    Sanitary Enclosures

    Hinged Cover

    Best for safeguarding wiring and electrical components in food, pharmaceutical, and other plants that require frequent washdowns. All of these enclosures are made of stainless steel to stand up to harsh cleaners and sanitizers. Their hygienic design minimizes spots where food and debris can collect, while the sloped roof drains water to prevent pooling and bacteria growth. Inside, a gasket blocks out water and dust to keep contents dry and contaminant-free. The gasket is FDA-compliant for direct contact with food and bright blue, so it's easy to spot if a piece ever breaks off and falls into your line. To leave space for cleaning behind these enclosures, mount them with a standoff to offset them from the wall.
    Hinged Cover—The cover swings open for fast, frequent access and remains attached to prevent drops or loss.
    Corrosion-Resistant 304 Stainless Steel—Won't corrode from frequent washdowns and can stand up to most cleaners, detergents, and oil. They are not, however, as dent or scratch resistant as steel.

    Create a comfortable working angle for your displays and touch screens. These enclosures mount on two different sides, allowing you to select a 30° or 60° angle that best suits your needs. All have a gasket that seals out dust that’s often created from grinding or drilling, safeguarding power supplies and wiring. They also protect against oil leaks, water drips, and coolant sprays from milling machines. Pair them with the optional pedestals and pedestal bases, or mount them directly to a workbench, machine, or wall.
    Hinged Cover—The cover swings open for fast, frequent access and remains attached to prevent drops or loss.
    Powder-Coated Steel—Inherently strong, these enclosures resist denting and cracking better than our other metal options. The coating forms a barrier against water and mild detergents, but if scratched, the underlying steel may rust.

    Console Enclosures

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Console Enclosures.
    Build out human-machine interfaces by installing buttons, switches, gauges, and other components to monitor and control machinery. These enclosures have a large, slanted cover that holds components at a visible angle without blocking the view of your operation. They are about countertop height, so you can sit or stand during use. Remove the cover and doors to assemble electronics with more working space. They are IP and NEMA rated for protection from washdowns, oil, and dust.
