Hammonds IP54 Die Cast Aluminium Instrument Enclosure 120x120x55mm

The Hammonds 1590 series general purpose instrument enclosure is a robust, wall-mounting solution designed for housing delicate electronics and instrumentation. Constructed from high-quality die-cast aluminium, it offers exceptional durability and protection in demanding environments. Its lap joint construction provides an effective seal, guarding against the ingress of dust and splashing water, achieving an IP54 ingress protection rating. This makes it ideal for use in industrial settings, workshops, or any location where equipment needs shielding from particulates and light moisture.

A significant feature is the improved EMI/RFI shielding, which helps protect sensitive internal circuitry from electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, ensuring reliable operation. The enclosure includes screws that are conveniently threaded into factory-tapped holes, simplifying and speeding up the assembly process. Furthermore, the low side wall draft angle (2 degrees or less) facilitates easy mounting and alignment of printed circuit boards (P.C. boards) within the unit.

With its natural aluminium finish, compact dimensions of 120mm x 120mm x 55mm, and a weight of 360 grams, this enclosure is both practical and lightweight. It complies with NEMA 12K standards, indicating suitability for indoor use where dust, dripping, and non-corrosive liquids may be present. The 1590 series is a versatile choice for a wide range of electrical and electronic applications, from control systems to sensor housings.
