The SX junction box range comprises 14 sizes of enclosure manufactured in 316 stainless steel. It is certified for use in Zone 1 and 21 hazardous areas.

Depending on the size, enclosures are available in standard depths of 140, 200 or 300mm and can be fitted with removable gland plates on any or all of the four sides. Entries may also be drilled through the rear face of the enclosure.

The SX range features a high level of ingress protection (IP66/67 and Type 4X.

Another advantage of the SX range is that it is suitable for fire resistance applications and when fitted with ceramic terminals meets the requirements of IEC 331 (750°C for 3 hours) and also BS6387/1983 (950°C for 3 hours).

Designed for simple installation and ease of use, the enclosure door is held to the enclosure by at least 4 captive stainless steel screws. These maintain the correct compression on the gasket. The oversize hinge design enables the screws to control the closing of the door, not the hinge, its only function being to support the door when opened. The hinges allow easy removal of the door with only minimal opening required before removal (less than 10°).

Earthing is accomplished by means of an external/internal earth stud fitted as standard which can be connected to the terminal mounting rail or component mounting plate and optionally earth studs can be fitted to the door and gland plates.

Rail mounted earth terminals or proprietary earth bars can be fitted inside the enclosure.

A mild steel version (MSX) is also available and can be supplied with a number of paint options (most RAL colours available) and anti corrosion finishes.

The ZAG range comprises of 19 enclosure sizes, precision die cast in Al Si 12 grade (LM24) aluminium alloy. This grade of aluminium provides maximum corrosion resistance especially in salt laden atmospheres.
The ZAG enclosure features a unique labyrinth seal system that protects the inner seal from the external environment. Mounting holes although contained within the profile of the enclosure also sit outside of the seal. This ensures excellent ingress protection (IP66/67 and Type 4X). The ambient temperature of ZAG range is from -70°C to 130°C.

The ZAG range provides a highly flexible enclosure solution. It can be machined, drilled, tapped with various thread forms and readily accepts most paint finishes and colours. In addition to the walls, tapped entries can also be machined the base of the enclosure to provide increased flexibility for installation. The range is particularly suitable for RFI screening and engraving or silk screen printing of instructions or decals.
All of this can be achieved even in relatively small batches which make the ZAG range ideal for OEM manufacturers who require a cost effective custom enclosure.

Fixings are manufactured from 316 grade stainless steel. Standard earthing is via an external/internal stainless steel stud. In turn this can be connected to the terminal mounting rail or component mounting plate.

Various rail mounted earth terminals or proprietary earth bars can be fitted inside the enclosure. External stainless steel mounting feet are also offered as an option.

Additional protection methods such as Alochrome, anodising and epoxy polyester painting are available to further enhance the anti-corrosion properties of the enclosure.
