In Australia, Rockwell Automation is using system solutions from Rittal in a large infrastructure project. Robust enclosures and cooling units ensure drive systems operate smoothly, even in harsh environments such as those found in the mining industry. The symmetrical design makes it easy to use the full height and depth of the enclosure when fitting accessories. What’s more, enclosures have a load-bearing capacity of up to 1,400 kg, which is ideal for accommodating heavy drive systems. Further plus points include flexible baying and efficient cable management thanks to gland plates with multiple knock-outs for simple cable entry and installation. Triple treatment of enclosure surfaces using a nanoceramic coating, electrophoretic dipcoat priming and a textured powder coating ensures optimum corrosion protection under extreme conditions. Software solutions from Eplan were used for the engineering work, and design engineers benefited from excellent digital continuity during this process.

The stated goals of Enerke Oy when introducing Eplan software were to boost efficiency, reduce the number of hours required for development work and improve the quality of documentation. The Finnish company offers its customers power distribution and telecommunication system services. The benefits of Eplan quickly became evident. “We were able to shorten development times considerably. In some areas, the time required was even halved,” says Kim Lillfors, Service Manager at Enerke Oy.

Based in the Thai capital Bangkok, the Department of Provincial Administration (DOPA) reports directly to the Ministry of the Interior. In the future, DOPA’s critical IT infrastructure will be accommodated in a Rittal security room. The project covers the entire high-availability room – complete with single door, ventilation and overpressure components, and an electronic control system.

Nova Poshta is a Ukrainian logistics company that transports over 1.5 million shipments every day. The unreliable power supply was causing repeated sorting line outages and unscheduled stoppages. Process Control LLC was therefore commissioned to provide an uninterruptible power supply with an output of 120 kW. The battery modules are installed in VX25 enclosures from Rittal, each of which has a load-bearing capacity of up to 1,400 kg.

The result of a comparative test for a well-known US coffee manufacturer revealed far lower energy consumption for enclosure climate control. The company was looking to boost its energy efficiency during coffee production and cut its CO 2 emissions. Rittal carried out a one-year comparative test using Blue e and Blue e+ cooling units. The results showed an impressive 72 percent reduction in energy consumption thanks to the hybrid technology of the Blue e+ cooling units.
