Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/234472
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Junction Box is used in all industries (oil and gas, power FIGts, petrochemicals, aerospace and marine industries, etc.), which protects the electrical equipment and connections against environmental pollutants. It prevents the leakage of damages occurred to the electrical equipment to the outside and avoids the collision of sparks or flames and possible burning out of the equipment with the air outside the box to prevent explosion and fire. This system is designed to cool the junction box, in which, the thermoelectric technology is used for cooling process associated with all kinds of liquid radiators, air cooling radiators, or both, fluids pump and a variety cable glands specific to the junction box for connections, and special or conventional thermometers for the junction box or both, along with special or conventional fans or both by 11 different methods.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF INVENTION

This system involves equipping the junction box with a cooling system and preventing the temperature rise

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Junction Box is used in all industries (oil and gas, power FIGts, petrochemicals, aerospace and marine industries, etc.), which protects the electrical equipment and connections against environmental pollutants. It prevents the leakage of damages occurred to the electrical equipment to the outside and avoids the collision of sparks or flames and possible burning out of the equipment with the air outside the box to prevent explosion and fire. Due to the environmental conditions and the functioning, most of the equipment inside the box has a high temperature. Lowering the temperature will significantly improve the performance of the box. The operating and lifetime of the equipment increases as the temperature drops, which reduces the chance of equipment inside the box to get hot and bum and cause a fire.
