In most industrial environments, a properly applied enclosure air conditioner can last 15 years or longer. Like all mechanical devices however it will eventual need replacement. Once the existing air conditioner has reached its end-of-life cycle (or has been damaged), typically maintenance technicians or the end user prefer to replace the unit with an identical model as the original air conditioner. In many cases the unit is still available; this makes the replacement process fairly easy, as cutouts and bolt patterns remain the same. However, what happens when an exact replacement is not available?

Kiosks typically contain sensitive electronics that include CPUs, printers and LCD touch-screens. In most applications, when a kiosk is located indoors, auxiliary cooling is not required. The small amount of heat produced inside a typical kiosk is dissipated by convection. However, if the conditions yield slightly elevated temperatures near the upper limits of acceptability, the addition of an air moving device, such as a fan, is an inexpensive method for dissipating the heat.
