A sheet metal stainless steel enclosure is an exterior enclosure used to enclose and protect electrical equipment, control panels, or other electronic components.SKYT® is a leading manufacturer of electrical enclosures with strict quality standards to meet customer needs.
Sheet metal stainless steel enclosures are external enclosures used to protect electrical equipment and components with good corrosion resistance and structural strength. Stainless steel is a metal with strong weather resistance and corrosion resistance, so it is often used to make electrical enclosures to ensure that equipment can operate stably in various environments.
Design phase:
Determine the size, shape and functional requirements of sheet metal stainless steel enclosure.
Consider special requirements such as ventilation, heat dissipation, and waterproofing.
Create detailed design drawings using computer-aided design (CAD) software.
Material selection:
Choose the appropriate stainless steel material, usually 304 or 316 stainless steel.
Choose the appropriate stainless steel material according to the use environment, such as 316 stainless steel in a highly corrosive environment.
Cutting and shaping:
Use high-precision equipment such as laser cutting or CNC punching machines to cut the stainless steel plate into the desired shape according to the design drawing.
Bending and shaping are carried out to obtain the specific structure of the shell of sheet metal stainless steel enclosure.
Welding:
Use TIG (Tig Welding) or MIG (Metal Inert Gas Welding) welding technology.
Ensure the strength and sealing of welded joints.
Surface treatment:
Polishing is performed to improve the finish of the shell surface of sheet metal stainless steel enclosure.
In marine or highly corrosive environments, special anti-corrosion surface treatments are available.
Install accessories:
Install accessories such as vents, sealing strips, cable entries, etc. to ensure they meet design requirements.
Use professional tools to ensure the attachment is securely installed.
Quality inspection:
Carry out appearance inspection, dimensional inspection and weld inspection, etc.
Use non-destructive testing techniques such as X-ray or ultrasonic testing to ensure the quality of welded parts.
Painting:
Where increased corrosion resistance is required, the sheet metal stainless steel enclosure is painted.
Choose paint that meets environmental standards to ensure even coverage of the surface.
Routine maintenance:
Regular cleaning: Use a mild detergent and a soft cloth to clean the surface of the case. Avoid using cleaning agents containing acidic or alkaline substances to prevent corrosion of the stainless steel surface.
Check sealing: Check seals and seams regularly to ensure they are intact and prevent moisture and dust from penetrating; replace worn or aged seals.
Anti-rust treatment: According to the use environment, regularly use stainless steel anti-rust agent to extend the service life of the shell of sheet metal stainless steel enclosure.
Pay attention to temperature: Under extreme temperature conditions, pay attention to the surface temperature of the case to ensure that the device is functioning properly.
Fastener inspection: Regularly check the bolts and fasteners of the housing to ensure they are tight and prevent problems caused by looseness.
Through the above process and maintenance steps, not only can the quality and performance of the sheet metal stainless steel enclosure be ensured, but its service life can also be extended and the reliability of the electrical equipment can be improved.
