Enclosure Hardware for Energy, Oil & Gas: providing safety in hazardous conditions
Few industries demand more of equipment and hardware than oil and gas production, and the energy sector in general. Offshore rigs, for example, operate in notoriously exposed and hazardous conditions.
Power generated from solar and wind sources use sensitive electrical components and batteries that if exposed to the elements can cause system failure. As a result, stringent safety and process restrictions are required and equipment must be kept in secure, robust enclosure units.
Most enclosures for wind and solar applications are located outside and must be able to withstand exposure to extreme temperatures, excessive humidity or dryness and weather conditions such as rain, ice, wind and snow.

In the Spotlight - Come wind, rain or shine
Protecting equipment in hazardous environments with high quality enclosure hardware.
The energy industry covers a wide range of specific sectors, from wind and solar power to oil and gas production. Whilst these disciplines differ widely in terms of the energy they produce and the equipment they use, there are also commonalities - the most prominent of which is the fact that they often operate in extreme and even hazardous circumstances.Read full article »
