Stainless Steel Outdoor Power Cabinet: Key Features & Typical Use
Six Sizes for Motor and Pump Duty
The range runs from XLSH-6010035 at 600 x 1000 x 350 mm up to XLSH-8018040 at 800 x 1800 x 400 mm, which covers starter panels for pumps, fans, conveyors and process machinery. Because the cabinet is sized in standard steps, a site with several different motor ratings can be standardised on one enclosure family.Stainless Shell for Outdoor Industrial Air
201 or 304 stainless steel is specified because outdoor industrial air contains a mixture of moisture, dust and chemical traces that degrade painted steel. The stainless shell resists that combination and keeps its dimensional accuracy, so the door continues to seal and the internal mounting plate stays square over a long service life.Side Ventilation and a Double-Slope Rain Cap
Contactor and starter losses are dissipated through ventilation holes on the side faces, where driving rain is least likely to enter, and the double-slope rain cap channels water away from the door opening instead of letting it collect on a flat top. The enclosure is supplied with built-in sealing strips for water, rain and dust resistance.Base Plate That Can Be Serviced
A detachable mounting base plate carries the starters, contactors, protection relays and monitoring equipment, so the assembly can be wired and tested before it goes into the shell. Servicing on an outdoor site — where weather and access both limit working time — is then a matter of swapping or withdrawing a prepared assembly.Stainless Steel Outdoor Power Cabinet Specifications & Technical Data

XLSH — Stainless Steel Outdoor Power Cabinet for Industrial Sites
Outdoor power cabinets fail from the outside in. Moisture, dust and chemical traces in industrial air attack the shell first, then the door seal, then the components behind it. The XLSH answers that with a 201 or 304 stainless steel body and built-in sealing strips, so the cabinet can be installed beside a pump set, a conveyor or a process unit without a shelter.In tender documents this equipment appears as an outdoor power cabinet, a stainless steel motor starter enclosure or a weatherproof control cabinet, and it is compared with painted steel cabinets and with plastic outdoor boxes. Outdoor failures usually start at the door seal and the gland plate, so the questions worth asking a manufacturer are which grade of stainless steel is used and how the ventilation openings are positioned relative to the prevailing weather.Six sizes are offered from 600 x 1000 x 350 mm to 800 x 1800 x 400 mm, covering starter and distribution panels for motors, pumps and machinery. Ventilation holes are placed on the side faces and a double-slope rain cap sheds water away from the door, so heat leaves the enclosure without letting weather in.Inside, a detachable mounting base plate carries the contactors, protection relays and monitoring equipment, allowing the assembly to be wired and tested before installation. The cabinet accepts knockouts, custom printing and complete-set assembly with the component brands your project specifies.Factory-Direct Stainless Steel Outdoor Power Cabinet Manufacturer & OEM / ODM
We Manufacture, You Brand
LYE Technology (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd. is a national high-tech enterprise and manufacturer in Wenzhou, China: sheet-metal fabrication, welding, powder coating, busbar machining and final assembly run on our own factory lines, and every unit is function-tested before it leaves the works. A XLSH Stainless Steel Outdoor Power Cabinet that reaches your site carries the routine test behind it, not just the rating on the nameplate.We are one of the Top 10 Brands of China's small power distribution boxes and a drafter of national standards in this category, and we hold ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001, CCC, CE and TUV certification. Because we are the manufacturer rather than a trading company, our sales engineers quote from your drawing in factory-direct terms, and OEM or ODM work is produced on the same lines as our standard products.For the XLSH we fabricate and weld the stainless enclosure in our own works, so a specific plinth, bracket or gland arrangement is a drawing change rather than a new product.- OEM branding — custom colours, laser marking and your own project or retail packaging, applied at the factory.
- ODM options — ratings, configurations and internal layouts built around your drawings or single-line diagram.
- Certification — ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001, CCC, CE and TUV, with test documents supplied per project.
- MOQ — flexible quantities for a project or a trial order, with mixed types welcome in one shipment.

Outdoor installation conditions usually decide the specification for this cabinet. These are the points we confirm before production.
- Confirm the motor or machinery loads so the cabinet size and internal layout can be planned.
- Confirm the environment, including salt, chemical or heavy dust exposure, to select 201 or 304 stainless steel.
- Confirm the mounting position, plinth or bracket arrangement and the cable entry direction.
- Confirm the degree of protection required and whether additional shielding is needed.
- Send the single-line diagram, load list, site photographs and ambient conditions.
- Approve the drawing, then production, inspection and dispatch with documentation.

