The 1554 and 1555F families

hammond 1554 1555F 1
Our 1554 family is available with a solid grey, a clear or a smoked lid. Its 1555 sister family features a solid styled lid with a recess for a membrane keypad or a label. The 1555F range has a flanged lid to facilitate surface mounting and the base is styled to accept membrane keypads and other components. The requirement for environmentally sealed enclosures continues to expand as sub-systems and HMI units are installed in harsh environments throughout the factory floor and beyond.

Our polycarbonate 1554/1555 IP68 sealed enclosures are available in 33 sizes from 52mm x 50mm x 40mm to 299mm x 240mm x 120mm. The polycarbonate versions have cUL and UL 508A listing (File # E65324), and are tested to IP68 (NEMA Type 4, 4X, 6, 6P, 12 and 13). The family is also available moulded in lower cost UL94-HB ABS, sealed to IP66 and designed for general purpose applications, primarily indoors.

The difference between the 1554 and the 1555 is in the lid design. The 1554 range has an opaque RAL 7035 grey flat lid or a clear or smoked flat lid on a RAL 7035 grey base. The 1555 enclosures have a styled RAL 7035 opaque lid, with a recess suitable for membrane keyboards, labels or other I/O indicators and panel components.
