Where HIX055B Fits
Best applications for this model
HIX055B is sized for cabinets where the internal heat load is in the range that 55 W/°F can move at your available temperature differential. As a quick rule of thumb, multiply 55 by your ambient-to-target ΔT to get the maximum heat load (in watts) this unit can handle. For example, at a 20°F ΔT this model removes 1100W; at a 30°F ΔT, 1650W.
Watch: Cross Flow vs. Counter Flow
