1 Enclosure > Fibox’ ARCA 18-by-16-by-10-inch enclosure accommodates larger components and high-power applications. The enclosure is available with an opaque or transparent cover and provides chemical resistance and a wide temperature range. The enclosure’s construction uses an overlapping design to protect the formed-in-place polyurethane gasket. Mounting plates and enclosure latches also are available in metallic or nonmetallic options. Wall mounting flanges are now available for all Fibox enclosures, allowing them to be mounted either in landscape or portrait orientation, giving customers further options for mounting enclosures.
2 Enclosure > Hoffman’s WeatherFlo Type 3R vented enclosure has a forced-air ventilation system for cooling drives or other high heat-producting control equipment in applications that require outdoor protection. The enclosure comes with a factory-installed 115-V AC fan and filter and comes in multiple sizes. The enclosure includes an adjustable thermostat that allows the fan to operate only when needed and its integrated solar shield top and white polyester powder finish provides lower solar heat absorption. The enclosure’s gasket and filter protect against contaminates entering the filter.
3 Rack Case > Hammond’s 19-in. rack cases are available in a variety of heights and depths up to 3U and 18 in. The racks can house a wide range of equipment and, if necessary, can be used as desktop enclosures. The racks’ front and rear panels are removable and interchangeable. Front-panel handles mounted to the rack can assist with the insertion and removal from the rack, providing greater support for better loads.
4 Enclosure > Appleton’s explosion-proof junction boxes can house control stations, starters, breakers, relays, meters, terminals for splicing wires, pull box, bus box or custom panel stations where hazardous materials are handled or stored. The aluminum enclosures can be horizontally or vertically mounted using stainless steel mounting feet. The watertight enclosure uses an external flange to maximize internal space while providing a wall thickness suitable for a minimum of five full threads.
5 Rack > Middle Atlantic Products’ secure intermediate distribution rack mounts hubs, routers and other equipment overhead in warehouses or other large, open areas. The rack mounts directly to unistrut beams or trusses using threading rods and comes in a durable textured black powder coat finish. The rack has a removable aluminum plate in the bottom, which can be machined to mount wireless antennae, dome cameras and more. UHF/VHF antenna knockouts also are located on the bottom. A grounding/bonding stud in the top of the enclosure ensures the equipment will be kept in place.
6 Enclosure > Leviton’s Opt-X high-density fiber rack enclosure uses a removable easy-glide sliding tray to help with high-density field terminations and splicing. The enclosures, which come in 1, 2 and 4 RU sizes, have transparent, removable front and rear doors and chassis covers to provide enhanced visibility and accessibility. The enclosure is 17 in. deep to accommodate high-density fiber termination and splicing. The enclosure’s patchcord bend radius guides prevent macrobending of routed fibers at cable exit points.
7 Enclosure > Rockwell Automation’s Allen-Bradley Guardmaster GuardShield washdown enclosure protects the light curtain in applications where equipment washdown is required. The enclosure protects Guardshield Type 4 and PAC safety light curtains against washdown chemicals or high-pressure spray (1,200 PSI) and can increase curtain life. The enclosure’s acrylic and acetal construction withstands high-pressure sprays and most washdown chemicals and can be easily applied.
8 Rack Case > SKB’s Shock-Rack 4U rolling rack case is 30 in. deep and uses eight elastometric shocks to carry a load up to 150 lbs. The load range can be increased by adding an additional shock at each mounting point. The case’s lid can easily be removed and reinstalled in seconds. Each unit is stackable with the wheels on or off, and the case’s front and back doors can be opened while stacked.
9 Enclosure > Panduit’s media distribution system enclosure delivers voice, video and data for commercial or residential applications. The enclosure consolidates all incoming communication cabling into one location to specify instructions and ease troubleshooting. The enclosure allows the user to easily mix and match triple play services to meet current and future needs. It features high density capacity to maximize enclosure space and minimize the size of in-wall installations.
10 Enclosure > Wiremold’s ceiling-mount wireless access point enclosure protects a variety of access points and antennae configurations. The enclosure comes in a lightweight aluminum design and has a removable access door for easy access point mounting and speedy installation. The enclosure’s compartment is 12×12 in. and 37/8 in. deep.
11 Cabinet > Staco’s FirstLine UPS Options cabinet has power distribution, maintenance bypass, and voltage transformation. It is available in 208 or 480V AC configurations and has top, bottom or side cable entry. The cabinet has an interlock wraparound maintenance bypass and an isolation transformer. It can hold up to 96 branch circuits using single, double or three-pole breakers. It can be used with virtually any uninterruptible power supply.
12 Enclosure > Stahlin’s nonmetallic enclosures use SolarGuard double-protection formula technology to protect the enclosures from the harmful effects of UV rays. UV rays can cause fiberglass enclosures to lose their color. Stahlin’s enclosures offer prolonged life in outdoor environments such as greenhouses. The enclosures also offer chemical and flame resistance and require little maintenance.
13 Cabinet > APW Mayville’s Pioneer Seismic cabinet comes with vertical and horizontal lacing bars for cable management and heavy duty, cantilevered and rollout shelves. The cabinet contains top- and rack-mountable fans, which move cool air through the racks to cool down equipment. The racks contain overhead lighting for easier adjustment of front-panel settings. The rack accommodates both cabling and power requirements that come with IT applications and video head-end equipment.
