The R100-162-000 is a mid-size, rectangular watertight enclosure from the R100 Series of Type 4X diecast aluminum enclosures (aluNORM - Watertight, Thick Wall). It is the shallow-lid, deep-body version, finished in beige (RAL7032) textured polyester powder coat, and is intended for OEM engineers, panel builders and electricians who need a sealed metal housing for control electronics, terminal blocks and circuit boards. The same size is offered in light gray (RAL7035) as R100-162-035.
The body and lid are die-cast aluminum (G AI SI 12 / DIN 1775) with a thick-wall, water-tight design. A neoprene gasket that is oil and petrol resistant comes standard and the stainless steel lid screws are captive. Because of the patented single-channel system, the lid screws and the mounting holes sit outside the gasket seal, and the same channel is used both for mounting the enclosure and for the lid screws, giving more interior space than dual-channel enclosures.
Overall size with lid is 160 x 240 x 100 mm (width x length x depth), listed on the part page as 6.3 in x 9.4 in x 3.94 in (160 mm x 239 mm x 100 mm; the series ordering table gives the length as 240 mm). The 160 x 240 mm rectangular footprint gives extra length for components arranged along one axis, and the maximum printed circuit board size is 225.1 mm long by 144.9 mm wide. Internal mounting shelves along both sides include blind holes and grounding screws, enclosure holes are threaded for easy installation and disassembly, and the shipping weight is 4 lbs (1.81 kg).
The R100-162-000 is rated IP66, CSA certified and UL Listed Type 4 for use with industrial control equipment, carries NEMA ratings of 1, 4, 4X, 12 & 13, operates from -40ºC up to +80ºC (-40ºF to 176ºF), and is RoHS and REACH compliant. Matching accessories for this size listed by the manufacturer:
