Why Choose the Rittal SK3478.800 Blue e+ S Wall-Mounted Cooling Unit?
The Rittal SK3478.800 is a compact Blue e+ S wall-mounted enclosure cooling unit engineered for energy-efficient thermal management of industrial electrical and automation enclosures. Delivering 0.3 kW cooling output, it combines Rittal's proven Blue e+ technology with a slim design measuring just 159 mm deep, making it particularly suitable where installation space is limited.
Blue e+ S technology combines intelligent cooling with smart monitoring capabilities to help reduce energy consumption and the carbon footprint of machinery and systems. Multi-voltage operation from 110–240 V AC, single-phase, 50/60 Hz supports international machine-building applications, while compatibility with Rittal's IoT interface enables remote monitoring of operating data, status information and system messages.
The SK3478.800 uses the low-GWP R-1234yf refrigerant and incorporates integral electric condensate evaporation. With a robust sheet steel housing, IP55 protection for the internal circuit, an e+ controller and compact dimensions of 300 × 570 × 159 mm, it provides a modern cooling solution for control cabinets containing PLCs, power supplies, drives and other temperature-sensitive electronics.

Energy-Efficient Cooling for Compact Industrial Enclosures
Modern PLCs, power supplies, industrial computers and other electronic devices can generate significant heat even when installed in relatively compact control cabinets. The Rittal SK3478.800 combines active refrigeration with Blue e+ technology to remove this unwanted heat while maintaining a closed internal air circuit, helping protect sensitive equipment from excessive temperatures and contaminated ambient air.
Its wide multi-voltage input, compact footprint and smart connectivity make the SK3478.800 particularly suitable for internationally deployed machinery and automation systems. Optional connection to the Rittal IoT interface allows device data, operating statuses and system messages to be monitored remotely, helping improve machine availability and simplify preventative maintenance.
