OKW mast brackets for enclosures in harsh environments| Electronics Weekly

It is suitable for poles of minimum ø30 mm or > ø70 mm and is for harsh outdoor or industrial environments.

The company writes:

“Mounting enclosures high on poles can help to protect them from impact. OKW’s bracket is ideal for applications including plant/machine construction, HVAC, IoT/IIoT, smart factory/Industry 4.0, gateways, data loggers, ICT, electrical installations, measurement, control, agriculture and safety engineering.”

It fits a range of OKW enclosures, such as its industrial electronics housings. For example, the SOLID-BOX (IP 66, IP 67, IK08) and SMART-BOX (IP 66). The bracket can also be specified for use with other brands of enclosure.

Fitting the bracket to the rear of the enclosure requires drilling four holes 51 mm apart in a square pattern. Attachment to the pole or mast is with cable ties or stainless steel screw bands.

The 100 x 100 x 20 mm universal bracket is moulded from UV-stable ASA (UL 94 HB) in anthracite grey (RAL 7016) as standard.

OKW can supply the bracket on its own or as part of a customised enclosure project. Note that the company’s customisation services include machining, lacquering, printing, laser marking, decor foils, and EMC shielding.
