AWARD-WINNING BLOB – WIRED ENCLOSURES, WILD DESIGNS!

It’s immediately obvious that BLOB is no normal enclosure range. Its memorable name and three unusual enclosure shapes bend the unwritten rule that standard housings shouldn’t be too distinctive.

However, all this apparent eccentricity is based on good solid design logic. Each of the three BLOB enclosures – CONTROL, PANEL and UNIT – is amorphously shaped, guiding users’ hands instinctively towards the controls. In the past, we’ve described this as ‘teach by touch’.

And even though each shape is a mass of curves, these ABS (UL 94 HB) enclosures can still be specified for wired electronics – they can still accept cable glands. Where you fix the cable(s) is entirely up to you because these enclosures can be used in lots of different grasp positions.

Each of the three shapes has a recessed operating area. IP 54 protection is optional. Inside, there are screw pillars for PCBs. Accessories include cable glands for wire diameters of Ø 3.4 - 4.2 mm, Ø 4.2 - 5.0 mm and Ø 5.0 - 5.9 mm.

The standard colours are off-white (RAL 9002) and lava, which are both surprisingly restrained given the idiosyncratic shape of these enclosures. But if you want BLOB in a colour as unusual as the shapes, then please get in touch! Like other OKW enclosures, BLOB can be specified in a broad spectrum of custom colours – plus a whole range of different textures and finishes thanks to our recently extended range of lacquering options.
