Industrial generators – electric motors for equipment

Among the solutions that we offer in the field of electric power engineering is industrial hardware for industrial generators and electric motors for equipment, intended for production equipment. 

Industrial generators are used at production enterprises as a primary or backup power supply source. They are installed at plants, in logistics centres, at oil and gas facilities, construction sites, food industry enterprises, in the mining sector, and at critical infrastructure facilities, where interruptions in the power supply are unacceptable. 

Industrial generator control cabinets are designed for the control, protection, and automation of the generator set operation. They house controllers, switchgear, monitoring devices, and automatic transfer switch systems. To protect internal components from dust, moisture, and mechanical impacts, the cabinets are equipped with industrial locks, hinges, handles, and seals. 

Electric motors for equipment are widely used in pumping stations, ventilation systems, compressor units, conveyors, and production lines. For their reliable operation, high-quality protection of electrical and mechanical components is necessary. 

Industrial hardware is also used in motor control cabinets, frequency converter enclosures, switchgear, and electrical cabinets.

For the equipping and maintenance of industrial facilities in this field, we provide any solutions. 

• Locks are an important element in protecting equipment from unauthorised access. They ensure reliable fixation of doors and service panels, preventing accidental opening during the operation of the units. For the metal enclosures of industrial generators and electric motors for equipment, quarter-turn locks, anti-vibration locks (with extended thread height), and compression locks are widely used. In devices placed outdoors, locks with high resistance to corrosion and mechanical impacts, made of stainless steel, are of particular importance. 
• Handles ensure convenient opening of doors, covers, and hatches when carrying out maintenance of mechanisms. The comfort and safety of the maintenance personnel's work depend on their design. For generator sets and control cabinets, folding, rotary, and recessed handles, also handles with external and internal threads are used. Such industrial hardware allows saving space, protects against accidental snags, and provides convenient access to the internal units of the installations. 
• Hinges ensure reliable fastening of doors and panels. When selecting, it is necessary to take into account the weight of the door, the frequency of opening, and the operating conditions of the technical devices. Industrial hardware hinges include external hinges, concealed, and quick-release hinges. Concealed models improve the appearance of the enclosure and provide additional protection against break-ins. Quick-release designs allow for the prompt dismantling of doors during service work, reducing equipment maintenance time.
• Seals play a key role in ensuring the tightness of the metal enclosures of electric motors for equipment. They prevent the penetration of dust, moisture, and contaminants into the structures, and also reduce noise and vibration levels. For the straight edges of electrical cabinets and panels, self-adhesive strips and overlay seals are in demand. For the enclosures of industrial generators, electric motors for equipment, and control cabinets with groove openings, sponge shaped profiles of various configurations are used.

Modern industrial hardware for industrial generators and electric motors for equipment must withstand vibration loads, temperature fluctuations, and the effects of moisture and dust, maintaining operability throughout the entire service life of the equipment. 

How to choose industrial hardware for industrial generators and electric motors for equipment 

When selecting components, it is necessary to take into account the type of installation, operating conditions, and requirements for the degree of protection of the product. For equipment located indoors, locks and hinges made of zinc alloy, as well as hinges and handles made of polyamide, are used. As for the material of the seals, for industrial generators and electric motors for equipment, only EPDM profiles are used, as PVC cannot withstand constant vibrations. 

Depending on the shape of the edge of the metal enclosure and the correct selection of the seal, it will provide the required degree of protection up to IP67. 

With increased requirements for tightness, compression locks and high-quality EPDM sealing profiles should be used. 

For outdoor installation, the most reliable solution is industrial hardware made of stainless steel. 

Thanks to a wide range, we ensure a comprehensive approach to the selection of industrial hardware and meet all your needs. If you experience difficulties in selection, contact our specialists for advice.
