An innovative range of wall-mounted cases under the name WALLTEC has been developed by OKW. These sturdy cases are suitable for use in measuring and control technology, heating, air conditioning and ventilation applications, as well as for machine and industrial controllers.
The range is available in six different cases sizes in two versions (with/without case cover) and the cases have two separate areas: the upper area is for the vertical or horizontal installation of printed circuit boards and mounting plates with the help of the integrated attachment domes/ridges; the lower compartment is intended as a separate terminal compartment, accessible at all times for terminal or subsequent maintenance work.
To protect the display and operating elements, the WALLTEC series can be ordered with a transparent case cover and the standard material it is made of is polycarbonate (UL 94 5V). This material has high UV resistance, which means that the cases are also suitable for use outdoors.
The transparent cover can be opened and closed easily with the user-friendly locking system (turquoise green, RAL 6016), which can be mounted on the left or on the right using hinges and snap locks. To prevent the case being opened by unauthorised persons, it is also possible to lead-seal the case cover as well as the terminal compartment cover.
The second version of the case without cover is offered ex works made of impact-resistant ABS (UL 94 HB). To complete the case, it is possible here to choose either an aluminium front panel or a front cover in the standard colour of light grey (RAL 7035).
The WALLTEC series can be mounted directly on the wall or by means of optionally available wall-mounting brackets. The range of accessories also includes suitable DIN-rail mounting brackets and the appropriate mounting plates. The basic case with case cover or front cover meets the requirements of protection class IP65.
