The FBE modular platform includes the enclosure lid, an auxiliary and base equipment enclosure, a battery expansion enclosure, and various mounting options. The enclosure can be customized according to climate-control needs with the addition of direct air cooling, a heat exchanger, or an air conditioner. Alpha offers various standard configurations, but can also custom design an enclosure to meet specific customer needs.

Installation errors are kept to a minimum since every enclosure is consistent in appearance, wiring, and function. By ensuring reliable operation from day one, we help customers minimize long-term maintenance, while reducing installation time and cost," adds Heidenreich.
