Key Features
Certified for Field Deployment
The Splicing Habitat is built on a modified 40′ ISO shipping container, independently assessed and RPEQ-certified using full Finite Element Analysis.
The structure is verified for reach stacker and side loader crane operations, road transit at 0.8g longitudinal and 0.5g transverse, and wind loading to Region D conditions. Designed for trench-side deployment over a concrete slab with cable entry at both ends
Cable Handling and Workspace
The interior features three full-length 200mm I-beam monorail bays with 18 chain block and push trolley hoist stations, rated at 500kg per bay and 1,000kg total per monorail, classified A02 to AS5246.1.
Cold room insulated sandwich panel lines all walls, the ceiling, and access doors to maintain a controlled internal environment. Barn doors at each end provide sealed cable access, with dedicated personnel doors at both entries.
Operating Controls
The habitat runs dual 10kW hi-wall split systems with a variable-speed outside air fan delivering 140 L/s during normal activities and automatically ramping to 350 L/s during lead jointing.
A 160mm articulating fume extraction arm with HEPA H12 and G4 pre-filtration manages airborne contaminants. A Bluetooth temperature and humidity data logger provides real-time environmental monitoring.
