Hammond adds nine more sizes to standard die-cast aluminium enclosure range
26 January 2011
A further nine sizes have been added to Hammond Electronics’ 1550 family of industry standard sized, small die-cast aluminium enclosures. The tapped holes and machine screws used to secure the lid make them particularly suitable for use where interior access is required on a regular basis. 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 26mm to 275 x 175 x 63mm, and the standard units are sealed to IP54. The 1550W 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; AutoCAD and PDF dimensioned drawings can be downloaded from Hammond's website.
