The Cell Phone Tower Machine Room Advanced Temperature Control Unit project requires a way to simulate a full-blown air conditioning system. This is obviously not possible in my home office setting – although Ron, my boss and partner in this endeavor, has a full test system in his shop!
My clever solution was to devise a Thermoelectric Peltier Device Air Conditioning Equipment Simulator! Continue reading “Thermoelectric Peltier Device Air Conditioning Equipment Simulator”
Cell phone towers are everywhere. At the base of each tower is a small “machine” room that houses all the telephone equipment needed for the site. Most of this equipment is electronic and it is important that it keeps running no matter what – we can’t stop playing our Pokémon Go…
Actually, cell-based telephone service is a robust service that is a world unto itself. The machine rooms are full of industrial-grade equipment meant to take a beating and provide service under extreme conditions. One of those conditions is loss of power. This means that each machine room has an extensive battery backup system in addition to all the communications and computer electronics.
