IP68 sealed enclosures from Hammond Manufacturing

29 June 2022 Enclosures, Racks, Cabinets & Panel Products

Hammond Manufacturing has introduced the 1551W series, IP68 sealed versions of its popular 1551 miniature enclosure family. Launched in an initial five sizes, all available with a plain or flanged lid, the UL94-V0 polycarbonate enclosures are suitable for use inside or outside. They are available in black and grey with a soft texture finish.

All enclosures are fitted with PCB stand-offs in the base and the preformed silicone sealing gasket provides excellent protection against the ingress of dust or water, protecting the housed electronics to a rating of IP68.

The initial five sizes range from 60 x 35 x 22 mm to 100 x 59 x 25 mm. The flanged lid versions make mounting to any surface a simple and easy process and provide a degree of tamper resistance by preventing access to the lid and base securing screws.

The rectangular and round vented 1551V versions are designed to house sensors and small sub-systems installed in the manufacturing environment. One of their key features is the snap-fit closure that allows repeated opening and closing without tools, thereby maximising the internal space for PCBs by eliminating screw fixings to secure the cover to the base. They feature ventilation slots on all four vertical faces of the cover and wall mounting slots and a 15 mm cable knock-out in the base. All rectangular and round versions are also available in an unvented style in all sizes.
