AC options & cooling performance
Outdoor cooling unit comparison
| Model | Cooling capacity (L35/L35) | Power absorbed (L35/L35) | H × W × D | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| UP-AC-500 | 500 W | 312 W | 665 × 320 × 200 mm | 19 kg |
| UP-AC-1000 | 1000 W | 530 W | 750 × 350 × 230 mm | 35 kg |
| UP-AC-1700 | 1700 W | 740 W | 955 × 400 × 255 mm | 40 kg |
Catalogue values at L35/L35: internal and external air at 35 °C. Cooling capacity is heat removed, not electrical consumption. The listed ambient operating range is −20 to +55 °C; this does not mean the rated cooling output is available at +55 °C. Confirm capacity at the design ambient and target internal temperature before selecting a unit. The cooler protection rating and the cabinet rating are separate; confirm the achieved protection of the complete installed assembly.
Choose the enclosure and installation format
This page describes the 600 × 600 mm cabinet with a floor-standing plinth. Wall and pole installations, single- or double-wall construction, cooler cut-outs and door loads must be checked against the selected cabinet configuration.
| Product route | When to review it | Configuration to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Outdoor telecom cabinet with AC | For exposed telecom sites needing active cooling | Cabinet size, cooler mounting, sealing and service clearance |
| Guard Box outdoor cabinet | For wall or floor installation; pole accessories specified separately | Single/double layer, mounting hardware, cooling cut-out and achieved IP rating |
| IP55 industrial enclosure (English) | For dusty or damp factory installations | Equipment depth, heat load, cabinet sealing and cooler compatibility |

Cooling selection depends on equipment heat dissipation, solar gain, and peak ambient temperature. Below is a typical outdoor cooling unit performance example (UP-AC-500, 450W). See the AC options PDF for other capacities.
| Cooling unit (example) | Value |
|---|---|
| Cooling capacity | 500 W |
| Refrigerant / charge | R134a / 290 g |
| Power absorbed | 312 W (230 V, 50/60 Hz) |
| Running / starting current | 1.6 A / 2.3 A |
| External / internal airflow | 540 m³/h / 290 m³/h |
| Setpoint range / hysteresis | 15–35 °C / 4 °C |
| Protection / ambient | IP55 / IP65; -20 °C to +55 °C |
| Dimensions / weight | 665×320×200 mm / 19 kg |
| Compressor / fans | Danfoss-Secop / EbmPapst |

Heat load calculator
Use the heat-load calculator to estimate required cooling capacity based on device dissipation, solar gain, and safety margin. Output includes W and BTU/h (W × 3.412).
Calculation logic
- Equipment heat (W) = Sum of (Qty × Power × Utilization% × Heat fraction)
- Solar gain (W) = Irradiance × Surface area × Exposure factors
- Subtotal (W) = Equipment heat + Solar gain
- Safety margin = Subtotal × 15–25%
- Total cooling (W) = Subtotal + Safety margin
- Total cooling (BTU/h) = Total cooling (W) × 3.412
How to deploy an outdoor telecom cabinet with AC
- Site preparation: choose shaded location where possible; ensure drainage and safe access.
- Mounting: install the 100 mm plinth on level surface and fix the cabinet.
- Grounding: connect cabinet earthing/bonding according to site standard.
- Cable entry & sealing: route cables from bottom entry; use glands and seals.
- Equipment install: mount devices on 19" rails using U-markings; keep airflow paths clear.
- Cooling setup: confirm heat load, set thermostat target, verify fan/AC operation.
- Commissioning: verify door sealing, lock function, temperature stability under peak load.
FAQ
Is IP66 suitable for heavy rain and dust?
Yes. IP66 provides complete dust protection and protection against powerful water jets. For flood-prone areas, plan elevated mounting and cable entry carefully.
How do I size AC capacity?
Use equipment heat (W) + solar gain (W) + 15–25% margin. Select an AC unit that can reject the total load at local peak ambient temperature.
Can I add a fan module later?
Yes. Modular top/service access supports fan or AC upgrades depending on the project configuration.
