The 1556BABK is a compact black enclosure from the 1556 Modern General Purpose series, sized 3.15 in x 3.15 in x 2.36 in (80 mm x 80 mm x 60 mm). It is designed for printed circuit boards, IoT equipment and other small electronics, and suits designers who want a clean, rounded housing that can sit on a desk or mount to a wall.
It is molded from flame retardant ABS (FRABS) rated UL94 V-0, with a light satin texture, rounded corners and face. Lap joint construction protects against dust and splashing water, and the enclosure is designed to meet IP54. It is intended for indoor use only.
