Which enclosure is the best option for outdoor use?
Short answer
For outdoor use, our polycarbonate (PC) range is the best option. Polycarbonate is sturdy and lightweight, built to endure harsh outdoor environments and to protect against UV light. The range carries IP66 protection, giving excellent resistance to dust, heavy rainfall and powerful water jets, and it withstands extreme temperatures from -35°C to 80°C with high resistance to flammability. An impact strength of IK08 handles the shocks and impacts commonly encountered outdoors, and the enclosures are sealable and stackable, with durable polyamide, glass-fibre reinforced cover screws.
