Enclosure box ELEKTROPLAST OH-4B.1 248×198×106 mm IP65 surface-mounted grey

Surface-mounted hermetic enclosure ELEKTROPLAST OH-4B.1 with dimensions 248×198×106 mm provides IP65 protection for electrical components. The grey ABS/plastic housing is designed to shield junctions, small control modules and terminal blocks from dust and water jets, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations where a compact, sealed box is required.

Advantages

The enclosure offers IP65 ingress protection, ensuring resistance to dust and low-pressure water jets. Its ABS construction provides mechanical durability and UV resistance suitable for outdoor exposure. The lid and body design allow secure sealing and straightforward surface-mounted installation. The compact footprint balances internal volume for components with a small external profile.

Suitable for

• Protecting electrical junctions and connections in residential and commercial buildings
• Housing small control modules, relays or terminal blocks
• Indoor and outdoor surface-mounted installations requiring a sealed enclosure
• Light industrial applications where splash and dust protection are needed

When it may not be suitable

This enclosure is not intended for applications requiring higher protection classes (for example IP66/IP67) or full immersion resistance. It is also not suitable for housing large equipment or multi-module assemblies that exceed the internal volume defined by the external dimensions.

Key specifications

• External dimensions: 248 × 198 × 106 mm
• Protection rating: IP65 (dust-tight and protected against water jets)
• Material: ABS/plastic housing
• Colour: grey
• Mounting type: surface-mounted

How to use

Mount the enclosure on a flat surface using appropriate screws or anchors through the mounting points. Install internal components such as terminal blocks or small control modules on the provided internal space; if required, use compatible mounting plates or DIN-rail accessories sized for the internal dimensions. Ensure cable entries are made through the designated entry points or use suitable glands to maintain the IP65 seal. After wiring, correctly align and tighten the lid fasteners and check the gasket seating to preserve the hermetic protection.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm internal space is adequate for your components and any accessories (mounting plates, DIN rails)
• Verify cable gland sizes and positions for your cable entries to maintain IP65 sealing
• Assess whether IP65 protection level meets environmental and safety requirements
• Check compatibility with mounting surface and fasteners

Usage recommendations

For reliable sealing, use compatible cable glands at cable entry points and replace the gasket if damaged. Avoid exposing the enclosure to prolonged chemical contact or very high mechanical impact. For outdoor installations, mount in a location that minimises direct exposure to extreme weather where possible to extend service life.
