Hammond 1552D5BK 150x50x30 mm Hand-Held ABS Enclosure, Black

The 1552D5BK is a 150 x 50 x 30 mm hand-held ABS plastic enclosure in black, the largest size in the 1552 series: 150 mm long and 30 mm deep. It offers the most board area in the family, accepting a printed circuit board up to 144.5 mm x 43.7 mm, plus 24.20 mm of inside height for taller parts. Designed for a comfortable fit in the user's hand and also suitable for desktop use, it is a natural choice for larger hand-held controllers and instruments.

It is molded from flame retardant ABS plastic rated UL94-V0 with a satin texture, and the black case ships with black screws. Lap joint construction protects against dust accumulation and splashing water, and the enclosure is designed to meet IP54 requirements. Four self-tapping screws secure the two halves, and snap closures near the middle of the enclosure wall add sturdiness. The top is recessed to take a membrane display or keypad.

Overall dimensions are 5.91 in (150 mm) long, 1.97 in (50 mm) wide and 1.18 in (30 mm) deep, with an inside height of 24.20 mm [0.95 in]. PCB bosses accept #2 self-tapping screws (1553WTS100, #2 x 3/16", sold in packs of 100), and the recommended cover screw torque is 21-28 ozf-in (15-20 cN-m). The purchased assembly includes the box, lid, two end panels and four cover screws.

Both end panels are removable for easy modification, or can be swapped for the size D rubberized cable gland kit (1552DPGKITBK / 1552DPGKITGY), which accepts 2 mm to 6 mm cable. A size D wall-mount holder (1552DHBK / 1552DHGY) and replacement end panel 10-packs (1552DPLBK-10 / 1552DPLGY-10) are sold separately. Solid models are available in .stp or .x_t, and the 1552D5BK can be factory modified with milling, drilling or printing.
