Abstract
An outdoor equipment cabinet enclosure designed to effectively dissipate heat generated by electrical equipment components housed therein includes a main interior section for housing active electronic components and a lower section configured to store banks of batteries for a stand-by power supply system with a lower wall separating the batteries from the electronic components in the main interior section. At least one heat exchanger is disposed in the main interior section and includes an inlet port and means for creating a circulating air flow path for interior air within the main interior section. An outdoor air flow path is defined by the lower wall and the upper surfaces of the batteries and at least one baffle is disposed within the outdoor air flow path which is configured to deflect outdoor air flowing across the upper surfaces of the batteries into the at least one heat exchanger. The at least one baffle is disposed at an acute angle to the upper surfaces of the batteries from a point adjacent inwardly disposed sides of the batteries.
