Abstract
The presently disclosed embodiments are directed to an improved mechanical arrangement of a drawout power module system that prevents outside contaminants from being deposited on the electronic components in the power module. A need exists for an improved mechanical arrangement of a power module and cabinet that would prevent the contaminants from outside of the cabinet from being deposited on the electronic components in the power module. To that end, the outdoor drive may include a cabinet with an air intake and an air outlet located on said cabinet and in fluid communication with an interior space of said cabinet, wherein said cabinet is configured to receive a power module within said interior space. The power module may include an environmentally sealable chamber where outside air can enter and exit only said environmentally sealable chamber of said power module.
