Abstract:
There is disclosed an enclosure and cooling system for electronic equipment that provides forced-air cooling of multiple compartmentalized electronics assemblies while simultaneously isolating the electronics assemblies from the ambient environment, keeping the electronics assemblies free from contamination due to harmful dust, dirt, water, corrosives, and other airborne foreign matter. Embodiments include an air-conduction cooled environmentally-sealed electronics enclosure having at least first and second environmentally-sealed electronics compartments, each containing a respective electronic assembly. A common-air cooling channel containing a fin core is disposed between the first and the second electronics compartments, such that ambient air drawn from an air intake, through the common channel, and out an air exhaust removes heat generated by the electronic assemblies within the sealed compartments to an exterior of the enclosure. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Claim (Index 16):
A method of cooling an electronics enclosure, comprising:\n forming an environmentally-isolated common air-cooling channel through an interior of the electronics enclosure, the environmentally-isolated common air-cooling channel having an ambient air intake and an air exhaust and housing a fin core; sealing a first electronic assembly within a first electronics compartment on a first side of the environmentally-isolated common air-cooling channel, the first electronics compartment in thermal contact with the fin core; sealing a second electronic assembly within a second electronics compartment on a second side of the environmentally-isolated common air-cooling channel, the second electronics compartment in thermal contact with the fin core; disposing an air mover at the air exhaust; disposing an air filter between the ambient air intake and the environmentally-isolated common air-cooling channel; and moving a filtered airflow through the environmentally-isolated common air-cooling channel from the air intake, through the air filter, and to the air exhaust, thereby simultaneously removing heat generated within the first and the second electronics compartments to an exterior of the electronics enclosure and protecting the first electronic assembly, the second electronic assembly, and the fin core from contaminant exposure.
