Thermal design and ingress.

Technologies

• Environmental condition classes Defined climatic and mechanical classes for storage, transport and outdoor use.
• Thermal design and cooling Passive, heat-exchanger and air-conditioned enclosure designs from heat and solar load.
• Cold-climate heating Heaters, insulation and cold-start sequences for electronics and batteries.
• Ingress protection (IP code) Protection against dust and water defined by test, chosen per location.
• Impact protection (IK code) Protection of enclosures against mechanical impact and vandalism.
• Enclosure types Enclosure ratings used in North American specifications.
• Corrosion and coatings Material and coating selection for coastal, industrial and salt-spray sites.
• Phase-change thermal buffering Phase-change materials in enclosures that flatten day-night swings without active cooling.
