HAYDEN, Idaho – Transtector Systems in Hayden, Idaho, is introducing UL-listed polycarbonate National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) enclosures to protect equipment from theft or damage in rapid-deployment corrosive environments, hotspot applications, and remote wireless LAN Wi-Fi setups.

The polycarb NEMA electronics enclosures family has almost two dozen models in two sizes, two ingress protection levels, two colors, and a cooling fan and a heater or just a cooling fan. Size choices are either 14 inches tall by 12 wide by 6 deep, or 18 tall inches by 16 wide by 10 deep.

Transtector's indoor/outdoor enclosures are made of high-impact, UV-resistant polycarbonate. Their lids feature nonmetallic hinges for quick removal and reattachment. They come with a pair of stainless-steel latches with padlock eyes.

All electronics enclosures are weatherproof and heat-resistant, with ingress protection (IP) ratings that keep their insides dry under falling rain. The NEMA 3R models are rated IP24, guarding against splashing water from any direction and ice formation.

The NEMA 4X models are rated IP66 to keep out rain, sleet, snow and splashing and hose-directed water, and are also dust-tight and corrosion-resistant. Four included lid screws enable a NEMA 6P IP68 rating, though any openings would have to be properly sealed with an IP68 plug, gland, or coupler.

Inside each enclosure, an aluminum mounting plate holds surge-protected duplex 120-volt AC outlets and a terminal block for easy hookup to externally provided line power. The heated and cooled units include a solid-state thermostat-controlled fan and a 200-watt heater. The cooled-only units have a thermostat control for the fans. The enclosures can be mounted to any flat wall.
