BS EN 62610-5:2016

What is BS EN 62610-5 - Cooling performance about?  

BS EN 62610-5 is the fifth part of an international standard used for mechanical structures for electrical and electronic equipment. This BS EN 62610-5 is useful in evaluating the cooling performance of these indoor cabinets.  

BS EN 62610-5 specifies a method for evaluating the cooling capacity mainly for air convection cooling of empty cabinets in accordance with the IEC 60297 and IEC 60917 series. 

Who is BS EN 62610-5 - Cooling performance for? 

BS EN 62610-5 on Mechanical structures for electrical and electronic equipment is useful for: 

• Manufacturers of electronic devices 
• Information technology companies 
• Electronic engineers 
• Manufacturers of electrical cabinets 

Why should you use BS EN 62610-5 - Cooling performance?  

Thermal management devices are useful in maintaining the optimum temperature inside an electric cabinet.  

By using BS EN 62610-5 you can classify the cooling methods for indoor cabinets. By calculating air cooling parameters, you can evaluate the cooling performance of these indoor electrical cabinets. This results in cooling these indoor cabinets when the temperature rises beyond its limit.  

Using BS EN 62610-5 you can ensure the sustainability of these cabinets in different climatic conditions. These guidelines also help in manufacturing good quality indoor cabinets.
