Designed for OEMs and end users in the electrical and electronic engineering markets, Hylec-APL’s new range of all weather enclosures complement its existing range of connectors, terminal blocks and junction boxes, and achieves protection up to IP67.
The range of enclosures is available as a standard (no holes) unit or with one to four pre-moulded holes in the top, suitable for fitting 22mm switches. The high ingress protection makes them suitable for many external applications as well as indoor applications which will be subjected to wash down environments. The enclosures have a wall thickness of up to 5mm which allows them to substitute for metal enclosures in many situations.
The design includes a feature for easy mounting, optional snap-on flange brackets and DIN-rail brackets are available for all enclosure sizes. This ensures that the enclosure is not compromised by the drilling of fixing holes in the base for the fixing brackets. All the enclosures incorporate vertical PCB mounting support slots as well as horizontal self tapping screw supports. They are delivered complete with 2 x M20 threaded cable gland entry.
Available in a range of flame retardant materials, including polycarbonate, each enclosure size can be specified as a compact or deep base version. The compact version allows for easy installation in applications with limited space while the deep base version provides sufficient internal space to fit a horizontally mounted PCB and still have space for switch contact blocks above. All products comply fully with ROHS and REACH standards.
