Operational Temperature Range - where to worry?
Posted: Wed Jun 24, 2020 3:50 pm
I have a WS-12-250-DC unit operating inside an enclosure on the roof of a building, the enclosure is in direct sunlight most of the day.
The unit is currently showing:
At what thermal levels should I be worried about the unit? My only worry at the moment is that we're not anywhere near our peak ambient temperatures for the summer, and the fan is running at around 90% of its RPM range.
Ambient today is 89F/31C but during the peak of our heat it can be as much as 105F/40C during the hottest part of the summer.
The enclosure does have a temp controlled fan connected to the battery bank, but I don't have a way to monitor its' status.
