Electrical Enclosure Heater Calculator
The graph can be read to determine expected temperature rise.
Electrical enclosure heater calculator. You can use this calculator to find the wattage you need. 46 31 420530 asia pacific. Saginaw control and engineering. The wattage of the heater you need is determined by the total surface area of your enclosure and the temperature rise you need to produce.
86 755 2714 1166 americas. This calculator has a maximum temperature rise of 140 f or 78 c step 1. Choose from a wide range of capacities power inputs mounting options sizes and type ratings. To use this calculator appropriately one must first quantify the amount of heat generated by components inside.
Once total heat is calculated the calculator can be used to determine expected temperature rise based on the control panel size and type of enclosure. For example if you know the power generated inside the unit assume 10 of the energy is dissipated as heat. Find your enclosure s total surface area by entering its dimensions here. Determine the heat generated inside the enclosure.
