Thermal management system (TMS)
TMS overview
The equipment installed in the cabinet emits heat, which must be removed in
order to maintain the correct working temperature.
The thermal management system (TMS) unit maintains the cabinet internal
temperature within the operational range of the installed equipment, provided
the external ambient temperature is within the range of –40 °C to +50 °C.
An alarm is generated if the return air temperature from the BTS enclosures
exceeds 68 °C.
The TMS unit contains:
Two recuperators.
Two ambient air fans (external fans).
Two recirculation air fans (internal fans).
Two ac electric heater elements.
One TMS control board.
Two temperature sensors.
