Stylish and robust IP65 handheld enclosures
TEKO has extended its ‘TEKBOX' enclosures range to include sealed versions rated IP65. As a result, these modern handheld enclosures can now be used outdoor or in harsher industrial environments.
Typical applications will include test and measurement instruments, mobile data collection units, environmental monitoring equipment, medical devices etc.
‘TEKBOX' enclosures consist of the top and base mouldings which are fitted together with a deep tongue and groove feature and four self-tapping screws. The IP65 models are supplied with a rubber gasket which is fitted into the groove in the top part. This provides a high performance seal which is unaffected by frequent opening.
The new IP65 models are available in four rectangular sizes and two ‘T' shaped sizes. The external dimensions range from 160 x 94 x 31 mm to 210 x 116 x 31 mm.
Screw pillars are provided inside the top and base parts for fitting PCBs, keypads and display assemblies.
‘TEKBOX' cases are moulded in off-white, RAL 9002 or black, RAL 9004 ABS (UL 94 HB). Recessed areas the top and base parts are provided for mounting membrane keypads or product labels.
TEKO can supply the ‘TEKBOX' enclosures with additional holes for push-buttons, connectors and displays etc., plus silk-screen printed legends and logos, and EMC shielding. The cases can also be moulded or painted in alternative colours. Standard prices start at £7.
