Hammond RP1615C 254 x 204 x 90 mm ABS Box, Clear Polycarbonate Lid

The RP1615C is the light gray ABS version of the large 254 x 204 x 90 mm (10.00 x 8.03 x 3.54 in) RP enclosure, supplied with a clear polycarbonate lid. In this size the ordering table lists no ABS opaque lid model, so the RP1615C is the ABS choice for buyers who want visibility into a big, sealed box.

The drawing describes it as General Purpose ABS Light Grey with Polycarbonate Clear Lid (UL94 HB). The part page lists a nominal size of 250 x 200 x 95 mm (9.84 x 7.87 x 3.74 in); the ordering table and drawing give 254 x 204 x 90 mm (10.00 x 8.03 x 3.54 in) overall. The two piece tongue & groove lid seals with a rubber gasket that is field installed, for an IP65 rating.

The interior measures 244.19 x 194.19 x 83.50 mm (9.61 x 7.65 x 3.29 in). P.C. boards up to 235 x 186 mm fit on posts that accept M3 self-tapping screws, and a smooth recessed lid area can take a membrane, label or silkscreen. Four self captivating M3.5 stainless steel screws thread into corrosion resistant bushings; recommended torque is (43-50) ozf.in.

Box, lid, string gasket, four PCB screws and four lid screws come packed in a bag. The RP1615C is RoHS and REACH compliant. Accessories for this size include STC580 / STA580 inner panels, the RP161GASKET 2-pack, and MF0050 / MF0055 mounting feet kits. Hammond notes that some chemicals, including acetone, ketones, thread locking compounds and cutting fluids, can damage or weaken plastic.
