efficient operation of electronic equipment and for
the comfort of operating personnel within the en-
closure. It is a completely self-contained, air-
cooled, electric motor-driven unit designed for
continuous operation with varying loads. It is
equipped with internal ducting, such that filtered
air from a chemical and biological filter unit may
be ducted to the evaporator fan and coil.

located at the bottom of the unit, contains the
hermetically sealed compressor, pressure relief
valve, check valve, condensing coil, condenser air
intake opening, condenser air discharge opening,
control panel, junction box, thermostat, power re-
ceptacle, RFI filter, condenser fan, dehydrator,
and compressor solenoid valve.
c. Evaporator Section. The evaporator section,
located at the top of the unit, contains an evapo-
