Vortex Coolers from ITW Vortec keep electrical cabinets and control panels cool, clean and protected. An affordable, maintenance-free alternative to air conditioners, the easy-to-install Coolers have no moving parts to wear out. Vortex Coolers incorporate vortex tube technology that uses filtered compressed air to produce a refrigerated air stream distributed throughout the enclosure. Unlike fans that pull in hot, dirty air, the enclosure Coolers maintain a light positive pressure inside the cabinet to effectively seal out the surrounding contamination, heat and humidity that can wreak havoc on sensitive electronic controls. Refrigerated air produced by the vortex tube enters the cabinet while hot air is expelled through a relief valve. Models are available to deliver up to 5000 BTUH of refrigeration. The UL-listed enclosure cooler systems are thermostatically controlled and are available in NEMA 12, 4 and 4X rated models.
