Application definition
We document indoor or outdoor placement, dust, spray, corrosion, ambient limits and cleaning methods. This establishes the conditions against which the chosen enclosure type, material, sealing system and finish should be checked.
Configuration review
Mounting-panel area, door swing, installed depth, bend radius, gland placement and service clearances are considered together. The review helps prevent a nominally correct box size from creating assembly or maintenance constraints.
Thermal assessment
Component losses, duty cycle, solar loading and target internal temperature inform the cooling approach. Ventilation, closed-loop cooling and heaters are treated as application choices, not accessories added after layout.
