I installed a VFD last week for a 20HP submersible pump last week outdoors on a pole next to the pump. I went back and forth with my supplier about making sure we had an enclosure large enough that heat wouldn't be an issue and asked for case fans. The sales rep for the VFD recommended a 20x20x8 enclosure with a pair of 6" louvers and said we wouldn't have any issues. Now it's shutting down throwing an overheat alarm.
Supplier went back to the sales rep, and they are suggesting another pair of louvers to cut in, and are offering 4" 120v case fans for $320/ea. That's seems really high. I've already got $400 in the enclosure; add the louvers and two of their fans and it'll end up costing $1100.
You guys have any other leads on case fans that aren't as expensive ? I did a google search before leaving the office yesterday and found some that were pretty cheap but were made for PC cases.
