Wider choice of colours for universal enclosures

METCASE’s UNICASE instrument enclosures are now offered in traffic white (RAL 9016) as standard, complementing the existing light grey (RAL 7035) and black (RAL 9005) options. Custom colours are also available on request.

The versatile UNICASE is ideal for a wide range of applications, including measuring and control, feedback control, peripheral devices and interfaces, switch boxes, modems, and medical and laboratory technology.

These popular aluminium enclosures can be assembled and disassembled quickly and easily – speeding up installations, inspection and maintenance. Removing the U-shaped top permits rapid access to the electronics. PCBs slide in and out of guide rails in the chassis and assembly extrusions. Anodised front and rear panels are supplied (along with four push-in non-slip rubber feet for the base). The front panel is recessed to protect controls.

The company manufactures the enclosure in ten standard sizes from 185mm x 180mm x 65mm to 250mm x 300mm x 50mm.

Accessories include PCB fixing screws and a white polyamide (PA 2200) assembly tool that locates the blue threaded nut holders in the extrusion profiles, aligning them faultlessly with the top and base cover screws for faster installation.

The company can supply UNICASE in fully customised form. Services include custom sizes (heights, widths, depths), custom front panels, CNC machining, fixings and inserts, painting and finishing, and photo-quality digital printing of legends, logos and graphics.
