Displays boost demand for polyDOOR GRP enclosures

May 2012

Greater use of electronic displays in harsh environments is boosting demand for the window version of ROLEC’s polyDOOR GRP enclosures. Previously the solid windowless versions of the glass fibre reinforced polyester enclosures were the most popular. Now there is equal demand for both versions.

ROLEC’s polyDOOR cases are based on the company’s popular polyTOP range but with the addition of a robust hinged door – making them ideal for use as wall mount enclosures.

Typical applications include electronics or electrical equipment where frequent access for servicing or adjustment is required – such as marine electronics, industrial processing, machine control or safety monitoring.

ROLEC’s polyDOOR plastic enclosures are available in eight sizes ranging from 5.51" x 4.72" x 3.93" to 12.59" x 7.87" x 4.72". They are designed for harsh indoor or outdoor environments. The standard material is flame retardant glass fibre reinforced polyester rated to UL 94 V-0. Corrosion proof door fixings are included, as are stainless steel internal M6 mounting bushes. Two spring-loaded hinges allow the door to be removed for total access.

ROLEC polyDOOR IP 66 enclosures are fully insulated and can be fitted with terminal mounting rails. Other accessories include external wall brackets and internal mounting plates, as well as optional door fixings screws which include triangular or square collar heads, captive Allen and slotted type screws. These electronic enclosures can be fully customized with holes and cut-outs, painting and much more to provide a fully finished housing ready for mounting the components.
