1. Industrial PLC Control Cabinet Customization
Based on Installation Space Constraints
If installing in narrow areas (e.g., wall-mounted in compact workshops), reduce depth to ≤300mm and optimize width/height to match wall load-bearing capacity (avoid exceeding 150kg for wall-mounted units).
For outdoor or harsh environments (e.g., dusty factories, high-humidity areas), customize with reinforced IP65/IP66 waterproof/dustproof enclosures and corrosion-resistant materials (e.g., 304 stainless steel).
Based on Internal Component Layout
If integrating multiple PLC modules, HMI screens, and wiring terminals, design internal rails and mounting plates with adjustable spacing to avoid cable clutter and ensure heat dissipation (reserve 15-20% space for airflow).
For high-voltage components (e.g., contactors, transformers), separate them from low-voltage control modules with partitioned compartments to prevent interference.
Based on Functional Expansion
Pre-install extra terminal blocks, power interfaces, and DIN rails to accommodate future additions (e.g., IoT sensors, backup power modules).
For remote monitoring needs, integrate pre-drilled holes for Ethernet/4G modules and reserve space for communication equipment.
2. Solar Water Pump Controller Panel Customization
Based on Pump Power and Solar System Scale
For high-power pumps (≥5.5kW), increase the panel size to accommodate larger inverters, fuses, and heat sinks; ensure the enclosure can dissipate heat efficiently (e.g., add ventilation grilles or cooling fans).
For off-grid systems with battery storage, customize the panel to include battery management system (BMS) interfaces and voltage/current monitoring ports.
Based on Environmental Adaptability
In areas with extreme temperatures (e.g., deserts, cold regions), use wide-temperature-range components (-40°C to 70°C) and insulate the panel or add heating elements to prevent condensation.
For coastal or saline-alkali zones, choose anti-corrosive materials (e.g., marine-grade aluminum alloy) and seal connectors to resist salt spray.
Based on Integration and Control Logic
If linking to soil moisture sensors or weather stations, add analog/digital input ports matching sensor protocols (e.g., RS485, LoRa).
For multi-pump systems, customize the panel to support parallel/sequential pump control and automatic load balancing between solar panels and grid backup (if applicable).
3. General Customization Tips
Standardization of Key Interfaces: Ensure customized sizes retain standard mounting hole positions (e.g., DIN rail compatibility for PLC cabinets) to simplify on-site installation.
Cost-Benefit Balance: Avoid over-customization (e.g., overly complex enclosures) if basic standard sizes meet 80% of needs; prioritize critical adjustments (e.g., waterproofing, space for expansion).
Compliance with Certifications: Ensure custom designs meet local electrical standards (e.g., UL, CE, CCC) to avoid regulatory issues.
