Which enclosures are DNV certified for use on marine vessels?
Short answer
For marine vessels and other offshore installations, our most suitable solutions are the TK PC, Abox-i PC and Abox-i SL ranges. These are DNV certified, meaning they comply with the world's leading classification society for the maritime industry. They offer up to IP 66 ingress protection, preventing water and dust from entering the system, and they are made of polycarbonate, so they withstand exposure to UV light and extreme weather conditions. They are also highly resistant to mechanical stress.

Electrical installations and wiring in marine vessels, like many offshore installations, need to be protected from harsh environmental conditions. Splashes of salt water can cause corrosion, as can condensate water.
When it comes to reliability and robustness, these series offer up to IP 66 ingress protection, preventing water and dust from entering the system. They are made of polycarbonate (PC), so they can withstand exposure to UV light as well as extreme weather conditions, and they are highly resistant to mechanical stress.
