Built Tough for Aussie Conditions: A Guide to IP Rated Cabinets
A standard data or electrical cabinet is fine for a clean, air-conditioned office. But what happens when you need to install sensitive equipment in a dusty workshop, a damp agricultural shed, a mine site, or on an exposed outdoor wall? For these demanding environments, you need the bullet-proof protection of a certified IP Rated Cabinet.
At SCHNAP, our range of rugged enclosures is engineered to safeguard your critical electrical and network systems from the toughest Aussie conditions, ensuring long-term reliability and performance.
What Does an IP Rating Mean? A Quick Guide
"IP" stands for Ingress Protection, and it's a global standard that tells you exactly how well an enclosure protects against solids (like dust) and liquids (like water). It’s a simple two-digit code:
- First Digit (Solids): Rates protection from things like dust and dirt. A '5' means it's dust-protected, while a '6' means it's completely dust-tight.
- Second Digit (Liquids): Rates protection from water. A '5' can handle water jets from any direction, while a '6' can withstand powerful water jets, like from a high-pressure hose.
So, an IP66 cabinet offers the highest level of protection against dust and water ingress, making it ideal for the most challenging indoor or outdoor locations.
Choosing the Right IP Rated Cabinet for the Job
Our collection includes solutions for a huge range of applications.
- Wall-Mounted Enclosures: Perfect for housing control panels, network switches, or security gear in workshops, factories, or outdoor undercover areas. They provide certified protection in a compact, space-saving design.
- Freestanding & Outdoor Units: These heavy-duty, larger IP Rated Cabinets are designed to stand alone outdoors. They are the ideal solution for housing telecommunications equipment, agricultural control systems, or any larger setup that needs to be protected from the elements.
