# Industrial Specification: Control Cabinet (with PLC)

## 1. Technical Definition
Electrical enclosure housing the programmable logic controller (PLC) and associated control components for the automated feeding system

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0-55°C ambient temperature, 85-264 VAC input voltage, 0-95% relative humidity (non-condensing)**. Failure boundary: **Ambient temperature exceeding 60°C causes PLC processor thermal shutdown at 85°C junction temperature, input voltage below 85VAC causes undervoltage lockout, above 264VAC causes overvoltage protection trip at 275VAC**, Mechanism: **Semiconductor junction thermal runaway (Arrhenius equation: failure rate doubles per 10°C increase above 55°C), dielectric breakdown in power supply components at &gt;275VAC (Paschen's law breakdown voltage), condensation-induced electrochemical migration at &gt;95% RH**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Joule Heating & Thermal Resistance**:

> **Primary Equation**: $P = I^2 R = \frac{V^2}{R}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Governs heating element sizing for shrink tunnels/sealers.
