DEEP RECESSES FOR OPTIMUM PROTECTION

Given the obvious requirement for safeguarding connectors, you would expect lots of standard enclosures to have deep recesses. Surprisingly not: there are far more enclosures out there with a recessed top for a membrane keypad – but no protection for any connectors.

One model that does have a deep recess is PROTEC (IP 65 optional), a desktop/wall-mount touch screen enclosure with a large square operating area on the top and a deep recess in the base section.

That recess can be hidden by a choice of two covers, both of which create extra space for components. This means that three versions of PROTEC can be specified for different applications within the same work environment: they all match, they all share the same design language.

Another example is SOLID-BOX (IP 66, IP 67, IK08). These tough enclosures for industrial electronics feature two deep recesses on the long sides, offering plenty of space for plugs, jacks and cable grommets.

And both PROTEC and SOLID-BOX illustrate another key point: simply adding a recess is not enough. The enclosure material must be sufficiently sturdy if the edges and corners of the recess are to provide any meaningful protection…
