<p>An outdoor equipment cabinet enclosure (10) designed to dissipate heat generated by electrical components housed therein including an upper chamber (20) for housing the components and a lower chamber (22) configured to store banks of batteries (24) for a stand-by power supply system. A lower wall (18) separates the batteries from the electronic components. A heat exchanger (30) is disposed in the upper chamber (20) and includes intake and exhaust ports (36, 38) for creating a circulating air flow path through outer columns (34) of the heat exchanger (30) for interior air within the upper chamber (20). An air flow passageway (44) is defined by the lower wall (18) and the upper surfaces of the batteries. A pair of diverters (56) located in the outside air flow passageway deflect the outside air flowing across the upper surfaces of the batteries through spaces between the batteries. A pair of opposed baffles (60) help direct the outside air flow to an inner column (32) of the heat exchanger and also include portions (62) serving to locate and retain the batteries.</p> |
