Pacific Fishermen Shipyard is a full-service shipyard that offers a variety of custom fabrication solutions for many aspects of boat maintenance and restoration. The fabrication process often requires the shipyard to install reliable electrical enclosures to protect controls, power supplies with LEDs, timers for alarm systems, contractors for fish pumps, PLC controllers and many other types of electrical components that are part of onboard systems.
Most Pacific Fishermen Shipyard customers operate vessels in harsh environments that are constantly exposed to salt water, ultraviolet rays and severe weather with heavy rains. Therefore, electrical equipment must be properly protected in order to function reliably. This is particularly important for a customer vessel that would be operating in the notoriously stormy Bering Sea, with controls placed on the ship’s mast. The Bering Sea is known for its harsh weather conditions, with frost that persists nearly year-round during its rainy, cool summers, and snowy winters. In order to endure the saltwater, frost, rain, snow, high winds, storms, and temperatures that reach -31° to -49°F, electrical systems onboard the vessel required reliable protection.
To meet those demanding needs, Pacific Fishermen Shipyard uses fiberglass J Series enclosures from Stahlin® and has been doing so since the early 1980’s. They are an excellent choice for Pacific Fishermen Shipyard’s custom fabrication designs because fiberglass material can be easily configured with cutouts and modifications to make a custom finished product.
Stahlin® J Series Enclosures are designed for diverse applications associated with extremely corrosive environments and are ideal for use as instrument housings and junction boxes.
