Spelsberg ’ s GEOS enclosure helps make tough decisions
While it ’ s always best practice try to position your electrical enclosures and distribution boxes under cover and away from high traffic areas , this isn ’ t always possible . For electrical installations that are going to be exposed to the elements and risk impact from passing site traffic , electrical engineers need the very toughest housing . The Spelsberg GEOS has been design from ground up to tough , flexible and safe in even the harshest of environments .
At it ’ s core , the GEOS range is produced from high-grade polycarbonate which is resistant to many corrosive chemicals , as well as providing protection from damaging UV rays and the effects of extreme temperature . The resultant IK09 high impact strength and IP67 ingress protection makes the GEOS one of the toughest enclosures on the market .
But that ’ s on the beginning of the story .
Chris Lloyd , Managing Director of Spelsberg UK , explains : “ At first glance , the GEOS might look like many of the other enclosures for Spelsberg ’ s vast range . But when you look a little closer you can see that every detail has been redesigned to offer the very best performance in the harshest of environments . We ’ ve included a functional , tool-free installation system , multiple internal and external mounting options and even a quick release closure system for the lids .”
One of the most beneficial features
Spelsberg UK maintains the largest UK stock of non-metallic electrical enclosures from its headquarters in Telford .
for those of us familiar with the British weather is the ‘ Drain Protect ’ sealing principle that was developed for GEOS . Any moisture that comes into contact with the enclosure is discharged by the widely overlapping cover and a drainage channel that is designed into the bottom of the enclosure at the rear of the box . The GEOS then doubles down with a elastomer seal to provide optimum protection from the worst of the weather .
Aside from the tough design , all of Spelsberg ’ s trademark usability can be found . Installers can choose between three sixes of enclosure – each available in different depths . The lids can be screwed on or hinged and are available as a transparent option if desired . In total there are 44 standard variations in the range , before you start speaking to Spelsberg ’ s engineering experts about the internal mounting plates and complete in-house customisation , lid printing and assembly services .
