What are the advantages and disadvantages of aluminum control panel enclosures compared to stainless? I've only worked with one large, heavy gauge aluminum enclosure that was custom built and found it lighter, cheaper and way easier to drill and cut. Lost track of it though and don't know how it held up. Also heard that one or the other conducts heat better than the other. Current site will expose panels to washdown including chemical washdown. What's the big downside to aluminum? Other factors to consider?
