Why Choose the ABB VA8300 IS2/AM2 Anti-Condensation Heater?
The ABB VA8300 is an anti-condensation heater accessory designed for compatible ABB IS2 and AM2 industrial electrical enclosures. It provides internal enclosure heating to help reduce the risk of condensation forming around electrical, control and automation equipment when ambient temperature and humidity conditions fluctuate.
As part of ABB's industrial enclosure thermal-management accessory range, the VA8300 is intended to maintain a more favourable internal cabinet environment by raising the air temperature above conditions at which moisture can condense. This makes it a practical addition to control panels installed in locations subject to changing temperatures, high humidity or intermittent operation.
Supplied under ABB order code VA8300 and product group 321506-Turati - Is, the heater is designed for coordinated use with compatible ABB IS2 and AM2 cabinet systems. It is suitable for new panel builds as well as maintenance, modification and refurbishment projects where the specified VA8300 anti-condensation heater is required.

Condensation Control for Industrial Electrical Enclosures
Condensation can occur inside an electrical enclosure when humid air comes into contact with surfaces below the dew point. Moisture inside a control cabinet can adversely affect terminals, electrical contacts, electronic devices and other components, making appropriate enclosure climate management important in installations subject to changing environmental conditions.
An anti-condensation heater such as the ABB VA8300 raises the internal cabinet temperature to help prevent surfaces from reaching conditions where moisture readily condenses. When correctly selected and controlled as part of the enclosure's thermal-management system, this provides additional environmental protection for electrical and automation equipment installed within compatible IS2 and AM2 cabinets.
Typical Applications
- ABB IS2 industrial automation enclosures.
- Compatible ABB AM2 electrical cabinets.
- Industrial control and automation panels.
- PLC and instrumentation enclosures.
- Machine-control cabinets exposed to temperature and humidity changes.
- Electrical enclosures requiring condensation-control heating.
