New aluminium enclosures offer added security from hidden fixing system

Rolec's tough new range of aluSMART aluminium enclosures features a hidden mounting bracket for swift installation and added security. The newcomer is similar to the proven aluCLIC range (which has click-to-fit mounting) but offers the added strength of a concealed screw-in bracket. The enclosures are rated to IP67 for a wide range of demanding industrial electronics applications. They can be fitted to wall, bulkheads and machines. Protection to IP69K can be specified as an option, making aluSMART suitable for food, pharmaceutical and agricultural environments where equipment undergoes frequent washing down using high-pressure, high-temperature cleaners. Features include a recessed lid to accommodate a membrane keypad or product label. All aluSMART cases can be installed ‘lid closed’ to maintain seal integrity and protect the electronics inside. The V2A stainless steel mounting bracket hidden on the underside is fixed with four screws. The range is available in three sizes (130mm x 90mm x 70mm; 160mm x 110mm x 70mm; 200mm x 130mm x 70mm) – all in Light Grey (RAL 7035) powder coat as standard. Options include a corrosion-proof coating and EMC shielding. ROLEC also offers a wide range of customising services: CNC machining (drilling, milling, tapping), wet painting, powder coating, printing and engraving or legends and logos, membrane keypad mounting and component assembly.
