Stainless Steel Electrical Enclosures
IP Enclosures’ stainless steel electrical enclosures are engineered to provide robust protection for electrical, control, and instrumentation equipment in harsh, corrosive, and extreme environments. They are ideal for demanding applications such as mining, infrastructure, marine, and industrial processing where exposure to moisture, chemicals, or mechanical impact is common.
Constructed from 304L and 316L stainless steel, these enclosures offer excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in chloride-rich and coastal environments where long-term durability is critical. Designed and tested in accordance with IEC/EN 62208, IEC/EN 61439, and IEC/EN/AS 60529, they provide up to IP66 ingress protection and IK10 impact resistance. Independent certification by accredited laboratories ensures compliance, performance, and reliability.
Designed in Australia and precision-manufactured in world-class European facilities, IP Enclosures’ stainless steel range delivers outstanding structural integrity and protection in the most demanding industrial operating conditions.
