ATEX HMI & Matrix Screen Enclosures For Offshore Applications

ATEX HMI & Matrix Screen Enclosures For Offshore Applications
ATEX HMI & Matrix Screen Enclosures
Application for Hazardous Areas
A fast track on-going regeneration project for an offshore drilling operation required the client to design & install ATEX Enclosure with HMI control and driller panels complete with safety critical apparatus exceptionally short lead times.
How ATEX HMI & Matrix Screen Enclosures Solved The Problem
This particular client had very specific and unique design requirements meaning “standard” off the shelf enclosures were of no use at all. All the fabrications shown here were the same project so all had to be of the same standard and tolerances.
- Needing to fit a pre-determined footprint and housing delicate and safety critical apparatus, the fabrications had to protect against the most onerous of offshore conditions.
- Downtime in any industry, can prove very costly.
- Flameproof enclosures (Ex d) were, as usual, considered far too expensive, over engineered, cumbersome, heavy and unsuitable
SOLution ATEX HMI & Matrix Screen Enclosures
Highly skilled in-house design team utilise the latest and fastest design software. This enables the company to “unwrap” the clients own drawing designs. It is imperative to work closely with your client to ensure a smooth transition to manufacture and allowing the design for use on the correct tooling. So, effectively the client can have a custom ATEX enclosure in the time it would take most a “standard” enclosure with a couple of gland plates and a few entries to you.
Every ATEX enclosure or fabrication is built to the highest standard. No Compromise.
Great reputation for rapid, efficient customer service with the highest quality products. Working very hard to ensure your complete satisfaction at every level of the enquiry to delivery process and beyond. No inconvenience.
Generally customers for the O&G industry require a very fast reaction time as shutdowns can be very costly. Always build with this in mind and are conscious that every minute counts. No delay.
