Hammond RH3001BK 130mm Black IP65 Gasketed Hand-Held ABS Enclosure

The RH3001BK is a black, gasketed hand-held enclosure with battery door from the RH Series, rated IP65. At 5.12 x 2.68 x 0.98 in (130 x 68 x 25 mm) it is the smaller RH body size, ideally suited to OEM engineers and product designers mounting a printed circuit board in a portable, battery-powered handheld device that needs sealing against dust and water.

The RH3001BK is molded in a general purpose ABS plastic that carries a UL flammability rating of UL94 HB. It is ergonomically designed for a comfortable fit in the user's hand, and the top half has a smooth recessed area for membranes, keypads and labels. Both halves contain molded PC board standoffs that accept M2.6 self-tapping screws.

This is the gasketed version: a factory-installed gasket runs around the top and bottom halves and around the battery door, which is secured by two battery door screws with O-rings. Lap joint construction adds protection against dust accumulation and splashing water.

The series table lists 130 x 67.5 x 25 mm, and the drawing shows 130.00 x 67.50 x 25.00 mm overall. The maximum P.C. board size is 67.3 x 61.33 mm. The purchased assembly includes box, lid, 4 PCB screws, gasket, 4 O-rings, 2 battery door screws, the battery door and 4 lid screws. It is assembled with M3 Philips self-tapping screws at a recommended torque of (43-50) ozf.in / (30-35) cN.m. Accessories include RH300 replacement gaskets, SC620-50 cover screws, SC615-50 battery door screws, SC519-50 PCB screws and the CP-001BK or CP-001G nylon belt clip. The light grey equivalent is the RH3005.

The enclosure can be factory modified (milling, drilling, printing) and solid models are available in .stp or .x_t. It is RoHS and REACH compliant. Some chemicals, such as acetone, ketones and thread locking compounds, can damage or weaken the plastic.
