View the handCASE range..
  September 2009

ROLEC have extended their range of handCASE enclosures with four new Type R models which now have a full format top recess for membrane keypads or product labels. These high performance IP 66 aluminium enclosures have been designed for mobile handheld electronics which are used in harsh indoor or outdoor environments.

Typical applications will include test and measurement equipment, machine and robot controllers, detection equipment, and data logging units etc.

The handCASE enclosures are manufactured from diecast aluminium GD AL Si 12, and as a result are very robust and offer a high degree of EMC shielding, which can be especially useful for RF equipment. The enclosure consists of three separate diecastings: top, base and battery compartment lid, plus two moulded TPE sealing gaskets and four screw gaskets.

These diecast enclosures are assembled by four corrosion proof stainless steel M3 screws. With the addition of the new Type R models, the range now offers eight individual case versions with external dimensions of 180 x 80 x 42 mm, 220 x 100 x 42 mm or 220 x 100 x 62 mm. The two smaller sizes are supplied with an integral battery compartment for four 1.5V AA cells or two 9V cells.

The new models are painted in light grey, RAL 7035, and the top section has a recessed keypad area which can be machined for display modules, keypads and push-button switches. The base can be machined for connectors, switches and cable glands. The largest case is deep enough for fitting standard control switches.

ROLEC offer customised enclosures based on this range, with CNC milling, drilling, silk-screen printing, assembly of cable glands and terminals and much more, thus providing a fully finished housing ready for fitting all the components.
