Custom IP66 Racks Delivered to WA Mines in Record Time

State: WA
Date: January 2020

The Problem:

Mining operations in Western Australia operate in some of the harshest conditions, with extreme temperatures, dust, and moisture creating challenges for housing sensitive equipment. The client required a set of custom-built racks that could:

  • Protect electrical and networking components from dust, heat, and environmental exposure.
  • Maintain stable internal temperatures to prevent system failures in remote locations.
  • Be delivered within four weeks to align with scheduled site installations.

Delays in deployment could result in disruptions to operations, making fast delivery just as critical as the durability of the racks themselves.

Our Solution:

PSS designed and manufactured eight custom 18RU 800×800 IP66-rated racks, built specifically for the demands of mining environments. Each unit featured:

The rack was designed locally to ensure ensuring strict quality control and rapid production turnaround. Additionally, detailed engineering drawings were provided to the client during the design phase, allowing for precise execution.

The Result:

All racks were completed and dispatched within the required four-week timeframe, arriving at the mining sites ready for immediate installation. The quick turnaround ensured:

  • On-time deployment, preventing any delays in operational schedules.
  • Seamless integration with existing systems, thanks to a clear and collaborative design process.
  • Reliable protection for critical equipment in the extreme conditions of remote WA mine sites.

Key Highlights

  • Eight custom 18RU IP66 racks designed and built within four weeks.
  • Integrated 600W air-conditioning units for heat control.
  • Locally manufactured for fast turnaround and high-quality execution.
