Practical accessories for mini cases

24 January 2001 Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services

OKW has developed an ergonomic and secure holding device to store away the medium and large versions of the company's 'smart cases'. These are equipped with an outlet at the top and the base part in order to make sure that applications using cables or terminal units can still be operated when put aside. The round contours of the cases are maintained in the shape of the holding devices to provide a neat appearance. The holding devices are mainly used for wall-mounting systems. The necessary attachments can be easily and quickly assembled when using the customary screws according to DIN 7981 with a head diameter of 5,3 to 8,2 mm. The holding devices are manufactured in ABS and are available in off-white (RAL 9002) and black (RAL 9005) standard colours.

For all medium and large 'smart cases' OKW also offers an accessory pocket clip made in ABS matching colours. In this way it is possible to wear the cases on a belt or shirt pocket (suitable for a thickness of 1 to 4 mm). The clips are attached to the corresponding hole centres which are injected for drilling and punching through the base parts of the cases. After correct assembly with the enclosed screws the protection class of the case can be maintained.
