3-Sided Electrical Equipment Shelters
Solarcraft three-sided electrical equipment shelters are designed for outdoor installations of instrumentation cabinets, electrical cabinets, controls, and other valuable equipment requiring more protection than an exposed electrical rack. The three-sided shelter protects equipment from wind and rain. It is constructed on a galvanized steel platform base, with corners and sides of powder-coated steel 2-foot panels and an 8-foot-high peaked steel roof.
Power Inside Them
- We design and fabricate best-in-class enclosures and shelters
- We base power requirements on worst-case situations, so you never lose power
- We skillfully integrate components, then inspect, test, install, commission, and maintain systems in the field for the life of your systems
Bus Stop Equipment Racks
We build rugged outdoor electrical equipment racks that we loosely call “Bus Stops”. A Bus Stop is a modular steel equipment frame comprised of a forklift-carry platform base, steel deck plates, notched steel upright supports, Unistrut attachment rails, with a galvannealed steel roof. The Bus Stop has been developed to save time and simplify power systems installation. Include your PLCs and communications systems for a single heavy duty installation, bypassing the headache of constructing permanent site infrastructure.
Features
- Galvanized steel frame platform with forklift slots and lifting eyes; galvanized steel deck plates available in customized sizes
- Galvanized or powder coated steel upright supports with notched attachment points for Unistrut rails
- Horizontal Unistrut cross members for mounting enclosures
- Sturdy roof construction made of Galvannealed steel with powder coat finish
- Roof designed to withstand 90 lbs. per square foot of snow load, and 90 mph wind gusts
Ballast Block
BasesWhere required, a bus stop skid or three-sided shelter can be secured onto a pair of engineered concrete ballast blocks for stability, counter weight, and above grade installation. Two ballast blocks are sufficient for most installations; two more blocks can be added to counter extreme wind loads.
- Engineered reinforced concrete ballast blocks for above-grade installation and stabilized foundation
- Pivoting claw fasteners connect the platform base to ballast block with galvanized steel channel
- External Channel is fixed to a internal framework and embedded in the concrete ballast block
