Examples for Determining the Type of Cabinet
The following example shows the maximum permissible ambient
temperature with various cabinet types and the same power dissipation.
Example
The following equipment configuration is given:

From Figure 3-16, with a total power dissipation of 900 W, the maximum
ambient temperatures given by the table are as follows:
Cabinet Design
Closed, with natural convection and forced
circulation (Curve 3)
Open with through-ventilation (Curve 2)
Closed, with heat exchanger (Curve 1)
