SOLID-BOX – ENCLOSURES FOR INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONICS

Robust, watertight and stylish at the same time! Our new SOLID-BOX enclosures satisfy all the requirements that modern electronic/electrical housings have to meet in industrial environments, as well as in protected outdoor areas.

This highly attractive range of industrial enclosures features a modern highly polished surface finish, and flush design trims in the top part which concealed all of the fixing screws. SOLID-BOX is offered in a range of three sizes in light grey, RAL 7035 or anthracite, RAL 7016.

Safety in harsh environments is ensured by the high IP 66/IP 67 protection class, IK08 impact protection and the flame-retardant V-0 material from 1.5 mm and thicker, with increased heat distortion temperature (Vicat/B 120 = 110 °C). Furthermore, the flame resistance is chlorine- and bromine-free.

Depending on the application, the enclosures can be individually fitted with accessories, e.g. a hinge set as a "top panel retention device" for service and maintenance work, enclosure feet for reliable positioning when using the enclosures for desktop applications, cable glands for the vibration-free and non-twist insertion of cables – available with/without pressure compensation to protect sensitive electronics, and much more.
