Why Choose the Rittal Blue e+ S SK3178.801 Wall-Mounted Cooling Unit?
The Rittal Blue e+ S SK3178.801 is a compact and highly energy-efficient 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 proven Blue e+ technology with multi-voltage capability, intelligent monitoring options and environmentally considerate R-513A refrigerant.
The SK3178.801 provides a total cooling output of 0.3 kW at L35/L35, helping maintain suitable operating temperatures for PLCs, drives, power supplies and other heat-sensitive components. Separate internal and external air circuits enable efficient heat removal without introducing ambient air directly into the enclosure, while the integrated e+ controller provides precise temperature regulation.
Operating from a flexible 110–240 V AC single-phase, 50/60 Hz supply, the SK3178.801 is suitable for machinery intended for international markets. This version is supplied without an integrated condensate evaporator and features a compact 300 × 570 × 159 mm wall-mounted design for installations where enclosure space and installation depth are important considerations.
