Consider and monitor relative humidity with an evaporative cooler.
Use an evaporative cooler during the hot times only when you know
how cool the environment will be at night. If the temperature falls
below the dew point or saturation point, dew or condensation will
form and collect on your electronic CNC equipment surfaces and you
risk short circuits and corrosion at electrical connections. If you
don't want to monitor relative humidity and temperature swings, then
it's better to use an air conditioner to cool the air because you
are removing moisture: when it gets cold at night, you will not
condense moisture from the air onto your electronic CNC equipment.
