Mechanical structures for electronic equipment. Thermal management for cabinets in accordance with IEC 60297 and IEC 60917 series. Design guide. Method for the determination of forced air-cooling structure | Status: Current

1 Scope and object This part of IEC 62610 provides for compatible methods of forced air cooled cabinets assembled with associated subracks and/or chassis in accordance with the IEC 60297 and IEC 60917 series. This design guide contains the following:

1. a) Thermal interfaces of subrack and/or chassis based equipment in a cabinet
   • • Reference temperature
   • • Preferred airflow conditions
   • • Airflow volume conditions
   • • Standard air
2. b) Procedures for determining compatible forced airflow conditions in a cabinet by applying typical thermal interface conditions

The drawings used are not intended to indicate product design. They are only explanatory indications for determining forced air-cooling structure. The terminology used complies with IEC 60917‑1.
