POWER SYSTEMS AND ENCLOSURES HAVING IMPROVED COOLING AIR FLOW

Abstract:

Power systems and enclosures having improved cooling air flow are disclosed. In some examples, a power system includes an enclosure, a first air inlet, a first air routing path, and a second air routing path. The first air inlet is at a first location on an exterior of the enclosure to permit intake of air from the exterior of the enclosure to an interior of the enclosure. The first air routing path is defined by the enclosure and directs air from the first air inlet through a welding-type power supply and a compressor. The second air routing path is separate from the first air routing path and defined by the enclosure. The second air routing path directs the air from the first air inlet or a second air inlet through at least one of an engine or a generator.
