mcc enclosed dsigned by tls offshore containers

3/15/2023

 
A Motor Control Center (MCC) enclosure is a centralized system that houses motor starters, drives, and other electrical equipment for controlling and protecting electric motors in an industrial setting. In some applications, such as offshore platforms, hazardous environments, or areas with a high risk of explosion, it is necessary to use pressurized containers for MCC enclosures to maintain safety and reliability. TLS Offshore Containers International is a company that specializes in producing such pressurized containers for MCC enclosures.
A pressurized MCC enclosure is designed to maintain a higher internal pressure than the surrounding environment, which helps prevent the ingress of explosive gases, dust, or other hazardous materials. This type of enclosure is typically built according to specific standards and certifications, such as ATEX, IECEx, or NEC, to ensure compliance with safety requirements in hazardous areas.
Key design aspects of pressurized MCC enclosures include:
  1. Structural design: The pressurized container should be designed to withstand the internal pressure and external forces (such as wind, waves, or seismic activity) that it may encounter in its specific application. This involves selecting appropriate materials, thicknesses, and reinforcements to ensure the container's structural integrity.
  2. Pressurization system: A pressurization system, such as a purging or continuous pressurization system, is used to maintain a positive pressure within the enclosure. This system typically includes a source of clean, dry air or inert gas, pressure regulators, and monitoring equipment to ensure that the pressure is maintained within a specified range.
  3. Sealing and gaskets: High-quality seals and gaskets are crucial for maintaining the pressurized environment inside the enclosure. These components should be resistant to degradation from exposure to the specific environmental conditions and chemicals present in the application.
  4. Ventilation and cooling: Since electric motors and other equipment within the MCC generate heat during operation, it is important to design a cooling system that can dissipate this heat without compromising the pressurized environment. This can involve passive cooling methods, such as heat exchangers or radiation, or active cooling methods, such as air conditioning or liquid cooling systems.
  5. Access and maintenance: Design the enclosure with access points for maintenance and inspection while maintaining the pressurized environment. This may involve using pressure-tight doors, access hatches, or specialized seals and gaskets.
  6. Electrical design: Similar to standard MCC enclosures, the electrical design of pressurized MCC enclosures involves specifying and sizing the components, wiring, grounding, and protection measures required for safe and efficient operation.
  7. Safety and monitoring: Incorporate safety measures, such as overpressure relief valves, to prevent excessive pressure buildup within the enclosure. Include a monitoring system to track the pressure levels and other relevant parameters in real-time, enabling operators to take action if necessary.
  8. Compliance with standards and regulations: Ensure that the pressurized MCC enclosure design complies with all relevant standards, codes, and regulations for hazardous area applications. This may involve meeting requirements for explosion protection, ingress protection, or material specifications.
By considering these design aspects and working with a reputable manufacturer like TLS Offshore Containers International, you can create a pressurized MCC enclosure that meets the safety and reliability requirements for your specific application.
