The Principle of Positive Pressure – Building a Shield of Air At the heart of TLS’s safety design lies the positive pressure protection principle. Clean air is continuously delivered into the container through a dedicated ventilation system, ensuring that the internal air pressure is always higher than the surrounding environment. This pressure difference acts as an invisible barrier: any external air containing flammable or toxic gases cannot enter the container, effectively preventing explosion and poisoning risks. A standard TLS pressurization system includes:
Even if gas leaks or explosive mixtures appear outside, the interior environment remains safe and breathable. 2. Built to International Standards TLS pressurized containers are engineered and certified according to international standards such as IEC 60079-13 and DNV 2.7-1. They are equipped with explosion-proof air conditioners, lighting, and electrical components, all tested and verified by third-party authorities. These containers are designed for long-term operation in Zone 1 and Zone 2 areas, meeting the strict safety requirements of the global oil, gas, and chemical sectors. 3. Smart Airflow and Pressure Monitoring Safety meets intelligence in TLS’s smart control system. By automatically monitoring pressure, airflow, and gas concentration, the system maintains optimal working conditions without manual adjustment. Key features include:
This smart system ensures continuous safety with minimal operator intervention. 4. Modular Design for Flexible Applications TLS explosion-proof pressurized containers are modular and customizable, allowing them to serve as control rooms, laboratories, accommodation units, or multifunctional modules. Their modular structure makes them easy to transport, stack, and install on site — whether on offshore platforms, drilling rigs, or chemical plants, they can be quickly deployed to provide a safe and comfortable workspace. 5. Customization and Full Lifecycle Support TLS offers end-to-end service — from design and manufacturing to installation, commissioning, and after-sales support. Each unit can be customized in size, fan configuration, electrical interface, and monitoring system to fit the specific needs of your project site. Conclusion The TLS Explosion-Proof Pressurized Container creates a secure working environment by maintaining positive internal pressure, ensuring that hazardous gases are kept out at all times.

These extreme conditions challenge every aspect of the design. Drawing on years of engineering experience, TLS has developed solutions that ensure stable operation under all conditions, focusing on ventilation, corrosion protection, insulation, electrical systems, and intelligent monitoring. 1. High-Temperature Environments: Smart Airflow Keeps Internal Temperatures Safe In desert regions above 50°C, electrical components are prone to overheating. TLS uses a combined system of fans, exhaust vents, and ducted air conditioning for efficient internal airflow. Intelligent temperature control modules monitor conditions in real time, automatically adjusting airflow or AC operation to keep internal temperatures within a safe range. 2. Low-Temperature Environments: Freeze Protection and Insulation In extremely cold regions, materials become brittle and equipment can be difficult to start. TLS containers feature multi-layer insulation—rock wool, aluminum foil layers, and internal panels—that prevents heat loss and condensation. Optional electric heating systems ensure that electrical components operate reliably even at -40°C. 3. Marine Environments: Salt and Corrosion Resistance High humidity and salt spray offshore are tough on metal structures and electrical systems. TLS applies a C5-M corrosion protection coating system—primer, epoxy intermediate layer, and polyurethane topcoat—for multi-layer defense. Fasteners can be made of 316L stainless steel, with welds and corners specially protected to prevent salt corrosion. 4. Dust Protection Design: Keeping Air Flowing, Dust Away In mining sites or desert projects where sandstorms are frequent, TLS adopts a three-layer protection design — reinforced sealing strips, airlock double doors, and optimized airflow pathways — to effectively reduce the impact of dust on internal equipment and space. Under typical dusty conditions, these measures help maintain a clean and stable interior environment. For harsher conditions, TLS can provide optional upgrades such as high-efficiency filters, positive pressure ventilation systems, and regular maintenance plans to further enhance protection. Note: The dust protection design significantly reduces dust accumulation but cannot fully prevent it under extreme sandstorm conditions. Actual performance may vary depending on site environment and maintenance. 5. Electrical and Intelligent Systems: Reliable and Visible All electrical components are industrial-grade, wide-temperature units with surge, short-circuit, and grounding protection for stable operation. Optional smart monitoring systems track temperature, humidity, and fan status in real time, automatically alerting operators if abnormalities occur. 6. Conclusion Reliability in extreme climates is never accidental. Through structural reinforcement, protective coatings, temperature control, and intelligent systems, TLS ensures every pressurized explosion-proof box can withstand time and environmental challenges. Whether in deserts, offshore, or polar regions, TLS is committed to delivering safe, reliable, and fully customizable explosion-proof container solutions worldwide.

Here’s why that distinction matters: 1. Clients need a working system, not an empty shell In industries like oil & gas, energy storage, and chemicals, clients don’t face isolated equipment problems—they face entire project scenarios. They need to consider explosion protection, heat dissipation, wiring, ventilation, corrosion resistance, transport, and long-term operation. A container that only solves the structural side can’t guarantee project success. TLS adds value by integrating all these elements into a reliable system, ensuring equipment can operate safely and effectively. 2. System thinking starts at the design stage From the very beginning, TLS doesn’t just consider steel strength. We also plan for:
3. Craftsmanship details determine lifecycle Welding, coating, corrosion protection, explosion-proof installation, fan layout—these details directly affect container longevity and stability. TLS optimizes them as a unified system rather than in isolation. For example, aligning welding and drainage design reduces long-term corrosion in salty or harsh environments. 4. Maintenance-friendly design is part of the system Clients worry about future maintenance. TLS addresses this by including accessible service paths, replaceable components, and pre-planned interfaces in our designs. This minimizes the need for major modifications later and ensures smooth upgrades or repairs. It’s why many clients see TLS as a long-term partner rather than a one-time supplier. 5. System solutions come with accountability Selling a container is easy. Delivering a complete system means TLS takes responsibility for safety, reliability, and lifecycle performance. That’s the fundamental difference between TLS and a standard manufacturer. Our clients get not just a product, but a verifiable, traceable guarantee of reliability. Conclusion TLS doesn’t just manufacture containers. We use system thinking to solve the real-world challenges of project implementation. From structure to craftsmanship, from design to maintenance, every step is aimed at overall reliability. That’s why we don’t sell containers—we sell system solutions.
