ISO 40 FT Shelter

ISO 40 FT shelters are container-based mobile cabin solutions developed for system integrations requiring larger internal volumes. Their structure, suitable for the placement of large electronic systems, operator areas, and technical equipment, provides an ideal infrastructure for mobile command centres, technical laboratories, and large-scale field systems.

Technical Specifications

External Dimensions (L×W×H)12200 × 2440 × 2440 mm
Internal Dimensions (L×W×H)12035 × 2275 × 2275 mm
Total Weight10000 kg
Load Capacity6750 kg

Overview

ISO 40 FT Shelter is a large-volume mobile shelter platform approximately 12 meters long, compliant with the ISO 668 container standard. It combines a large interior volume with intermodal transportability and is preferred for large command and control centres, mobile medical stations and surgical suites, surgical support, mobile headquarters and large electronic equipment cabins. The Ozben Defence ISO 40 FT platform is deployable worldwide through the intermodal logistics network in both military and dual-use scenarios.

Key Features

  • Large interior volume — Approximately 60 to 70 m³, allowing multi-station workstations, multiple electronic racks, map tables and large interior layouts such as examination or operating tables.
  • ISO 668-compliant corner castings — Intermodal transportability with standard container equipment.
  • High-capacity HVAC — Cooling and heating package sized to handle the large interior volume and electronic heat load.
  • OZFIL CBRN filtration package — Optional positive-pressure collective protection.
  • EMI/EMC shielding — MIL-STD-461G-compliant option for sensitive equipment.
  • Advanced electrical infrastructure — Interior distribution panel, UPS option, generator interface.

Construction

The large sandwich-panel shell is built with a corrosion-resistant outer skin and a low-thermal-conductivity core. The floor is sized to carry equipment and personnel loads. Doors, service hatches and cable penetrations are gasket-sealed. The platform can be loaded onto a standard 40 ft container carrier trailer, a ship or a suitable aircraft cargo bay without special equipment. On site, it is brought to a horizontal position with the leveling system.

International Standards

  • ISO 668 — Container dimensions and corner castings.
  • NATO STANAG 2413 — Mobile shelter design requirements.
  • NATO STANAG 4447 — CBRN-protected collective protection.
  • MIL-STD-810H — Environmental endurance.
  • MIL-STD-461G — Electromagnetic compatibility.

Applications

  • Large command and control and communications centres.
  • Mobile field hospitals, surgical suites, medical stations and laboratories.
  • Brigade-level mobile headquarters.
  • Large electronic warfare and signals intelligence cabins.
  • Overseas disaster response and peacetime support units.

Configuration and RFQ

The interior layout, HVAC and electrical capacity, EMI/EMC shielding and CBRN packages of the ISO 40 FT platform are defined per project based on the user's mission profile and deployment scenario. The Özben engineering team acts as a single point of contact through concept design, production, site installation and acceptance. For a detailed RFQ, please contact our engineering team.
