The 1590WAF combines the water-tight 1590A diecast aluminum enclosure with a flanged bottom plate, finished in natural aluminum. Designed to meet IP65, it gives integrators and OEM engineers a compact, sealed metal box that screws directly to a wall, panel or machine frame.

Box and lid are diecast aluminum alloy and the bottom flange is welded to the box. The unpainted natural aluminum version is vibra finished for a smooth surface with no sharp edges. A silicone gasket is included, supplied loose inside the enclosure rather than pre-installed, and is rated for -40°C to 150°C (-40°F to 302°F).

The listed size is 3.65 in x 1.52 in x 1.22 in (93 mm x 39 mm x 31 mm), with a nominal 3.66 in x 1.54 in x 1.22 in in the ordering table. The drawing gives an overall length of 121.16 mm [4.770 in] across the flange and an overall height of 32.50 mm [1.280 in]. Inside, the box is 87.80 mm x 33.70 mm x 27.40 mm, taking PC boards up to 86.8 mm x 32.7 mm.

Included are the box, lid and 4 cover screws in factory-tapped 6-32 UNC holes; the recommended torque with gasket is 25-30 cN.m [36-43 ozf.in]. The 1590AGASKET kit supplies replacement gaskets, and watertight stainless steel screws with O-ring come as 1590WMS100 and 1590WMS100BK. The 1590WAF is RoHS and REACH compliant, ships in shrink wrap and weighs 0.21 lbs (0.10 kg).
