Hammond 1590 Series Natural Die Cast Aluminium Enclosure, IP66, IK08, Natural Lid, 160 x 160 x 90.5mm

When it comes to critical instruments, play it safe with this enclosure from Hammond. It's made from a robust aluminium alloy with chunky walls designed for warp-free wall mounting. These also ensure sensitive contents are shielded from EMI and RFI. Overlapping joints and a silicone rubber gasket – supplied loose for optional installation – keep it tightly sealed. Thanks to an IP66 rating, you can trust your electronics will stay dust-free and safe from powerful jets of water. Self-captive screws and pre-threaded mounting holes make screwing on the lid a breeze. As these holes are positioned outside of the box walls, your gasket stays intact.

This enclosure has an IK08 rating, meaning it's protected against 5 joules of impact. This is the equivalent of an object weighing 1.7kg hitting the front or being dropped from a height of 300mm onto the box.
