Choosing the right enclosure material depends on your application and the environmental conditions. Generally, aluminum, plastic, or polyester enclosures are used. Each material has specific properties and is suitable for different applications.

The following factors, among others, play a role in the selection process:
• Indoor or outdoor use
• UV radiation, humidity, and temperature
• Chemical exposure
• Mechanical stress
• Required protection rating 

Our experts will be happy to assist you in selecting the optimal material for your application.

The required protection rating depends on the environmental conditions to which the enclosure is exposed. Depending on the product, ROLEC offers protection ratings ranging from IP 54 to IP 69K, providing solutions for a wide variety of applications—from dusty production environments to high-pressure cleaning.

ROLEC enclosures are designed for continuous use in demanding industrial environments. Their mechanical durability is described, among other things, by the IK protection rating and depends on the material, design, and application.
