As core energy storage equipment, energy storage cabinets require industrial locks to ensure equipment safety and operational efficiency, while also facing the challenge of durability in unstable external environments. The Gaavin team has developed a comprehensive solution, from industrial locks to accessories, to address the pain points of energy storage cabinet locks (locking strength, installation resistance, salt spray corrosion, etc.), helping the energy storage industry achieve its dual goals of safety and energy efficiency.
Energy storage cabinet
I.The dual needs of energy storage cabinet locks
| Dimensions | Key Pain Points in Locking Control |
|---|---|
| Security and Maintenance | Insufficient locking strength, salt spray corrosion, and linkage interference threaten the physical safety of equipment and operational efficiency. |
| Environmental Adaptability | Outdoor high salt spray and high humidity environments place extremely high demands on the weather resistance of industrial lock components. |
II. Industry Pain Points: Three Major Shortcomings of Traditional Mechanical Locks
| Pain Point Categor | Specific Manifestations | Requirements for Locking Systems |
|---|---|---|
| Low Security | Mechanical locks are mostly double-click lock cylinders, keys are easily copied, and devices are easily opened illegally. | Electronic locking technology with “anti-copying and high anti-theft” features is required to eliminate the risk of double-clicking. |
| Electric Shock Risk | If a mechanical lock is damaged or not closed after maintenance, the internal circuitry of the charging station may be exposed, causing electric shock to personnel. | Locks must have a high protection level and be able to provide real-time feedback on the switch status to avoid the risk of exposed circuitry. |
| Control difficulties | Mechanical locks cannot record “who, when, and which lock was opened,” making traceability and control difficult for managers. | Intelligent control functions need to be integrated to enable the recording, querying, and traceability of lock opening and closing. |
III. Gaavin Solutions: Enabling Electronic Lock Control for All Scenarios
Gaavin integrates industrial lock component technology to launch combined solutions for outdoor energy storage cabinets and new energy charging piles, comprehensively addressing industry pain points:
| Product Model | Material & Process | Core Locking Value | Pain Point Solutions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Linkage Guide | Industrial-grade alloy material | Optimized guide structure, reduces installation friction resistance, and provides accurate guidance for industrial locks | High installation friction resistance |
| Fixed Buckle | High-strength steel, precision slotted design | Increased slotting space, avoids linkage interference, and enhances the structural compatibility of the lock system | Linkage interference risk |
| Hinge | Salt spray resistant treatment | Meets the industrial lock requirements in high salt spray environments, ensuring long-term corrosion resistance and no deformation of the hinge | Poor salt spray corrosion resistance |
| Linkage | High-toughness alloy material | Improves linkage strength, solves the problem of deformation at multiple locking points, and strengthens the mechanical support of the lock system | Insufficient locking strength |
IV. Solution Value: From "Safety Guarantee" to "High Cost-Effectiveness"
- Enhanced Security: Electronic lock cylinders are anti-copying + IP65 protection rating, completely eliminating the security risks of mechanical locks being “easy to open and easily damaged,” and eliminating the risk of electric shock;
- Improved Cost-Effectiveness: Gaavin provides customers with the best cost-effective solutions through efficient R&D and manufacturing. Gaavin’s excellent reputation for reducing costs and increasing efficiency for customers has consistently placed it at the forefront of the industry;
- Strong Scenario Adaptability: From the main charging pile equipment to the supporting electrical cabinet, Gaavin’s combination solutions of industrial locks, hinges, and linkages can be adapted to charging pile products from different manufacturers and of different specifications, achieving both standardization and customization coverage.
