An OKW Enclosures product story
Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Apr 12, 2011
OKW has added XS and L sizes to its Diatec range of wall-mount enclosures, for applications including machine controllers, door entry systems, time loggers, detection systems and medical equipment.
These compliment the existing sizes S and M models.
OKW has extended the Diatec range of wall mount enclosures with two new sizes
Diatec enclosures have a modern contoured design with a central control panel for mounting a membrane keypad, display module or push-button switches.
The range is now available in four standard sizes with external dimensions from 155 x 150 x 37mm to 200 x 330 x 48mm.
The central control panel is recessed by 2.5mm to suit different types of membrane keypad or product label.
Diatec enclosures are moulded in ABS (UL 94 HB) in two standard colours, lava grey and off-white.
Other colours can be moulded or painted on request.
The XS models consist of a top and base part assembled by two fixing screws hidden on the underside.
The S, M and L models consist of four moulded parts: top, base and two contoured side panels that are snapped into place.
The side panels hide all of the assembly and mounting screws, giving a clean and secure appearance.
The interior of the three larger enclosures can be sub-divided using the accessory slot-in panels.
Screw pillars are moulded in the top and base parts of all models for mounting the PCBs and electronic assemblies.
Sizes S and M can be fitted with accessory hinged lids to protect the keypad area.
These lids are available in solid ABS and translucent or transparent polycarbonate.
Power cables can enter these enclosures via the underside or base panel.
Alternatively, when used in remote locations or as a portable units, the Diatec enclosures can be fitted with batteries.
Two 1.5VAA cells, or a single 9V cell (S,M and L) can be accommodated in the base part.
Prices for the new models start at GBP20.
OKW can supply Diatec enclosures with additional holes for keypads, connectors, controls and displays, as well as silk-screen printed legends and logos and EMC shielding.
