In Australia’s food and beverage sector, hygiene is a baseline requirement, not a differentiator. Yet as energy costs continue to rise and compliance standards tighten, manufacturers must also focus on operational efficiency, system reliability, and long-term sustainability.
Rittal’s Hygienic Design (HD) enclosures, combined with its advanced Blue e+ cooling technology, offer a system-based approach that supports both hygiene and performance. Designed specifically for food production environments, these solutions address the dual challenge of protecting sensitive electronics and reducing energy consumption, without compromising safety or uptime.
Efficient Cooling for Hygiene-Critical Zones
Automation and control electronics located in washdown areas, packing lines or high-humidity zones require consistent, reliable cooling to perform at their best. Variability in ambient conditions and frequent cleaning cycles make standard cooling systems inadequate for the task.
Rittal’s Blue e+ cooling units are engineered to perform in these harsh environments, offering:
At the core of Blue e+ is intelligent hybrid technology that dynamically adjusts cooling output in response to real-time thermal load, delivering maximum efficiency across changing conditions.
System Integration Through Digital Engineering
Modern food manufacturing facilities require infrastructure that is not only hygienic but also digitally connected and easy to maintain. Rittal HD enclosures integrate seamlessly with digital engineering platforms:
EPLAN ProPanel
These tools help engineering teams build smarter, maintain faster, and reduce risks — without disrupting ongoing production.
Built for Australia’s Food Industry
From dairy and poultry to seafood and ready-meal facilities, Rittal’s HD enclosures with Blue e+ cooling are proven in the field and supported locally across Australia.
