Vented Electrical Enclosure

Your Specialist for Vented Electrical Enclosure

XYD Steel is focusing on designing high-quality vented electrical enclosures to provide protection, allow for pressure equalization, proper heat dissipation, eliminating dust or liquids.

Even with unmatched performance, XYD Vented Electrical Enclosure is still cost-competitive. Talk to our vented electrical enclosure design team today for your custom-made designs.

XYD Vented Electrical Enclosure also called vented enclosure or vented electrical enclosure box is made from steel, galvanized steel, or stainless steel (304/136L). It has an in-built venting mechanism, featuring a slanting louvered opening, fan cooling systems, or vent duct.

XYD Vented Electrical Enclosure Series

IP65 Stainless Steel Outdoor Electrical Enclosure

KDM IP65 Stainless Steel Outdoor enclosure provides complete protection against dust or any materials entering the enclosure.

NEMA 4X Outdoor Electrical Enclosure

KDM NEMA 4X outdoor electrical enclosures are commonly used in extreme and harsh environments where corrosive materials and caustic cleaners are used.

XYD Offers Your Different Types of Venting Device

With over 10 years of experience in designing and manufacturing vented electrical enclosures, XYD customizes these accessories to specific applications and environments.

For example, XYD Steel engineers can design a vented NEMA 3R ventilated enclosure. But since venting may compromise some performance NEMA specifications, XYD Steel engineers will design the electrical enclosure appropriately.

XYD for Customized Vented Electrical Enclosure

When there are high-power electrical parts, such as frequency converters, the enclosures should have a good ventilation design. The electrical enclosure base can be empty inside with venting hole designs on the base surface for airflow and wires set. We can also add ventilation fans at the bottom to increase air circulation.

Whether you are searching for a vented electrical enclosure for the high-temperature environment, corrosive environment, or that guarantees effective heat dissipation, XYD Steel has a solution.

Our team evaluates all design considerations, from quick opening mechanism, concealed or continuous hinge, gasket, physical size (determines the electrical enclosure’s ability to dissipate heat) to applications.

Met Both Ventilation and Dust and Water Resistance

Vents themselves can be protected with louvers, shells, and filters.

Enclosures can be IP and NEMA compliant, and we offer both.

Louvers and shells work the same – they keep downpour liquid out of the vent, as well as most of dust.

Although, if the liquid or dust is coming from the sides or drifting up, it will get into the vent.

Louvers are better for openings, while shells are better for fans.

Here is where a filter could catch that.

IP enclosures are rated with the IP code, which has 2 digits – one for protection against solid ingress and another against liquid.

The maximum IP protection an enclosure can have is IP69K, which is fully dust-tight and can be submerged underwater for a long time and sprayed with hot water jets.

We offer enclosures up to IP66, which means it is dust-tight and can be sprayed with pressurized jets of water.

As for NEMA, we offer any type, starting with 1 and up to 13, including subtypes, such as 3R.

Depending on the environment and nature of the application, KDM Vented Electrical Enclosure may feature only louvered openings or both louvered openings and fan(s).

For better heat dissipation, XYD Steel engineers recommend a vented electrical enclosure with fans. The fans enhance heat dissipation by 10%, eliminate hot spots by mixing air in the enclosure through forced air circulation.

However, XYD Vented Electrical Enclosure with fans is not suitable for the extremely high or low-temperature environment. But, XYD engineers can modify fan-cooled vented electrical enclosures by installing screens or air filters on the back to the louvered openings.

Unlike other models of vented enclosures available out there, XYD Vented Electrical Enclosure conforms to the NEC or NFPA, NFPA 70E 2009, RoHS, CE, and NEMA standards. By this, XYD Steel vented electrical enclosure box is free from the accumulation of heat or overheating, thereby increasing the service lifespan of electrical components.

What is an electrical enclosure?

An electrical enclosure is electronic equipment that is constructed in form of a box or cabinet which is typically used for mounting electrical components like switches knobs and many other devices in an enclosed space for protecting its constituents.

How many types of electrical enclosures exist?

There are 8 popular types of electrical enclosures that exist in accordance with the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) which are: NEMA 1, NEMA 3, NEMA 4, NEMA 4X, NEMA 6, NEMA 6P, NEMA 7, and NEMA 12 electrical enclosures. Each of this model has peculiar and related features that allow electrical users to equip one that is most suitable. In essence, the ratings describe the specific protection provided by various enclosure cabinets in an environment.
