Cleaning and dust removal of electrical cabinets

Usually 1 to 3 hours per cabinet, depending on its size, accessibility and how dirty it is. For a batch of cabinets or a complete substation, we plan the job over one or more days, in line with your production constraints.

Allow €200 to €500 excl. VAT for a small job of 1 to 2 hours. The price of a larger job depends on the number of cabinets, their access and the isolation arrangements. The quote is free and without obligation.

Compressed air moves dust to other parts of the cabinet or installation without removing it. Vacuuming does not lift greasy or encrusted deposits. Dry ice removes deposits even in complex areas (contactors, relays, busbars) without dismantling and without moisture.

Yes, after the zone has been declassified by your site, according to your work permit procedure. The risk related to static electricity is analysed beforehand with your safety managers.

CO₂ is non-conductive and does not create an electrical risk in itself. However, every job requires a prior risk assessment under the Belgian electrical regulations (RGIE). Icetec assesses each situation with your electrical manager. Our technicians do not hold the BA4/BA5 qualification: live work is therefore only possible in the presence of a qualified operator from your team. In many industrial cases, a partial shutdown is enough.

Not if the settings are correctly adjusted. Pressure is reduced for areas with sensitive components, PCBs, relays, capacitors. A test is carried out on the most delicate parts before the full job.

Depending on the industrial environment, we recommend a job once a year or every two years. Very dusty environments (cement works, woodworking, metallurgy) need more frequent cleaning. A preventive maintenance contract can be set up with Icetec.

Yes. Icetec provides a full job report after each cleaning: date, equipment treated, observations and recommendations, useful for your electrical maintenance log and compliance audits.
