Secure Your Critical Operations: The Power of Pressurised Shelter Solutions

​In today's demanding industrial environments, particularly offshore and in hazardous locations, protecting sensitive electrical equipment is paramount. Harsh climates and potentially explosive atmospheres pose significant risks to Motor Control Centres (MCC), switchgear, and other critical control systems. This is where advanced Pressurised Shelter Solutions come into play, offering a robust defense for your vital operations.  
 
What are Pressurised Shelters?
Pressurised shelters are specialized, containerized modules designed to house and protect electronic controls and switchgear. These shelters create a safe, controlled internal environment, shielding equipment from external hazards like extreme weather and gas ingress, especially when the equipment itself is not explosion-proof. The core idea is to enclose equipment like switchgear, MCC, Motor Circuit Protectors (MCP), Variable Frequency Drives (VFD), and Variable Speed Drives (VSD) within a weather-resistant container, complete with a walk-in entrance for operational access.
