5.1 Heat Radiation Countermeasures
Please refer to the following method for heat radiation countermeasures.
Example of heat radiation countermeasures
Hypothetical conditions
Average internal temperature of operation panel: T ≤ 58 °C
Peripheral temperature of operation panel: Ta ≤ 0 °C to 45 °C
Internal temperature rise value: ΔT = T - Ta (max) = 13 °C

°C can be applied only when the operation panel is so small that the internal temperature stays uniform.
Points of caution for heat radiation countermeasures when designing mounting state
- Consider convection in operation panel (eliminate heat spots)
- Collect hot air at suction port of heat exchanger in operation panel
Criterion for internal temperature rise distribution data
ΔT (average) ≦ 13 °C
ΔTmax (maximum value) ≤ 15 °C
R (inconsistent ΔTmax - ΔTmin) ≤ 6 °C
