The Reason Why NEMA Electronic Cases Don’t Degrade

During summer in Cleveland, it is a smack dab in the middle of the unimaginable humidity including the sweltering high temperatures and balm nights. If you decided to go and step outside, you will start dripping in unimaginable sweat.  Because of the increase in humid and one can not really tell if they are just sweating or it is just because there is too much liquid collected from the air. One can say that they really hate bitter cold winters, but I will still choose it over any day rather than suffer in heat and humidity.

This is why when it come to electronics enclosure, the NEMA 4 and NEMA 4X rated ones seems to be so cool when it comes to this kind of weather. They are made to endure and withstand the heat because they are designed and engineered using a flame-retardant polycarbonate material. Together with a UL94-HB flame-rating, this enclosure becomes UV stabilized. The impact this material can resist and withstand in terms of temperature ranges from -40 Celsiums to +120 Celsius.

Even of the enclosure cases are not situated or installed in an area that gets water, the present moisture in air can still damage the electronics. The gasket which is provided with the NEMA rated electronics enclosure can help in protecting the internal electronics from that type of moisture. In addition to this, the housings also come with standard and stainless steel enclosure screws.

For the WP NEMA enclosures, WC NEMA and WA series NEMA enclosures – they are all made, designed, and engineered in line with IP65 of IEC 529 and NEMA 1, 2, 4, 4x, 12 and 13 specifications. The electronics enclosure is also listed to have the specifications of UL.508-4x

Some enclosure manufacturing companies can also give NEMA specific mounting boss screws. The 6mm screws can be utilized to effectively secure the PCB unto any of the internal mounting bosses that are carefully molded into the enclosure.
