Hammonds 1455 Series IP54 Black Extruded Aluminium Instrument Enclosure - 160x1

The Hammonds 1455 Series IP54 Black Extruded Aluminium Instrument Enclosure provides a robust and versatile housing solution for sensitive electronic components. Designed to house printed circuit (PC) boards and for equipment interfacing, its rugged construction is built to last. The body is manufactured from a single piece of extruded aluminium with a minimum thickness of 1.5 mm, ensuring structural integrity and excellent heat dissipation for your electronics.

This enclosure is specifically sized for standard Eurocards, making it a compatible choice for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications. PC boards mount securely and horizontally by sliding into convenient internal slots that are extruded directly into the aluminium body itself, simplifying installation and ensuring a stable fit. For additional access, the design incorporates a slide-removable 'belly' plate.

The enclosure is completed with two easy-to-machine, black solid ABS plastic end panels that feature an integral bezel for a clean, professional finish. These panels are simple to customise for switches, connectors, or displays. The unit is supplied with self-adhesive clear rubber feet to prevent slipping and protect surfaces.

With an IP54 rating, this enclosure offers reliable protection against dust ingress and water splashes from any direction, making it suitable for use in environments where minor exposure to the elements is a concern. Its compact dimensions and durable aluminium build make it an ideal choice for prototyping, final product assembly, or housing interface equipment in control panels, laboratories, and telecommunication settings.
