Picking the correct latch is a small but important step when deciding the type of the enclosure needed for your project. Different styles of latches can affect the usability, security, and NEMA rating of an enclosure. All of the latch options for Integra’s polycarbonate enclosures offer a minimum NEMA 4X protection rating, with certain styles being able to achieve NEMA 6P.
There may be times when your application requires more than passive (convection cooling) or forced air flow (fans) to keep your electronics in their recommended temperature range. When those situations arise, Bison ProFab manufactures cooled & heated industrial weatherproof enclosures designed to protect valuable equipment from damage caused by harsh temperatures, humidity and condensation. Electrical or electronic equipment should be kept at its optimal operating temperature to reduce maintenance costs, prevent major failures, and extend the life of the equipment. Climate controlled cabinets are a smart investment for your electrical or electronic equipment assets.
