Rising demand for ROLEC’s HMI touchscreen enclosures has not diminished the popularity of its conTROL (IP66, IP67) housings for buttons and switches, the company says.

These die-cast aluminium enclosures, which feature built-in EMC shielding, are designed primarily for machine control in challenging environments. They are also ideal for a wide range of other industrial electronics applications.

Rugged conTROL’s EMC shielding does not require expensive and delicate conductive gaskets. Instead, continuous contact is created by a patented tooth system pre-cast into the lid and base.

The lid features a deep recess to protect buttons, switches and other operating elements. Inside the enclosure, there are threaded screw bosses for installing PCBs, mounting plates and terminal rails.

Versatile conTROL is manufactured in four standard sizes from 84.8 x 129 x 55mm to 85 x 180 x 78mm. This makes it easy to replace existing enclosures. The standard colour is pebble grey (RAL 7032). Custom colours are available on request.

Options and accessories include an installation kit, hinges, lid supports, external mounting brackets, mounting plates, supporting rails and a corrosion-proof coating in azure blue (RAL 5009).

ROLEC can supply conTROL enclosures fully customised. Services include CNC machining, engraving, powder coating, painting, printing, display windows and assembly.
