Why Choose the Rittal Blue e+ S SK3184.840 Wall-Mounted Cooling Unit?

The Rittal Blue e+ S SK3184.840 is a high-efficiency wall-mounted enclosure cooling unit designed to provide reliable thermal management for industrial electrical and electronic enclosures. Part of the advanced Rittal Blue e+ S series, it combines energy-efficient climate control technology with intelligent monitoring capabilities and R-513A refrigerant for modern machinery and automation applications.

With a cooling output of up to 1,000 W, the SK3184.840 is designed to dissipate heat generated by drives, PLCs, power supplies and other electronic components while maintaining a controlled enclosure environment. Separate internal and external air circuits prevent direct exchange of enclosure and ambient air, helping protect sensitive equipment from contamination while providing effective heat removal.

Designed for industrial power systems, the SK3184.840 operates from a 380–480 V AC, two-phase, 50/60 Hz supply. Its compact 300 × 570 × 159 mm construction provides substantial cooling performance with a shallow installation depth, making it particularly suitable for modern control cabinets and machinery where installation space is limited.

Key Advantages

  • High-efficiency Blue e+ S enclosure cooling technology for industrial applications.
  • 1,000 W cooling capacity for effective control cabinet thermal management.
  • 380–480 V AC, two-phase supply suitable for industrial electrical systems.
  • Uses R-513A refrigerant for reduced environmental impact compared with many conventional refrigerants.
  • Hybrid cooling technology combines active refrigerant cooling with heat pipe operation.
  • Integrated e+ controller supports precise temperature regulation and diagnostic functions.
  • Compact wall-mounted construction with a depth of only 159 mm.
  • Optional IoT connectivity enables integration into intelligent monitoring and maintenance systems.

Key Features

  • Rittal Blue e+ S wall-mounted cooling unit.
  • 1,000 W rated cooling capacity.
  • 380–480 V AC, two-phase, 50/60 Hz operation.
  • R-513A refrigerant for efficient vapour-compression cooling.
  • Hybrid heat pipe and active refrigerant circuit technology.
  • Separated internal and external air circuits.
  • Integrated e+ temperature controller.
  • Intelligent operating and diagnostic functionality.
  • Optional connectivity through the Rittal Blue e+ IoT interface.
  • Compact 300 × 570 × 159 mm wall-mounted format.

Efficient Climate Control for Industrial Enclosures

Industrial enclosure cooling units such as the Rittal Blue e+ S SK3184.840 remove heat generated by electrical and electronic equipment while maintaining a controlled environment inside the enclosure. The separated internal and external air circuits allow heat to be transferred to the surrounding environment without introducing unfiltered ambient air directly into the cabinet.

Blue e+ technology combines passive heat pipe operation with an active refrigerant circuit, allowing the cooling unit to adapt its operation according to thermal demand and ambient conditions. This approach helps reduce energy consumption while maintaining dependable temperature control for sensitive automation and power electronics.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial electrical control cabinets.
  • PLC and automation enclosures.
  • Variable speed drive and motor control cabinets.
  • Machine tools and production machinery.
  • Power electronics and distribution enclosures.
  • Manufacturing and process automation systems.
  • OEM machinery requiring integrated enclosure climate control.
