Why Choose the Rittal SK3286.970 Air Duct System?

The Rittal SK3286.970 is an industrial air duct system for compatible Rittal cooling units, designed for use with the SK 3386 and SK 3387 cooling unit ranges. It provides targeted routing of cold air inside electrical enclosures, helping ensure cooled air reaches specific areas where heat-generating components are installed.

By directing the cold airflow from the cooling unit through the enclosure, the air duct system can help prevent temperature differences and reduce the likelihood of thermal hotspots around sensitive electrical and electronic equipment. Individual air outlets can be positioned as required, making the system particularly useful in densely populated control cabinets where unrestricted airflow may not provide adequate cooling to every component.

The SK3286.970 measures 229 mm wide × 1500 mm high × 29 mm deep and is designed as a dedicated accessory for compatible Rittal enclosure climate control installations. Its modular arrangement provides a practical method of improving internal air distribution without requiring additional active cooling equipment.

Key Advantages

  • Purpose-designed air duct system for Rittal cooling units.
  • Suitable for compatible Rittal SK 3386 and SK 3387 cooling unit ranges.
  • Directs cooled air towards specific areas within an electrical enclosure.
  • Helps minimise thermal hotspots and temperature differences inside control cabinets.
  • Supports efficient cooling of densely installed electrical and electronic components.
  • Passive air distribution solution requiring no additional powered fan system.
  • Designed for straightforward integration with compatible Rittal climate control equipment.

Key Features

  • Rittal SK climate control accessory.
  • Air duct system for targeted cold-air distribution.
  • 1500 mm overall height for routing air through larger enclosure installations.
  • 229 mm width.
  • 29 mm depth.
  • Compatible with Rittal SK 3386 and SK 3387 cooling units.
  • Supports targeted cooling of heat-generating enclosure components.
  • Helps optimise circulation and distribution of conditioned enclosure air.

Targeted Air Distribution for Enclosure Climate Control

Effective enclosure cooling depends not only on removing heat but also on distributing conditioned air to the components that require it. An air duct system allows cold air from the cooling unit to be channelled through the cabinet rather than relying solely on unrestricted internal circulation.

The Rittal SK3286.970 is particularly useful where high heat loads are concentrated in defined areas or where densely installed components can obstruct natural airflow. Directing cooling air towards these locations can support more consistent operating temperatures and help maintain reliable conditions for drives, controllers, power electronics and other temperature-sensitive equipment.

Typical Applications

  • Rittal SK 3386 series cooling unit installations.
  • Rittal SK 3387 series cooling unit installations.
  • Industrial electrical and automation control cabinets.
  • Enclosures containing variable frequency drives and power electronics.
  • PLC, control and communication equipment installations.
  • Machine control panels with concentrated internal heat loads.
  • Enclosures requiring targeted distribution of cooled air.
