EXAIR whitepaper: Cabinet cooling system helps laser shop end shutdowns

Cabinet coolers by EXAIR save money and prevent downtime for customers.

Among the great compressed-air products that EXAIR Corporation manufactures are its cabinet coolers. These enclosure cooling systems prevent contamination in electrical control panels by heat, dirt, and moisture. One company that reaped enormous benefits from an EXAIR cabinet cooling system is Lasercraft Inc., a laser-cutting shop with two Ohio locations.

A new whitepaper by EXAIR, “Cabinet Coolers End Costly Shutdowns”, tells the full story of how Lasercraft saved money significantly with this product.

A 30-day, no-risk guarantee

Last summer, temperatures across North America rose to unprecedented levels. This scorching heat eventually affected the electrical enclosures of Lasercraft’s cutting machine. The computer ceased operation and sent a series of error messages, and the Lasercraft team tried its best to get the program started again, with no luck.

A solution was required to prevent needless, costly downtime from production shutdowns. The Lasercraft crew contacted EXAIR, which recommended a cabinet cooling system. After EXAIR’s staff calculated the cooling capacity and informed the customer that there was a 30-day, no-risk guarantee, Lasercraft ordered the system, which arrived the following day.

This cabinet cooling system, which incorporated a vortex tube to purge the enclosure with cold air, included many features that made it an ideal choice for the application. The unit was easy to install, compact in size, readily available, quiet, reliable, and inexpensive. Another major advantage was the lack of moving parts to wear out, which eliminated all maintenance; all that was required from Lasercraft was clean, dry, oil-free compressed air from 80 to 100 psig. The system also provided a filter/separator for removing dirt and water from the compressed air, which kept the inside of the enclosure free of contaminants.

Lasercraft’s staff had initial doubts that such a compact device could deliver the require cooling, but after installing it, they were pleasantly surprised. This EXAIR cabinet cooler met the customer’s needs with the perfect solution to beat the heat. Since then, the system has turned out to be a good insurance policy against summer heat conditions, saving the company plenty of money.

This summer, why not count on an EXAIR cabinet cooler system?
