The 1591EBU is a blue ABS plastic case and lid in the 1591E size, 191 x 110 x 61 mm (7.5 x 4.35 x 2.39 in). A distinct blue housing helps colour-code equipment or give a product a recognisable look, and the integral card guides make it a ready-made home for vertically mounted circuit boards.
The 1591E drawing lists the blue version as flame retardant ABS (UL94 V-0), matching the part page flame rating. The lid fastens with six M3-0.5 x 10 mm machine screws into pre-installed brass inserts for repeated access, torqued to 35.5-42.5 ozf.in (25-30 cN.m). Lap joint construction and an IP54 design protect against dust and splashing water.
The 1591EBU is RoHS and REACH compliant and can be factory modified by milling, drilling or printing, with solid models in .stp or .x_t. Accessories listed for the 1591E include the 1591EC clear lid, 1591Z card adaptors and 1599CLIP belt clips.
