Hammond Electronics has announced its 1597DIN family of UL94-V0 flame-retardant plastic enclosures for mounting to standard IEC/EN 60715 35mm DIN rails for applications such as industrial control equipment, automation, equipment management and monitoring, HVAC controllers and distributed IoT equipment. The family consists initially of four sizes: 2, 4, 6 and 9 standard 17.5mm module widths. All sizes have two mounting


positions for the terminal blocks, maximising I/O availability and giving headroom for future expansion if required. There are two horizontal PCB mounting slots in the body and two stand-offs in the base for component or PCB mounting. Plain, vented, knock out and slotted terminal covers are supplied separately and can be mixed and matched in the bodies as required. Primarily designed to accept PCBs is a slimline 22.5mm wide, 118mm deep and 90mm high polycarbonate control box with ventilated sides and front panel. All units feature simple no-tool


snap together assembly and easy disassembly for access to the internal components or PCB. www.hammondmfg.com

This robust solution features an


integrated handle with a comfortable soft-grip TPE insert. The handle is located above the centre of gravity for balanced carrying. This grip also makes the devices easy to manoeuvre when the unit is mounted (inverted) on a suspension arm or trolley. The large surface area can


accommodate a large touchscreen or membrane keypad. There is ample depth for interfaces (which are protected by recessed areas on the underside). www.okw.co.uk


RS EXPANDS RS PRO RANGE OF ENCLOSURES


RS Components (RS) has expanded its RS PRO portfolio of enclosures designed for industrial applications. For use by factory maintenance technicians and


electrical installers, the expanded range of RS PRO enclosures now features new units manufactured from fibre-glass-reinforced plastic, moulded by hot compression techniques. All the enclosures come in a light grey colour (RAL 7035) and are supplied with a galvanised-steel backplate and wall-mounting fixings. The units are especially ideal for transportation applications. All of the lightweight units offer easy installation


and come with an anti-intruder hinge system and wide door opening – up to 180ºC – with door reversibility for opening on the left or right. The units also offer more than 10 years of life under standard environmental conditions and without any maintenance necessary. The halogen-free units have been built to withstand the 960ºC glow-wire test and are double insulated


to prevent electrical contact risks. The units come with a certification of compliance to IEC62208 for empty enclosures for use with low-voltage switchgear and control-equipment assemblies. They are suitable for indoor and outdoor use and provide protection to IP66 as part of the EN60529 standard. uk.rs-online.com
