METCASE TECHNOMET SL sloping front instrument enclosures

Click2Contact

METCASE has launched a sloping front version of its TECHNOMET desktop instrument enclosures. TECHNOMET SL is designed for applications including medical and laboratory instruments, test and measurement, industrial control and communications.

TECHNOMET aluminium enclosures are engineered to fine tolerances. Diecast metal front and rear bezels fit flush in the case body — the SL model’s front bezel is inclined at 18° for an optimal viewing angle of the controls, displays, etc. Extruded snap-on trims at front and rear cover all the front panel and case fixing screws. The rear panel screws are not covered for easier access.

The enclosure offers swift access to the PCBs. Its wraparound top cover slides over the chassis and is located on hook-profiled rails on the underside. A single PCB can be installed on four pre-fitted M3 pillars in the base, or multiple PCBs can slide in on clip-in anti-vibration guides (accessories).

The front and rear panels are recessed to protect switches, connectors, displays and keypads. The rear panel and base are vented. Alternative options (including non-vented panels) are available on request. All case panels are fitted with M4 earth studs for electrical continuity.

The enclosure is available in three standard sizes: 100 x 225 x 230 mm, 125 x 275 x 285 mm and 150 x 350 x 320 mm (which features side grip handles). Custom sizes are available on request. The enclosures are available in light grey or anthracite grey, and are supplied fully assembled including four modern anti-skid feet with tilt legs (which can further increase the viewing angle).

Accessories include front panels and snap-in PCB guides. Customising options include: bespoke sizes; custom front panels; CNC machining, fixings and inserts; custom colours and finishes; and digital printing of legends and logos.
