ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method and a device for protecting electronics which are cooled with exterior air. The device comprises an electronic circuit (8) arranged on an electronic support (1) with associated connector (7), which electronic circuit (8) consists of electronic components and/or subcircuits. The device is characterized in that it comprises on the one hand a first casing (2) which surrounds the electronic circuit (8) and towards and over the surface of which a cooling air current (30) is led, on the other hand a second casing (6) which is arranged to cooperate with the first casing (2) so that a connector (7) associated with the electronic circuit (8) is protected from the cooling air current (30) in a space (13, 16) separated from the cooling air current (30). An object with the present invention is to protect electronic equipment with associated connectors from moisture, gas and contaminants in exterior air and thereby obstruct corrosion damage and leakage currents which occur when exterior air is used for cooling.
