New IP67 diecast enclosures for modern industrial electronics

30-08-2022 | Rolec Enclosures | Subs & Systems

ROLEC’s new aluDOOR hinged-lid enclosures are ideal for industrial electronics in challenging environments. Applications comprise factory automation, sensors and detection, railway systems, ship technology, machine control, robotics and flow metering.

Tough but elegant, it is a go-anywhere aluminium enclosure which can be mounted on walls, bulkheads, machines and workstations. It is rated IP66, IP67 and on request, IP 69K.

The hinged lid opens 100 degrees for easier access and may be specified with or without a recess for a membrane keypad or product label. The lid screws and threaded inserts are A2 stainless steel for extra protection against corrosion.

Fitting the lid is a swift and simple process. The lid with an integrated hinge pin is pushed into place and secured with two tamperproof Torx T25 (M5) screws. Once closed, the lid is locked with two more T25 screws. All the lid and mounting screws are concealed beneath smart extruded aluminium trims.

Separate mounting screw channels ensure that aluDOOR can be installed ‘lid closed’. This safeguards the seal, a continuous foamed-in polyurethane gasket that provides superior ingress protection because it has no join. Inside the enclosure, threaded pillars enable the easy installation of PCBs, mounting plates and DIN rails.

Advanced aluDOOR is offered in ten sizes from 120mm x 90mm x 70mm to 280mm x 170mm x 90mm. The standard colour is anthracite grey (RAL 7016) with matt silver powder-coated lid trims.

Options include special colours on request, anthracite grey (RAL 7016) lid trims, a mounting plate, and EMC gasket.

Customisation options incorporate CNC machining, engraving, laser processing, display windows, digital printing of legends, logos and graphics, and assembly/installation of accessories.
