APPLICATION:
Transformer cubicles are structures designed to provide an enclosed and safe environment for electrical components, protecting them from adverse environmental factors that can compromise the transformer's performance and lifespan. This protection is important to ensure the transformer's performance and durability, especially in industrial or outdoor environments where adverse conditions may be present. The use of these cubicles helps to preserve the transformer's integrity and keep it running efficiently. In addition, it protects operators and technicians from risks associated with operating and maintaining the equipment.
DESCRIPTION:
Carbon steel cubicle with modular bolted structure, with sill base, removable covers: sides, top and bottom. Structure and closures in RAL 7032 grey. They have a modular design for easy access, where the components are manufactured and assembled in the factory, which simplifies the installation process. This guarantees precision and controlled quality, since they are delivered pre-assembled in parts that fit together perfectly, reducing the need for complex on-site assembly.
CONSTRUCTION FEATURES :
The IP (Ingress Protection) of a transformer cubicle is a rating that indicates the level of protection offered by the cubicle against the ingress of solids (such as dust and debris) and liquids (such as water) thus guaranteeing its safe and reliable operation, even in adverse environments. This rating is defined according to an international standard (IEC 60529) and is made up of two numbers. The IP20 - IP21 - IP23 ratings mean the following:
- The first digit (2) indicates the level of protection against the ingress of solids. The number 2 means that the cubicle offers protection against solid objects over 12.5 mm in diameter, but is not completely dustproof.- The second digit (0) indicates the level of protection against the ingress of liquids. The number 0 means that the cubicle offers no protection against water ingress.- The second digit (1) indicates the level of protection against liquid ingress. The number 1 means that the cubicle offers protection against vertical drops of water falling directly into the cabinet, but with a limited amount of ingress allowed.- The second digit (3) indicates the level of protection against liquid ingress. The number 3 means that the cubicle offers protection against splashed water at an angle of up to 60 degrees to the vertical.It is important to consider the specific environmental conditions of each application when deciding whether an IP20, IP21 or IP23 cubicle is appropriate. If there is more severe exposure to water, it may be necessary to opt for a cubicle with a higher protection rating, such as IP43W or IP54.
