A cooling system for a sealed enclosure having heat generating equipment therein characterized by force convection indirect cooling of the heat generating equipment combined with a natural convention external finned heat sink. The cooling system or heat exchanger is mounted to the wall of the sealed enclosure and includes two side plates which are mounted a spaced distance from one another. One side plate forms a portion of a wall of the sealed enclosure and has fin elements mounted on one side, which side is outside of the enclosure. Fin elements are mounted between the two side plates extending inwardly from opposing ends of the side plates a desired distance thereby forming a central plenum between the two sets of fin elements. A fan is mounted in a manner to drawn air in between the side plates and return it to the enclosed environment.
