ELECTRONIC HOUSING SIMPLIFIES PRODUCTION AND CAN BE CUSTOMISED FOR OEMS
30 November 2003 - Switchtec Electronics Ltd

Available from specialist distributor Switchtec, Euroclamp's electronic housing simplifies the production of packaged electronic modules for DIN rail mounting. The housings can be supplied with up to 12 connections to the internal PCB (four 3-way terminal blocks), and are ideal for OEMs, manufacturers, PCB assemblers and panel builders who need to manufacture and package small electronic devices for a wide variety of applications.

For branding and identification purposes, housings can be supplied in custom colours; grey is the standard colour, but red, green, black and other moulding colours are available. Similarly the units can be supplied with a wide range of markings and graphics.

The standard 1 DIN width of 17.5mm is used to enable multiple device mounting on DIN rail and also provides sufficient inner volume to facilitate a large number of components. Euroclamp have designed a new style of terminal block that allows the PCB to be vertically mounted within the housing, offering greater flexibility and providing more room for components.

DIN rail compatibility ensures that housed electronic devices can be quickly installed and replaced for maintenance purposes. Competitively priced, the housings from Switchtec are made from self-extinguishing polyamide.
