Cabinets Shelters - INTERTEC-Hess - #5

Text version of the page

Superb environmental protection INTERTEC has developed special fabrication techniques for creating tough and durable cabinets and shelters for harsh outdoor operating environments. We use sandwich type construction with inner and outer GRP skins enclosing cores of insulating PU foam (or mineral wool if long fire resistance times are required). This construction technique combines strength and rigidity with a high degree of environmental protection. Three standard types of cabinets and shelters provide platforms for a very broad range of outdoor equipment needs. BASIC cabinets Light-duty cabinets (IP65 as standard) for free-standing or wall-mounted applications, with cable entry typically via the bottom or rear. Available in sizes up to 2 m high. Double-walled GRP skins with PU foam cores provide excellent durability. Internal Unistrut or C-rails offer excellent mounting flexibility. CLASSIC cabinets This variation extends the loadbearing capability by means of internal support posts - made from high tensile strength pulltruded GRP. Can be made in almost any size up to heights of typically 3 m. Many design variations are possible, including construction and floor materials (such as containment floors). ARCTIC shelters Thick sandwich-construction panels provide superb thermal insulation properties combined with high structural strength and durability. Maximum size is almost limitless, our design team can configure single piece walls and roofs up to 6x3 m - for air tight integrity. Railways. Configured to house high current switches, these Classic cabinets feature UV- and graffiti-resistant gel-coating, 15 mm thick insulation for cold climates, freeze protection,and a metalfree exterior surface. The GRP materials are also fabricated using a low smoke generating resin. Telecommunications. These Classic cabinets house cellphone base station equipment, and feature UV- and graffitiresistant gel-coating, freeze protection and air conditioning. Railways. These custom cabinets house switchgear and termination equipment for a metro transit system. The GRP materials are fabricated using a generating resin. Water. This Classic cabinet houses equipment that controls the operation of a rainfall collection basin. Features include UV- and graffiti-resistant gel-coating, thick insulation, a metal-free exterior surface, and a special swing-out mounting system to simplify maintenance and access to cabling and terminations. Airports. These shelters house lighting control equipment for runways. Among many special features are frangibility for passive safety, and 100% metal-free construction to eliminate danger of sparks on a collision and to minimise interference with radar/radio. Water. This Arctic shelter houses the drives, motors and controls required for this large pumping station in the water supply infrastructure. The flexibility of INTERTEC’s manufacturing process made it easy to shape the shelter to suit the concrete construction. A completely metalfree exterior surface is used for corrosion resistance. Water. These shelters house instrumentation used to control a Middle Eastern water pipeline. A water-based passive cooling system and thick insulation limits the extremes of day and night temperature swings.