What is a stainless steel outdoor power cabinet?
It is a weatherproof floor-standing enclosure used for outdoor low-voltage power distribution and motor control, housing starters, contactors, protection relays and monitoring equipment. The XLSH is fabricated from 201 or 304 grade stainless steel in six sizes from 600 x 1000 x 350 mm to 800 x 1800 x 400 mm, with side ventilation, a double-slope rain cap and a detachable mounting base plate.What is an outdoor power cabinet used for?
It is used where a motor or process load has to be started and protected at the point of use rather than from inside a building: pumps and boreholes, fans and cooling towers, conveyors, water treatment plant, mine and quarry installations, and outdoor industrial areas where running cable back to a plant room would be impractical.How does an outdoor cabinet keep rain out while staying cool?
By separating where air enters from where water is likely to arrive. Ventilation holes are placed on the side faces rather than the top or the door, and a double-slope rain cap sheds water away from the opening so it cannot run in when the door is held open. Built-in sealing strips provide the remaining protection, which is why these cabinets can be installed without building a canopy over them.Who manufactures stainless steel outdoor cabinets?
Most suppliers in this category are sheet-metal manufacturers who also build indoor cabinets and switchgear, so the variable is the material and the sealing detail rather than the basic design. Ask which grade of stainless steel is actually supplied, whether the enclosure is welded and passivated in house, and how the plinth or bracket arrangement is set against your mounting position. LYE manufactures the XLSH in Wenzhou and holds ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001, CCC, CE and TUV certification.How much does a stainless steel outdoor cabinet cost?
Indicative factory-direct pricing is roughly US$300 to US$3,000 per cabinet, depending on the size, the grade of stainless steel, the internal equipment assembly and the quantity ordered. Because stainless steel is the dominant material cost and the price gap between 201 and 304 is significant, stating the environment at enquiry stage avoids paying for a grade the site does not need.

Use a distribution box for final circuits and compact branch protection; use a cabinet when the project needs larger incoming capacity, more feeder groups, metering, busbars or greater internal separation. The final choice should be checked against the single-line diagram, device list, available installation space and local project rules.
Provide the device schedule, circuit quantity, component dimensions, cable-entry direction, mounting method and required spare capacity. LYE also reviews door clearance, bending radius, heat-producing devices and the usable depth behind the mounting plate before confirming an enclosure size.
Start with the actual exposure to dust, rain, cleaning water and accidental contact rather than choosing the highest number by default. Cable entries, ventilation, door seals and installation workmanship affect the finished assembly, so the target rating and verification basis must be confirmed for the specific product and project.
Coated or galvanized steel is commonly considered for general indoor service, stainless steel for humid or corrosive locations, and engineering plastic for lightweight non-metallic applications. Material grade, thickness, UV exposure, chemical contact and earthing requirements must be confirmed against the installation environment.
Share the component heat load, ambient temperature, solar exposure, duty cycle and allowable internal temperature. LYE can then review enclosure volume, spacing, ventilation or fan provisions, sun shields, heaters or drainage details; the final thermal design remains tied to the installed equipment and site conditions.
Yes. A dimensioned drawing is preferred, but a physical sample and clear reference photographs can also start the review. Material, thickness, openings, hardware, finish, labels, inspection points and packing are recorded before sampling or repeat production.
PDF and common 2D CAD drawings are suitable for most enclosure enquiries, while 3D files can help with complex assemblies. Include a revision number, units, tolerances and component references; file compatibility and any missing production information will be confirmed during review.
A sample or first article can be arranged for a new or customized product. The approval plan should identify dimensions, openings, fit, appearance, hardware, labels and packaging, together with the sample cost and timing agreed for the actual order.
Available documents may include approved drawings, packing lists, dimensional or appearance inspection records, product data and certificates applicable to the confirmed model. Destination-specific declarations or third-party testing must be requested before order placement so availability and scope can be verified.
Lead time is confirmed after the product scope, quantity, sample requirement and finish are known. Packing is reviewed against product weight, surface protection, destination and shipping method; if an issue is found after delivery, send the order reference, label, photographs and quantity affected so it can be traced and reviewed.
