completely enclosed so that it does not need an external air supply.
However, the air inside the cabinet is circulated by fans and cooled by air-to-water heat exchangers installed in the
cabinet.
