A hermetically sealed enclosure provides the perfect protection from dust and moisture of internal electrical components and devices in a range of applications. This form of hermetic enclosure is ideal for when space is limited or restricted and allows PCB (printed circuit boards) and other standard electronic components to be safely installed and protected at all times, reducing the risk of damage and deterioration. Hermetic enclosures are also compatible with a range of accessories such as panel blanking, hooks and screws for easy installation. How to mount a hermetically sealed enclosure ABS hermetically sealed enclosures can easily be mounted to a variety of surfaces via a screw or hook, providing quick installation and deinstallation making them a very versatile enclosure that is perfect for protecting electrical devices and components. What is ABS? ABS or Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene is a type of thermoplastic polymer that is highly durable and features a high resistance to chemical corrosion in its solid state. It has a low melting point allowing it to be molded and shaped accordingly, making it a very versatile material. What is an IP rating? IP (Ingress Protection) levels refer to the level of protection materials such as an electrical enclosure has against solids such as dust and debris and liquids. The first digit identifies the level of protection from a physical intrusion. The second digit identifies the level of protection from water and other liquids. A lower IP rating (such as IP62 offers protection from dust and splashback of water from a distance whereas a high IP rating such as IP78 can offer complete dustproof protection plus a continuous level of protection underwater. If I modify the enclosure will the IP rating remain the same? Any modifications made to the enclosure will subsequently reduce the IP protective level. Are hermetic enclosures available in other materials? Depending on the application required, hermetic enclosures are manufactured in a variety of materials such as metal, ABS plastic and polycarbonate.
