Hammond Electronics, a global force in the enclosures market with facilities in Canada, the United States, Europe, Australia, and South East Asia, has extended the variety of popular 1455 standard family enclosures by adding new 1455F flanged extruded aluminium enclosures.
The 14555F features a completely new extrusion that has a flat base with integral mounting flanges. The flanges extend beyond the body of the unit and have four notches to accept securing screws for mounting the units to a flat surface such as a wall, bulkhead or machine.
The new enclosure is available in two sizes 80 x 54 x 23mm and 120 x 54 x 23mm and in clear and black anodised finish. More sizes will be released in the coming months. Both the launch sizes are designed to accept 50mm wide and 1.6mm thick PCBs with lengths of either 80 or 120mm. There are two removable aluminium end panels, which are flat for easy machining for I/O components. The PCB mounts into horizontal slots in the body of the enclosure; four alternative vertical positions are available.
Other standard variants in the 1455 family are the IP65 sealed 1457, the screened 1457-EMI version and the 1455HD thermally efficient units.
