Abstract
Outdoor, electronic component containing cabinets are cooled by forced circulation of outside air through the cabinet for direct, cooling contact with the components. The incoming air is filtered, heated as necessary to evaporate water droplets in the air prior to entry of the air into the component containing portions of the cabinet, and the air flow is regulated for slowing the flow rate of the air within the cabinet as is necessary for maintaining the relative humidity within the cabinet below a maximum percentage; typically 40%.
