THE CHALLENGE


The goal was to find a hygienic, watertight, and durable electrical solution that would ensure food safety and withstand the demanding conditions of a meat processing plant.
In this type of facility, hygiene and reliability are paramount. The chosen solution had to endure humid environments, temperature fluctuations, and intensive chemical cleanings, without compromising food safety or electrical performance. Additionally, the following requirements were critical:

  • Total sealing against external agents.
  • A hygienic design preventing bacterial buildup.
  • Full compliance with food safety regulations.
  • Maximum durability under harsh conditions.

SOLUTION ADVANTAGES
Delvalle’s Luxor Fresh enclosures overcame all challenges thanks to their hygienic and robust design:

  • IP66 and IP69K certification, ensuring complete sealing, even during high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns.
  • 30° sloped roof and no right angles, preventing water or dirt accumulation.
  • Compliance with EHEDG and EN 1672-2 standards, ensuring each component meets the food industry's hygienic design requirements.
  • Monobloc construction, offering high mechanical resistance (IK10) and eliminating leak risks at joints or welds.
  • Optional accessories, such as height-adjustable legs, easy-to-clean plinths, and removable mounting plates, adaptable to each production line’s layout.

RESULTS ACHIEVED
The implementation of Luxor Fresh enclosures in this meat processing plant brought substantial improvements:

  • Guaranteed hygiene: Minimised cross-contamination risks with a fully washable, retention-free design.
  • Extreme durability: Resistance to chemicals and impacts significantly extends enclosure lifespan and protects critical electronics.
  • Optimised cleaning routines: Daily maintenance is faster and more efficient, reducing downtime.
  • Professional image and commitment: Delvalle enclosures enhance the perception of professionalism and commitment to food safety in front of both clients and inspection bodies.

CONCLUSION
This project clearly demonstrates how a custom solution from Delvalle, such as the Luxor Fresh enclosure, guarantees maximum hygiene, safety, and reliability in demanding environments—reinforcing the food industry's commitment to excellence and quality control.
