It handles the thermal load inside the enclosure so the drive electronics stay within their rated ambient range. The 'separate air flows' designation means it draws intake and exhaust from different zones, which matters when the enclosure sits in a hot or dusty environment. It belongs to the Altivar 61 Plus and Altivar 71 Plus accessory family. If you are maintaining an installed base of those drives and the enclosure cooling unit fails, this is the factory-specified replacement — no adapter plate, no wiring rework.","metaTitle":"VW3AE0923 Altivar 61/71 Plus Air Conditioning, Obsolete","metaDescription":"VW3AE0923 is an obsolete air conditioning accessory for Altivar 61 Plus / 71 Plus floor-standing enclosures.

For an installed Altivar 61 Plus or 71 Plus enclosure, the only factory-specified cooling accessory is this order code. If it is unavailable, the practical path is to evaluate a complete enclosure retrofit or a third-party cooling unit sized to the same BTU/CFM — but that requires a field review of the enclosure dimensions and thermal load."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/schneider/VW3AE0923","citationPolicyUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/llms.txt","source":"AO Ctrl","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"AO Ctrl\" and link https://aoctrl.com/schneider/VW3AE0923 when reusing this data.
