Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a Powersafe TMC-500W thermal
management system. These units offer unsurpassed protection
against component over-temperature failure. The unit has been built
tough for indoor and outdoor use on a range of switchboard
enclosures.
If a switchboard generates too much thermal energy the operation of
circuit protection devices is adversely affected, creating a potential
safety risk. The TMC-500W has been proven to dissipate 500W of
heat losses at 20K (difference between internal and external
temperature, tested at 400C ambient) generated by internal
switchboard components. Many switchboard components need to be
de-rated in an environment above 400C or below 00C. Refer to
component manufacturer's specification for applicable
characteristics. Powersafe thermal management systems also
incorporate a heater for humidity and low-temperature control.
Powersafe thermal management systems have been designed
specifically with safety in mind ensuring no exposed conductive parts
and utilizing Extra-low voltage (ELV) fans. The TMC-500W has been
thoroughly tested in harsh working environments to measure
performance. The device must be installed and operated as per the
instructions in this manual.
It is the user's responsibility to ensure that the TMC-500W is used
and installed as per any Australian standards, local authority
requirements and all other standards or requirements to satisfy the
conditions of the location and functionality of the unit and its use.
Please refer to the standards that the TMC-500W has been designed
and manufactured to comply with and to ensure that it is
appropriate for its intended use.
Powersafe Thermal Management Systems are the industry leading solution for switchboard thermal
performance and safety
