In the manufacturing sector, NEMA rated, heavy-duty enclosures are an absolute must to protect electronics from unforgiving elements like dust, dirt, particulate matter, contaminants, and splashing fluids.

NEMA 4X rated computer enclosures are the perfect solution for a washdown environment. 

Computers, monitors, printers, and keyboards are an absolute must for product manufacturers, especially when it comes to automating the company’s processes. For computers to be operative in industrial settings, they are often placed in a dirty factory or plant environment, which means that they will most likely fail if exposed to harmful contaminants. Installing a NEMA 4X enclosure cabinet - to house a computer and electronics - will keep the system working for many years to come.

The beverage, food, and pharmaceutical industries, although primarily indoors, are challenging environments for electronics to exist and survive. A high pressure washdown, to reduce bacteria, utilizes harsh and abrasive cleaning solutions. Nevertheless, if not properly protected in a NEMA 4X computer enclosure, these chemicals will wreak havoc on computer systems

Deploying high-bright digital menu displays with enclosures takes research and strategizing.

Static menu boards, at the drive-thru, are not as prevalent as they once were, as Quick Service Restaurants (QSRs) revamp their strategy to include digital signage solutions (both outdoors and indoors). As technology improves, restaurants are adding innovative, easy-to-update digital displays (with all-weather enclosures) to present eye-catching animations and videos.

Outdoor digital menu boards make it simple for a restaurant to change prices, promote special food items or drinks, remove a sold-out product, boost sales, improve overall service, and increase the restaurant’s brand. Several factors must be considered when researching outdoor digital menu boards, including trustworthiness, how easy is it to use, and can the digital boards achieve long-term sales goals?

Project requirements vary widely and many require a custom solution to ensure specific electronics work well outdoors.  

Most enclosure manufacturers offer a few ‘off the shelf’ products, but electronics are ever-changing and certain instances will require a unique, custom product to be developed.

If your factory or manufacturing facility is dark, we have a bright idea!

 

Add a light to an industrial computer enclosure to achieve optimal lighting conditions.

Within an enclosure, the ability to direct light towards vital electronics helps improve maintenance efficiency. Distributing light throughout a cabinet is advantageous for accessing electronics or performing various tasks. The good news: an enclosure light is generally very easy to install. A few of the installation options include: a simple magnet, a screw for din rail or rack channel, or a clip mount.

“I can just buy it cheaper from someone else.”

When installing thermal management on heavy-duty computer enclosures, filters are essential in keeping particulate matter away from sensitive and expensive electronics.  

 

Fan filters help keep oil, dust, dirt, fibers, and lint outside and away from the enclosure system. However, it is common for filter maintenance to be overlooked after deploying a computer enclosure. Depending on the environment, filters should be checked once or twice a month (or more) to ensure that proper air flow is being circulated throughout the cabinet. 

We are living in a digital world! 

It is a natural progression for businesses to incorporate digital messaging into their marketing strategy. From quick service restaurants (QSRs) to college campuses to healthcare to stadiums, digital signs are popping up in new venues every day. It is no surprise that the digital signage market is valued at $16 billion(!) and continues to grow steadily each year. As more companies consider the value of digital, it is important to research the necessary steps to find the best solution before making any purchasing decisions.
