Weighing terminal (port of Valencia)

THE CHALLENGE: Ensuring Continuous Operation in Harsh Conditions
The new weighing station needed a robust and reliable solution to house control and weighing systems. With more than 1,200 weighings per day and non-stop operation 24/7 all year round, it was essential to guarantee uninterrupted performance for the electrical systems exposed to moisture, salty air, and severe temperature changes.

DELVALLE’S SOLUTION: Painted and Ventilated Storm Galva Enclosures
To meet this challenge, Delvalle supplied its Storm Galva enclosures, specially designed for outdoor use. Manufactured in galvanized steel with high-resistance RAL 7035 powder coating, these enclosures feature natural ventilation via self-ventilated louvres and IP66 protection.

Key Advantages of the Storm Galva Series in This Project:

• Anti-vandal handle with safety lock.

• Total sealing (IP66) against dust, rain, and salty environments.

• Integrated passive ventilation prevents overheating without active cooling systems.

• Custom manufacturing with adaptable interior for control system layout.

• High structural robustness (IK10) and extended service life even in coastal zones.

• Full compliance with international standards: EN 62208, EN 60529, NEMA 1, 3R, 4, and 12.

RESULTS ACHIEVED
Since installation, the Storm Galva enclosures have effectively protected the weighing station's control systems, delivering:

• Continuous, uninterrupted operation.

• Full safety for both personnel and equipment.

• Lower maintenance costs thanks to long-term durability.

• Seamless integration into the environment, with a clean and professional design.

CONCLUSION
This case reinforces Delvalle’s position as a trusted provider of solutions for critical infrastructures, backed by over 50 years of expertise in industrial, logistics, and port projects. Our experience—combined with the flexibility to manufacture custom electrical enclosures—allows us to adapt to any requirement, guaranteeing safety, robustness, and long-term reliability.
