Efficient Thermal Planning for Electrical Enclosures
When it comes to enclosure design, climate control is not a detail to be added later; it’s a vital part of performance, protection, and system longevity. Rittal’s RiTherm software makes thermal management easier than ever by delivering fast, intuitive enclosure climate control planning based on real-world parameters.
Whether you're specifying for a new build or retrofitting an existing enclosure, RiTherm helps you calculate thermal loads and cooling requirements quickly and accurately.
Why Use RiTherm?
RiTherm allows you to determine the required cooling output for your enclosure based on:
The software then provides suggestions for suitable Rittal climate control solutions such as cooling units, heat exchangers, or fan-and-filter systems. This helps ensure correct sizing from the outset, reducing the risk of under- or over-specifying equipment.
Key Benefits
Now Even More Intuitive
RiTherm has recently been enhanced with an improved user interface and streamlined functions. Users can now generate tailored thermal analyses and receive product suggestions even more quickly. The improved usability ensures that specifiers and engineers can confidently make informed decisions for every application.
Support That Scales with You
Whether you're working on a single control cabinet or a fully bayed enclosure system, RiTherm adapts to your project requirements. From basic fan-assisted ventilation to fully integrated Blue e+ cooling systems, RiTherm helps you identify the best solution for performance, energy efficiency, and compliance.
