Enclosures Advanced HMI enclosures for machine control equipment R


OLEC’s advanced HMI enclosures now include multiPANEL, profiPANEL and profiPANEL STANDARD – giving industrial electronics designers more choice. Elegant multiPANEL is best suited to small-volume applications requiring advanced functionality and cutting-edge aesthetics. Versatile profiPANEL is for higher-volume applications, notably machine building.


Both models enable virtually


borderless, flush-fit installation of a front plate or glass. They are manufactured from aluminium profiles, enabling the specification of custom sizes from 150 x 150 mm to 800 x 800 mm.


Smart, modern multiPANEL (IP 65) is available in depths of 70 mm and 85 mm, each in three variants offering either a bolted rear wall, a hinged and bolted rear door, or a hinged and lockable rear door. The front plate is connected permanently to the main body. Features include decorative stainless steel inlays. The main case and rear wall/ doors are black (RAL 9005).


Anodised silver profiPANEL (IP 65) enclosures offer greater depth capacity (eight depths from 60 mm to 300 mm). There is one option for the rear: a hinged, lockable door. A 200 mm high keyboard desk unit (60 mm or 90 mm deep) is also available as standard. Both the main case and desk unit feature light grey plastic corner trims. A more economical option is the 90 mm deep profiPANEL STANDARD (IP 65) – available in four standard plan sizes from 400 x 400 mm to 600 x 520 mm for 10” to 21” screens. Always-in-stock components enable shorter delivery times. Accessories for multiPANEL include: keyboard and mouse trays, handles and wall connectors. For profiPANEL: as above but also a mounting bracket set and traffic red (RAL 3020), traffic blue (RAL 5017) or jet black (RAL 9005) corner covers. For profiPANEL STANDARD: wall connectors, handles, mounting bracket set, and the red, blue or black corner covers. ROLEC recommends mounting the enclosures on its profiPLUS 50 or taraSMART suspension arms. It can supply the enclosures


and arms fully customised. Services include CNC machining, custom colours, engraving, laser processing, printing, and assembly/ installation of accessories.

Enclosure range maintains safety for up to 90 minutes in event of fire S


pelsberg’s Lifeline range of enclosures help ensure safety for up to 90 minutes in the event of a fire by enabling critical systems to continue operation. Protecting cable junctions, connection boxes, and distribution boards, the Lifeline enclosures allow alarms, lighting, and fire suppression system to operate even under flame and extreme heat. The lightweight, highly durable polycarbonate enclosures enable flexible wall-mount installation and retrofit in buildings and tunnels. In the event of fire in a building or tunnel, the function of alarms, smoke detectors, and fire suppressant devices is vital. It’s also crucial for some safety systems to continue operation long after a fire has commenced. This includes water booster systems to supply extinguishers, as well as smoke and heat extraction systems, through to evacuation-able fire brigade elevator systems.


To protect the electrical supply to these systems, the enclosures that secure cable junctions, connections, and distribution boards, must provide a barrier to extremes of heat and flame for up to an hour or more. Concrete has traditionally been used as a barrier to encase electrical wiring,

but the drawback is a lack of flexibility in installation, and subsequent retrofit. Alternatively, Spelsberg’s Lifeline system provides up to 90 minutes fire protection in a flexible and highly durable enclosure that can be externally mounted on building or tunnel walls. This enables fast and straightforward installation and retrofit of fire-protected devices and cabling whenever required. Spelsberg’s fire protection enclosures use heat and fire-resistant materials to achieve electrical functional integrity. Certified between E30, E60, and E90, this guarantees functional integrity of the enclosures for at least 30, 60, or 90 minutes, assisting continued electrical supply to connected devices and are tested in accordance with DIN 4102-12, the European Standard for fire resistance of electric cable systems required to maintain circuit integrity. They also hold certification from VDE, the German electrical standards and testing association.


Constructed from thermoplastic polycarbonate, which is non-conductive during fire or heat exposure, the enclosures also prevent the risk of short circuit. Within the enclosure, high temperature-resistant

ceramic terminal block clamps ensure integrity of the housing structure. In the event of fire and the use of sprinkler systems or hoses, the enclosures are protected to IP66 preventing ingress from strong water jets. IK08 rating also means the enclosures provide high resistance to physical impact. All Spelsberg Lifeline boxes are pre-


assembled to save time in installation, with only wall-mounting and wiring required. The cable and junction boxes are simply attached by a pair of pre-fitted lugs that allow 90° rotation and the terminal block can be set in a variety of positions.
