Phoenix Contact Polycarbonate Enclosures

Phoenix Contact polycarbonate enclosures are a series of rugged non-metallic electrical boxes that are used to house and protect industrial control devices such as terminal blocks and automation components. Constructed from impact resistant polycarbonate these plastic enclosures are perfect for protecting electrical components in a variety of industrial control and automation applications. Phoenix Contact polycarbonate enclosures are used throughout manufacturing and automation industries for protecting automation controllers, terminal blocks and other control components.

Polycarbonate is an impact resistant non-conductive plastic that is used for making electrical enclosures. The polycarbonate enclosures are molded with a high impact rating that allows them to be used in extreme environments and protects them from cracking and shattering in situations where metal enclosures may be dented. Some benefits of using polycarbonate enclosures over metal enclosures include weight and resistance to rust and corrosion. Many polycarbonate enclosures are used outdoors and have a high rating against UV light that helps to prevent degradation from the sun.

The Phoenix Contact polycarbonate enclosures have a wide range of applications throughout the industrial automation industry. Many of the enclosures have gasketed lids and have an ingress protection rating of IP65 or IP66, which help prevent dust, water, and environmental contaminants from entering the enclosure. Many automation devices such as PLCs, power supplies, terminal blocks, sensors, and communication devices can be housed in these enclosures to protect them from dirt, dust, water, and other harsh conditions.
