UM-ALU extruded profile housings for high EMC

Aluminum housings from the UM-ALU series ensure full flexibility in the assembly process with custom PCB sizes. They also feature high electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). This makes the extruded profile housings particularly suitable for industrial applications with high electromagnetic interference potential. Short installation times and the free choice of connection technology provide greater flexibility when designing devices.

Technical principles of electronics housings Solutions for DIN rail applications

Electronics housings are an elementary part of a device. They determine its appearance and protect the electronics from external influences. In addition, they enable assembly in superordinate units. Device manufacturers must therefore pay attention to many details, and not only in the design, but also in the choice of housing when it comes to materials and quality testing. This brochure provides you with all the details.
