Insulated Wall Mounting Cabinets – Superpolyrel400: Phased out
After the launch of the PolySafe multipurpose polyester enclosures in 2000, the Superpolyrel 300 was phased out. Also, the Superpolyrel 400 is no longer available. With the PolySafe depth extension kit and the EH3-great depth we offer alternative solutions. As of November 1st 2007 we can no longer accept any new order for the complete Superpolyrel range. Please make arrangements for this transition.

Ventilation
The electrical operating elements built into a control enclosure, such as power converters, transformers, inductance coils, contactors, relays, etc., emit dissipation heat into the surrounding air.
If this dissipation heat is not removed, it may cause the temperature inside the enclosure to exceed the temperature permissible for electrical equipment. This poses a hazard to, in particular, electronic components.
The heat must therefore be removed to avoid malfunction and, ultimately, idle time. Natural aeration (by domes, gills, etc.) is not recommended, as the risk of contamination is very high and, in addition, the degree of protection of the enclosure cannot be maintained.
In such cases, forced aeration with appropriate built-in filters is the answer. In this system, the cooler ambient air is sucked by a fan into the lower part of the control enclosure, simultaneously filtered, and then blown into the body of the enclosure.
Here the air absorbs the dissipated heat and is then removed via an exhaust filter located in the upper part of the enclosure. An overpressure created simultaneously in the enclosure prevents dust particles penetrating any openings in the housing. Removing warm air by suction is not recommended, as the partial vacuum created within the enclosure would neutralise the dust protective effect.
Our filter fans are conform relevant CE regulations.
Contact-Voltage proof to DIN 31001. Resistance to foreign bodies and water to IP54 (EN 60529) is achieved by combining a horizontal air flow with a gasket delivered as a standard.
Heating
- Small heating units for enclosures are important accessories for guaranteeing operational safety of control and distribution units

UC-Cabinet – Subterranean enclosures
As we share the same space with an ever increasing number of people, public areas like streets, squares and parks will be used with increasing intensity, creating a strong demand for solutions that manage to avoid obstacles at street level as much as possible.
GE Power Protection, being a major supplier of street level distribution switchboxes for telecommunications, energy and CATV distribution connectivity, has developed UC-Cabinet enclosures for this purpose. UC-Cabinet enclosures are switchboxes that are installed underground and are suitable for installing all kinds of equipment for permanent or temporary connectivity. The distinguishing characteristic of UC-Cabinet enclosures is that they can remain underground both in active and passive condition, which means that they do not constitute any obstacle whatsoever.
These UC-Cabinet enclosures can be employed, among other applications, for temporary mains hook-ups for the benefit of markets, fairs or other events. However, they are also eminently suitable for permanent connections, low voltage energy distribution, glass fibre connections for a variety of IT related applications, or for installing supporting equipment for mobile telephony.
The tops of the underground UC-Cabinet enclosures can be finished in such a way that they become an aesthetically pleasing part of their surroundings.
UC-Cabinet – The principle of the diving Bell
The principle of the UC-Cabinet enclosure is based on the same principle as the diving bell.
A diving bell is a 5-walled, hermetically sealed compartment.
Under normal conditions, the opening is at the bottom, so that in case of a rising water table the underside is closed off completely by water.
As the water table rises, the air present in the sealed unit will be compressed until an equilibrium is reached between the air pressure and the force exerted by the rising water, at which point the water will rise no further (Boyle’s Law).
Even if the UC-Cabinet enclosure becomes fully immersed in water, for example in the case of flooding, heavy rains etc. the air bubble trapped in the sealed compartment will remain large enough to prevent the plastic enclosures in which the equipment has been installed from coming into contact with water.
