The 1591HGY is a light gray, flame retardant ABS plastic enclosure in the 1591 Series of multipurpose boxes with card guides. It measures 6.52 x 2.79 x 1.14 in (166 x 71 x 29 mm) and suits engineers and integrators housing small electronics in a neutral-coloured box that mounts boards vertically.
Standard 1591 enclosures like this one are molded from easy-to-machine flame retardant ABS with a UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Lap joint construction protects against dust and splashing water, and the enclosure is designed to meet IP54. Light gray enclosures include standard nickel finish screws.
The 1591HGY ships as a shrink-wrapped assembly of box, lid, 6 cover screws and brass inserts at 0.22 lbs (0.10 kg). It is RoHS and REACH compliant. Matching accessories include the 1591HC clear polycarbonate lid and 1591Z adaptors for horizontal boards, and the enclosure can be factory milled, drilled or printed.
