Notes:
1. Natural and forced convection thermal resistances based on 6.000 in. length for profiles less than 8.000” wide.
2. Natural and forced convection thermal resistances based on12.000 in. length for profiles 8.000” wide and greater
3. Forced convection thermal resistance based on 500 LFM, shrouded, horizontal. distributed heat load.
4. Forced convection bonded fin assemblies use standard "muffin" fans.
5. Dimensions shown are as extruded. To improve flatness across the width, bases can be machined. Machined base thickness will be reduced.
