In just four steps you can determine the heating performance required for your application.
Anti condensation heater calculation.
Please check if your entries are correct and re enter if necessary.
The blue lines in the graph represent different temperature elevation.
Anti condensation heaters also called cabinet heater or enclosure heater is used to protect cabinets and electrical panels against condensation due to temperature variations.
In addition to the ambient temperature you can also add humidity values into this calculation depending on whether a minimum temperature has to be maintained or if a specific humidity level must not be exceeded.
And condensation for outdoor applications double the heating power requirement.
This calculator has a maximum temperature rise of 140 f or 78 c step 1.
Calculation of anti condensation power all electrical cabinets emit certain amount of heat to the surroundings through the surface.
Find your enclosure s total surface area by entering its dimensions here.
The wattage of the heater you need is determined by the total surface area of your enclosure and the temperature rise you need to produce.
Also you can calculate the approximate wattage required by using the equation w 2dl where w is the heat in watts d is the outside diameter of the stator laminations in inches and l is the length of the stator core in inches.
These are directly proportional to the resistance s of the wall s components to heat flow and moisture vapor flow and air leaks.
The required heating performance can also be reached with a combination of heaters and or fan heaters.

Which electric heater would most efficiently maintain a 60 f temperature in an uninsulated 24x24x10 enclosure that is exposed to a temperature not less than 30 f.
Anti condensation heaters our products are used in all places where sensitive electronic components must be protected from humidity and other climatic influences.
Ideal for external cabinets and electrical enclosures anti condensation heaters are useful when ambient temperature is low and equipment inside cabinet fails to dissipate heat and doesn.
You can use this calculator to find the wattage you need.
Required heating power of thermal management products.
So the required anti condensation power is proportional to the effective surface area of the enclosure.
Heating elements regulators fans and our accessories help you to optimize operating conditions and to reach maximum protection for your installations.
