Stainless Steel Enclosures
Stainless steel enclosures provide steadfast and unyielding protection for electrical components. Primarily constructed from stainless steel, these enclosures repel corrosion that can threaten their integrity over time. For this reason, they are especially popular in demanding environments, such as those found in chemical plants, oil and gas refineries, or wastewater treatment facilities, which frequently put all kinds of moisture or corrosive chemicals in contact with enclosures.
Enclosures must often satisfy precise criteria, such as the NEMA rating, if they are to meet required standards. The NEMA rating prescribes an enclosure's capacity to handle certain environmental conditions. For instance, an enclosure rated NEMA 4X provides a superior level of protection against dust, rain, and even hose-directed water. Because it satisfies these guidelines, an enclosure with a NEMA 4X rating can be used in applications both indoors and out.
Decisions about which enclosure to select rely entirely on the needs of the operation. If one values ready entry, then handles and entry points must be a priority. If the reverse is true and easy entry has to be kept to an absolute minimum, then the enclosure has to have a much tighter appearance overall. The aesthetic appearance of the stainless steel enclosure should also be taken into consideration. After all, the way an enclosure looks matters a lot, particularly if these situations are in a commercial or industrial setting where a seal on the entrance can present a finished appearance that withstands day to day use.
