GRP INSTRUMENT ENCLOSURE AND SUNSHADE
GRP INSTRUMENT ENCLOSURE AND SUNSHADE
The company, established in 1999, specializes in producing GRP instrument enclosures and sunshades for the oil & gas, energy, and petrochemical industries. Located near Milan, Italy, it exports to over 50 countries.
The document details various models of instrument enclosures and sunshades, including models like 115G, 125N (ATEX), and 700N2. Dimensions vary, with the largest being 710mm x 465mm x 340mm. These products are made from hot-pressed Glass Reinforced Polyester (GRP), known for its resistance to acids, solvents, and UV rays.
The enclosures feature a double sealing system for IP 66 protection, a rotating cover with a locking device, and stainless steel components. They are designed for aggressive environments, being self-extinguishing and highly resistant.
Products are tested for wind resistance up to 160 km/h, sand and dust exposure, and salt mist corrosion. They comply with ISO 179-1 for UV resistance and EAC CU TR 010/2011 standards. Some models are ATEX certified for use in explosive atmospheres.
These enclosures protect electronic components, actuator control panels, and pumps from environmental factors like temperature extremes, humidity, sunlight, and vandalism.
Options include antistatic materials, various mounting brackets, and custom designs. Accessories like TAG labels are also available.
The document emphasizes the reliability and durability of the enclosures, highlighting their importance in maintaining optimal conditions for industrial instruments.
