Stainless steel enclosures are IP66-rated for safe wash-down
BCL Enclosures’ new BEDSS stainless steel series of lockable, solid door enclosures are specially designed to provide high-quality, secure, cost-effective protection for specialist and demanding electronic and electrical installations.
The enclosures are IP66 rated to protect contents against water and dust. They are also able to withstand impact to IK10 specifications and extremes of temperature ranging between -20°C and +55°C. The company says suitable applications for enclosures include corrosive environments, such as those found in the chemical and petrochemical industries, plus environments where strict hygiene is required, for example, the agro food sector.
The rugged BEDSS enclosures are manufactured from grade 304 stainless steel as standard, with marine grade 316 stainless steel available on request. They are supplied as a complete kit including a metal lock and key and a 2mm galvanised steel back mounting plate with spacers. A further advantage is that BEDSS enclosures come complete with an earth strap pre-wired and fitted between the door and the housing to save valuable installation time.
BCL Enclosures says the BEDSS range provides the perfect solution for protecting delicate components in environments that demand very high standards of security and cleanliness, for example where hygiene must be maintained. The marine grade 316 stainless steel versions also suit installations subject to salt water and will not corrode.
