The 1590WBBK is the black textured, water-tight version of the 1590B diecast aluminum enclosure, with no mounting flanges. This compact box suits electronics designers, hobby-to-OEM product builders and instrument makers who need a small, rugged metal housing designed to meet IP65.
Box and lid are diecast aluminum alloy, tough yet easy to machine for pots, jacks and switches. The black version is coated with tough polyester powder paint that keeps a lasting finish, even after machining, and black screws are included. Lap joint construction where lid and box meet protects against dust and splashing water, and the silicone gasket arrives loose inside the enclosure so it can be fitted after machining.
Nominal size is 4.41 x 2.40 x 1.22 in (112 x 61 x 31 mm); the part page lists 4.43 x 2.38 x 1.22 in (113 x 60 x 31 mm). The drawing shows an outside length of 112.40 mm [4.425 in], width of 60.50 mm [2.382 in] and height of 31.00 mm [1.220 in]. Inside, the box measures 107.05 mm [4.215 in] long, 55.45 mm [2.183 in] wide and 27.00 mm [1.063 in] high, and the maximum PC board is 53.45 x 105.05 mm. Side wall draft is 2 degrees or less.
The 1590WBBK includes box, lid and 4 cover screws for factory-tapped 6-32 UNC holes. Recommended torque is 50-55 cN.m [71-78 ozf.in], or 25-30 cN.m [36-43 ozf.in] with the gasket. Shipping weight is 0.32 lbs (0.15 kg); it is RoHS and REACH compliant, and the replacement gasket kit is 1590BGASKET.
