Hammond Electronics 1550 expanded range small die-cast aluminium enclosures

A further nine sizes have been added to the 1550 range of industry standard-sized small die-cast aluminium enclosures that provide mechanical protection and EMC attenuation.

The tapped holes and machine screws used to secure the lid make them suitable for use where interior access will be required on a regular basis in a wide variety of applications.

Available with a natural or black epoxy powder-coated finish, the units are supplied in two versions: standard and watertight. The sizes range from 60 x 55 x 26 mm to 275 x 175 x 63 mm; the standard units are sealed to IP54. The 1550 W watertight versions are supplied with a separate compressible self-adhesive gasket which, when fitted between the lid and the base, provides dust and water sealing to IP66, enabling them to be used in both benign and hostile environments.

The thin-wall aluminium enclosures have high-impact strength but are also easily drilled and punched to accept cables, switches and indicators as required. All units can be supplied factory modified with machining and silk screening to the user’s specification and AutoCAD and PDF dimensioned drawings can be downloaded from www.hammondmfg.com.
