ROLEC Launches Four New Sizes Of aluPLUS Diecast Enclosures

##IMAGE_1_R##These aluminium housings are now available in four more industry standard sizes:



-125 mm x 84 mm x 59 mm

-175 mm x 84 mm x 59 mm

-100 mm x 100 mm x 82 mm

-160 mm x 100 mm x 82 mm



Unlike generic diecast electronic enclosures, aluPLUS has a very modern external design which includes unique clip-on lid trims. These fit into the lid section – concealing both the assembly and wall/panel mounting screws.



No fixing screws are visible once the lid trims have been clipped into place, giving the enclosures a clean and modern appearance. This also helps to deter tampering. No external mounting brackets are needed because the enclosures can be mounted to a panel, wall or a machine housing while still assembled.



This ‘lids closed’ installation method avoids any possible damage to the components or sealing gasket. The clip-on lid trims are simply snapped into place once the unit is mounted. Every aluPLUS enclosure also features a 1.7 mm lid recess as standard, making it easy to fit a membrane keypad or polycarbonate label.



ROLEC aluPLUS enclosures are rated to IP66 as standard but can also be specified to IP67 with special factory fitted gaskets. The enclosures are manufactured in diecast aluminium material GD AL Si 12/DIN 1725 and powder painted in a fine textured light grey, RAL 7035.



Screw bosses are provided in the base and lid sections for PCBs, mounting plates, earth connections and other components (screws included). Accessories include special lid fixing screws with integrated retaining straps. These hold the lid in place during installation and servicing.



ROLEC also offers a full customising service on these enclosures with CNC milling, drilling, silk-screen printing, assembly of cable glands and terminals and much more – providing a fully finished housing ready for fitting the equipment.



ROLEC industrial enclosures are marketed in the UK by OKW Enclosures Ltd of Fareham, Hampshire. OKW Sales and Marketing Director Robert Cox said: “When ROLEC first launched aluPLUS it was announced that new sizes would be added later and now here they are.



“ROLEC aluPLUS is now available in eight standard sizes with widths ranging from 84 mm to 160 mm.”
