Why Choose the Rittal SK 3286.870 Air Duct System?
The Rittal SK 3286.870 is a purpose-designed air duct system for roof-mounted cooling units and roof-mounted air/water heat exchangers, allowing cold air to be routed directly to specific areas within an electrical enclosure. As part of the Rittal SK climate control accessory range, it helps optimise internal airflow and reduce the risk of unwanted air circulation paths around installed equipment.
By directing conditioned air towards selected areas of the enclosure, the SK 3286.870 helps prevent air short circuits caused by self-ventilated installed devices. This provides greater flexibility when designing enclosure climate control systems, particularly where components with different cooling requirements are installed within the same cabinet.
The supplied shallow duct measures 229 mm wide × 1500 mm high × 29 mm deep and can be shortened to the required length for the installation. Manufactured from flame-resistant plastic to DIN 4102/B1 and finished in RAL 7035, the system is compatible with selected Rittal 3209, 3210, 3273, 3359, 3382, 3383, 3384 and 3385 climate control units.

Targeted Air Routing for Enclosure Cooling
Effective airflow management is an important part of industrial enclosure climate control. Self-ventilated components can create unwanted circulation paths that allow conditioned air to return to the cooling unit without adequately reaching other areas of the enclosure. The Rittal SK 3286.870 allows cold air to be directed towards selected zones, helping reduce these air short circuits.
The shallow duct can be shortened to match the enclosure configuration, providing flexibility for different component layouts. Cold air should not be directed straight at active components, and the use of an air duct system may reduce cooling unit performance depending on the specific application and installation.
Typical Applications
- Rittal roof-mounted cooling units.
- Rittal roof-mounted air/water heat exchangers.
- Industrial electrical control cabinets.
- Automation and machine control enclosures.
- Enclosures containing self-ventilated electrical equipment.
- Applications requiring targeted distribution of conditioned air.
