Switchrooms●

Secure switchroom housings built for critical site infrastructure●

Modulate’s switchroom containers are designed to provide a durable, secure housing solution for critical site infrastructure. Built from shipping containers and adapted for demanding industrial environments, these units create a practical enclosure for switchgear and associated equipment supplied and installed by others, while giving projects the strength, transportability and flexibility of container-based construction.

Product range●

The Switchroom Container Range offers flexible housing formats to suit different infrastructure footprints, service access requirements and site conditions. From compact enclosures to larger and widened layouts with more room for access and maintenance clearance, each unit is designed to provide a hard-wearing external shell that can be tailored to the needs of the electrical contractor, project engineer or end client.

Optional extras●

Every switchroom project has different access, servicing and environmental requirements. Modulate’s switchroom housings can be customised with practical optional extras to improve security, ventilation, thermal performance, maintenance access and overall site suitability.

POWER & LIGHTING FITOUT

Internal and external lighting provisions can be added to improve visibility, access and safe day-to-day maintenance within the switchroom housing. Basic power provisions can also be included to support servicing access and operational practicality.

CLIMATE CONTROL

The switchroom housing can be configured to better manage heat, airflow and internal operating conditions for client-supplied equipment. Insulation, split-system air conditioning and ventilation upgrades can be incorporated to help create a more stable internal environment.

UNDERFLOOR OPTIONS

Underfloor options can be tailored to suit cable management, equipment clearance and maintenance requirements. This allows the housing to better align with the installation approach and practical access needs of the project.

DOORS & WINDOWS

Door and window configurations can be adjusted to improve access, visibility and overall usability of the switchroom enclosure. Depending on the project, this can include additional doors, fixed windows, sliding windows or other access openings where required.

CABLE ACCESS & PENETRATIONS

Cable entry and service penetrations can be incorporated to suit the layout and installation requirements of the project. These provisions help ensure the housing is prepared for practical cable routing and site-specific service connections.

SECURITY & ACCESS

Security-focused upgrades can be added to help protect the switchroom housing in remote, industrial or higher-risk environments. Options may include reinforced access points, lock protection, security window protection and other site-specific security measures.

FIRE SAFETY PROVISIONS

Passive fire-related provisions and safety inclusions can be incorporated within the housing to suit project and compliance requirements. This may include fire-rated insulation options and other safety-related inclusions as needed for the intended application.

CUSTOMISED SOLUTIONS

Modulate can tailor the switchroom housing to suit specific site, operational or layout requirements. This may include allowances for externally mounted equipment, internal partitioning or cabinetry, additional service access, or larger and wider modular configurations.

National & International Delivery●

We deliver portable and modular container buildings across Australia and throughout the Pacific region including New Zealand, Papua New Guinea and New Caledonia. Delivery options are selected based on the unit dimensions and the conditions of your site.

Tilt Tray

A tilt tray truck is ideal for transporting many standard container modules and offers simple loading and unloading for straightforward access sites.

Side loader

A side loader is suited to tight, narrow or restricted sites where traditional unloading methods are not possible. Its ability to place the container module level and parallel to the truck ensures precise positioning in constrained locations.

FLAT-TOP

A flat top trailer is used for widened container units or for buildings that require crane placement on arrival. This provides excellent stability during transport and ensures the container module arrives safely and ready for installation.
