The 1590N is a diecast aluminum electronic instrument enclosure from the 1590-RIBBED series, sized for boards up to 112.24 mm by 56.34 mm. It suits OEM engineers, integrators and pedal builders who want a rugged, machinable metal box with internal ribs that guide a P.C. board into place.

The box and lid are diecast aluminum alloy, tough yet easy to machine. This natural version is unpainted and vibra finished for a smooth surface with no sharp edges. Lap joint construction protects against access of dust and splashing water, and the standard 1590N is rated IP54. The purchased assembly includes the box, lid and 4 cover screws (M3.5x0.6), which thread into factory-tapped holes; recommended torque is 50-55 cN.m [71-78 ozf.in], or 25-30 cN.m [36-43 ozf.in] with a gasket.

The part page lists 4.75 in x 2.61 in x 1.42 in (121 mm x 66 mm x 36 mm), and the series table lists 121 x 66 x 40 mm including the 4 mm lid, matching the drawing's 121.20 x 65.50 x 40.00 mm outline. Inside dimensions are 113.71 mm [4.477"] long, 57.81 mm [2.276"] wide and 35.20 mm [1.386"] high, with 31.13 mm [1.226"] guide height. Shipping weight is 0.38 lbs (0.17 kg).

For an IP65 upgrade, the optional 1590NGASKET kit is listed for this size, and the water-tight 1590WN is the factory gasketed counterpart. Flanged versions 1590NFL (flanged lid) and 1590NF (flanged bottom plate) are also offered. The 1590N is RoHS and REACH compliant and ships shrink wrapped.
