Rittal’s New 316 Stainless Steel TS 8 Enclosure: Built for the Toughest Environments

Rittal, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of electrical enclosures, continues to set the standard in the industry with the latest addition to its renowned TS 8 freestanding enclosure series. Constructed from robust 316 stainless steel, this new TS 8 enclosure is specifically engineered to excel in the most challenging and corrosive environments. Whether it’s the intense conditions of oil and gas fields, the stringent sanitary requirements of life sciences, or the corrosive atmospheres of wastewater treatment plants, Rittal’s 316 Stainless Steel TS 8 is the go-to solution for safeguarding critical equipment.

Why 316 Stainless Steel?

316 stainless steel is chosen for its superior corrosion resistance, especially in harsh environments where the enclosure might be exposed to chemicals, salts, or extreme temperatures. This makes the new TS 8 not only durable but also a reliable option for industries where equipment failure is not an option. The material’s robustness ensures long-term protection, extending the life of the enclosed components and minimizing the risk of costly downtime.

Unrivaled Features and Advantages

  • The new TS 8 enclosure brings together the best of Rittal’s innovative design and engineering, offering numerous advantages over traditional unibody enclosures:
    • Advanced Sealing for Ultimate Protection: Equipped with a four-point latching system and a continuous foamed-in-place gasket, the TS 8 ensures a reliable, water-tight, and dust-proof seal. This advanced environmental sealing capability keeps the internal environment of the enclosure free from contaminants, protecting sensitive electronics and equipment even in the harshest conditions.
    • Significant Space and Weight Savings: The TS 8 design offers up to 30% more available mounting space compared to traditional unibody enclosures of the same dimensions. This increased space allows for more components to be housed within the same footprint, enhancing system integration and reducing the need for multiple enclosures. Additionally, the modular design leads to lower overall weight, which reduces transportation costs and simplifies installation.
    • Security and Accessibility: The enclosure features a padlock-able handle, offering both easy access for authorized personnel and enhanced security against unauthorized entry. This is particularly important in remote or unmanned installations where equipment security is paramount.
    • Flexibility and Customization: One of the standout features of the TS 8 is its ability to accommodate a wide range of accessories. These accessories allow for three-dimensional mounting of components on all internal surfaces, providing unparalleled flexibility in configuring the enclosure’s interior to meet specific application needs. Whether it’s additional shelving, cable management systems, or specialized brackets, the TS 8 can be customized to suit any requirement.
    • Impressive Load-Bearing Capacity: With a total load capacity of up to 3,150 lbs, the TS 8 is capable of supporting heavy equipment and dense component arrangements without compromising structural integrity. This makes it an ideal choice for complex installations that require robust and reliable support.
    • Ease of Installation and Maintenance: Installation and maintenance are streamlined thanks to the TS 8’s design features, such as eyebolts for easy lifting and positioning during setup, and spring-loaded, quick-release hinges that allow for fast and easy removal and reattachment of the enclosure doors. These features are designed to reduce downtime and make routine maintenance more efficient.

Setting a New Standard for Harsh Environments

Rittal’s new 316 Stainless Steel TS 8 Enclosure is more than just a protective box; it’s a comprehensive solution that addresses the specific needs of industries operating in harsh environments. Its combination of advanced features, robust construction, and flexible design makes it a standout choice for any application where reliability, durability, and functionality are critical.

This latest innovation from Rittal not only builds on the legacy of the TS 8 series but also sets a new benchmark for what a freestanding enclosure can achieve in challenging conditions. Whether in the corrosive atmosphere of a chemical plant or the rigorous demands of a pharmaceutical production line, the 316 Stainless Steel TS 8 is engineered to perform reliably, ensuring that your critical equipment is always protected and operational.

Conclusion: A Solution Tailored to Your Needs

Rittal’s commitment to innovation and quality shines through in the design of the new 316 Stainless Steel TS 8 Enclosure. It’s more than just an enclosure; it’s a versatile, reliable, and cost-effective solution designed to meet the toughest challenges head-on.
