Industrial Enclosure Selection “White Paper”
As well as the traditional electrical junction boxes and distribution cabinets found throughout the factory environment, the increased use of distributed electronic control and monitoring equipment in advanced manufacturing facilities means that more systems and sub-systems are now to be found in close proximity to the plant and equipment being controlled.
For designers of such systems, this can bring new challenges when specifying the enclosure. If you are in that position, don’t worry, Hammond have your back! As a long-established designer and manufacturer of industrial enclosures, they know the questions to ask. Hammond have put together a white paper that sets out the different things you need to consider when selecting the housing for your system
Main considerations
- Size, temperature extremes and humidity
- Materials
- Aggressive atmospheres: acidic, alkaline and solvents
- Environmental sealing: IP Ratings
- Fixings and closures
- Manufacturer’s technical support

SRF3225AB and SRF3225TAC Series
1210-Size Automotive Grade Common Mode Chip Inductors
These automotive-grade common-mode inductors are constructed with a ferrite core and are bifilar-wound delivering a compact size, shielded construction for low radiation and high impedance over a broad frequency range to suppress Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) coming into or leaving the system. The 0.2/0.3 mm height side-wall terminal at each end of the inductor core helps enhance the component’s mechanical strength after it is assembled on the board.
The Model SRF3225AB and SRF3225TAC series are AEC-Q200 compliant for high reliability and durability applications. The Model SRF3225AB was designed for noise suppression in 2-wire UTP (unshielded twisted pair) cable automotive audio bus systems. The SRF3225TAC series is focused on common-mode noise suppression for classic CAN and higher data rate CAN-FD Class II applications
Features
- Bifilar-wound
- Shielded construction for low radiation
- High impedance, wide EMI suppression frequency range
- AEC-Q200 compliant
- Meets IEC 62228-3 standard (Model SRF3225TAC-101Y)
- RoHS compliant and Halogen-free

PJU GRP IP66 Industrial Enclosures for Indoor or Outdoor Installation
The PJU family of GRP (glass reinforced polyester) enclosures is designed for use as instrument enclosures, electric, hydraulic, or pneumatic control housings, electrical junction boxes, or terminal wiring enclosures and are suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation. They provide outstanding insulation and protection where equipment may be hosed down or be installed in very wet, high temperature, or highly corrosive environments
They are ideal for equipment that uses wi-fi, Bluetooth, or other non-wired communication technologies as the aerials can be safely positioned inside the enclosure without suffering signal attenuation.
Features
- Nine sizes from 154 x 159 x 105 to 521 x 413 x 257
- Corrosion-resistant
- Chemical resistant
- UV stable for external installation
- IP66 sealed (UL/CSA Type 4X)
- Mounting flanges or feet
- Hinged or lift-off covers
- Choice of twist/snap latches, snap latches, or securing screws
- Solid or clear covers
- Optional internal fixed panels in GRP, aluminium, galvanised mild steel or 304 stainless steel
- Optional hinged aluminium panels
- Lower cost than stainless steel alternatives
- Non-metallic material permits internal antenna for communication devices
- Pole mounting kits are available
- Suitable for round poles up to 375mm diameter
- Suitable for square or rectangular shapes

B43548 Series Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor with Snap-In Terminals.
These capacitors feature an excellent maximum ripple current capability of 9.80 A (400 V, 100 Hz, 60 °C). This makes them ideal for demanding applications in power electronics. The capacitors are designed for a maximum operating temperature of 105 °C, have a rated voltage range of 400 V to 500 V, and reach under these conditions a useful lifetime of 3000 h. Depending on the rated voltage, they offer a capacitance range of 68 µF to 820 µF in case sizes of 25 x 25 mm to 35 x 55 mm (d x l). A special feature of the series is the high level of resilience against rapid charging and discharging cycles.
With their outstanding ripple current capability, these capacitors are ideal for use in frequency converters, industrial power supplies, UPS systems, medical devices, and photovoltaic inverters. Due to their robustness and resilience against rapid charging and discharging cycles, they also meet the demanding requirements of servo drive applications.
