Aluminium enclosures withstand harsh conditions

The Deltron 480C and 483C ranges of aluminium enclosures now have combined IP67/IP68 ratings and EMI/RFI protection, making them suitable for demanding electrical and environmental conditions in marine, industrial, food preparation, transportation, leisure, military and aerospace.

All are certified to BS EN 60529: 1992.

When using a conductive enclosure, the EMI/RFI screening achieved can be significantly impaired with the application of a non-conductive sealing mechanism.

DEM Manufacturing has designed an EMI/RFI seal that maintains conductivity between the lid and box, and is essential to eliminate high-frequency radiated emissions.

This allows EMI and RFI screening properties to be unaffected, while maintaining a watertight seal of up to one metre for 30min (IP67) and depths of up to five metres for one hour (IP68).

This means the enclosure is suitable for use in high humidity, underwater applications and applications subjected to heavy spray.

DEM Manufacturing offers a range of die-cast aluminium enclosures: plain and coated, flanged, sealed, IP65 and IP66, with a full 'one stop' solution for design, engineering finishing and box build.

Also offered is a selection of ABS, polycarbonate IP65 enclosures.

The Deltron 480C series offers 15 standard box sizes, while the Deltron 483C series consists of nine sizes of flanged boxes.

Sizes range from 60 x 55 x 31mm to 275 x 175 x 66mm.
