Handheld plastic cases

19 November 2014 Enclosures, Racks, Cabinets & Panel Products

OKW has completed its range of Datec-Compact outdoor handheld enclosures by adding new sizes S and L to the existing M models. This product range is designed for mobile applications in harsh environments, such as data recording and transfer, measuring and control, and stock and sales logging. Their dimensions are 136 x 74 x 32 mm (S), 172 x 92 x 39 mm (M) and 206 x 110 x 47 mm (L).

All three sizes can be specified with or without gold-plated integrated contacts (<15 A, 1-pole) which provide an all-in-one solution for charging and data transfer. Versions with battery compartments – 3 x 1,5 V AAA (size S) or 2 x 1,5 V AA (sizes M and L) – provide slots for SD cards and USB connectors.

Highly robust, Datec-Compact is rated to IP65, manufactured from UV-stable ASA+PC-FR (UL 94 V-0) and assembled using tamper-proof Torx T10 screws. They are available in off-white and lava grey (special colours on request) and can be accessorised with desk stations and wall holders.

Nickel-plated battery clips are also available, along with spare contacts, non-slip pads, self-tapping screws for mounting printed circuit boards and a Torx T10 screwdriver. Customising services include CNC milling and drilling, printing or engraving of legends and logos, special finishes, keypads and assembly.
