OKW SLIM-CASE handheld enclosure for mobile applications

Click2Contact

Mobile devices require functional and visually appealing packaging. Handy, flat dimensions, yet at the same time with a lot of volume, are useful for universal installations and modern radio standards. The SLIM-CASE series of handheld enclosures by OKW Gehäusesysteme, with their slim design and their choice of different operating fronts, is suited to these mobile electronic applications.

The flat enclosure is suitable for modern handheld control units. It lies comfortably in the hand and looks particularly attractive. The enclosure range includes one top and one bottom part each, made of flame-resistant ASA+PC-FR (UL 94 V-0) in off-white. Assembly is effected from behind, using four TORX stainless steel screws. This gives an attractive appearance, since no screw heads are visible. The product is available in six versions in the dimensions 148 x 74 x 19/22 mm. Three different operating panels are available: recessed 1.6 mm, for the use of a contoured transparent front screen or for membrane keyboards; recessed 1 mm, for applications with decor foils; and flat operating panel, for individual design and arrangement of operating and display elements of all kinds.

These three versions are each available with two different bottom parts: with or without raised pillar for the optional TPE intermediate ring in volcano. This increases the installation volume by 3 mm and also serves as shock protection. As a further accessory, there is a transparent front screen (rear side printable on request) to protect the displays underneath. The whole thing is fixed with an adhesive foil. With the intermediate ring the enclosures achieve protection class IP54 or IP65 with an optional seal, allowing the product to be used both indoors and outdoors.

The slim design makes the enclosures suitable for the installation of flat electronic components as well as large-area displays and touch applications. The possible fields of application range from measuring and control technology to IoT/IIoT, healthcare, laboratory and medical technology, environmental technology and wireless communication. The product can be modified as required, for example with mechanical processing for interfaces, the printing of company logos, painting in different gloss levels or in metallic paint, EMC aluminium coating, membrane keyboards and more.
