Bocube Alu

( number of products: 150 )

Bocube Alu is a modern industrial enclosure in terms of design and assembly, made of aluminum while maintaining high protection standards.

The recess in the cover allows for flush mounting of displays and/or keyboards while leaving large side areas for attaching cable glands. A precisely installed neoprene or silicone gasket ensures a high IP protection rating according to DIN EN 60529. It meets the R1 or R7 requirements under the DIN EN 45545-2 hazard level HL3 standard and UL certification requirements. The aluminum Bocube Alu enclosure line corresponds in shape to the plastic Bocube enclosures, allowing for a consistent marketing image of devices depending on the material used.

 

About Bocube Alu

 

The testing was carried out by the renowned European laboratory RST Rail System Testing GmbH. Below are the test results

 

 

In addition to ensuring safety in terms of the coating along with the required documentation during technical inspections, Bopla enclosures provide maximum protection against water, dust, and mechanical damage (achieving impact protection rating IK09 according to IEC 62262 standards).

All Bopla enclosures are tested for IP rating according to DIN EN 60529, as detailed below.

According to the manufacturer, we emphasize once again that the IP rating of a non-machined enclosure cannot be automatically applied to a machined one, as machining results in a loss of the IP rating declared for the non-machined enclosure. New testing must be performed, and the achieved IP rating must be documented for the device. At Bopla, we conduct such tests for typical railway or bus applications involving aluminum enclosures with conduit connectors or cable glands. Watch the video of our test conducted on the Bopla Euromas Alu enclosure catalog number A 140 measuring 230 x 200 x 110 mm and the A 110 enclosure measuring 125 x 80 x 60 mm—the most popular sizes for railway applications. We achieved IP 68 certification confirmed by Bopla's internal certificate!!!

Certificate No. 981 IPx8 test compliant with DIN EN 60529

Certificate No. 982 IPx8 test compliant with DIN EN 60529

Additional corrosion protection for aluminum enclosures

At Bopla, we can also secure the enclosure with an additional protective coating so that the enclosures meet the requirements of ISO 9227 (960h salt spray test). To meet this standard, aluminum enclosures must undergo surface treatment and appropriate painting. In the salt spray test, the following results can be achieved: 1000 hours: passivation + powder coating 336 hours: passivation only (high concentration) on uncoated aluminum.

Key Features of Bocube Alu:

 

Modern design of Bocube Alu sets design trends
Thanks to its modern design, Bocube Alu sets new design trends in the die-cast enclosure sector.
Recess in the cover for mounting displays and keyboards
Recess in the cover for flush mounting of displays and/or keyboards while leaving large side areas for attaching cable glands. Accessories for wall mounting are available.
Integrated hinge provides easy access to the interior
The integrated hinge provides easy access to the interior without unscrewing all the cover screws.
Durable component fixtures
All components are permanently attached to the enclosure during assembly, installation, or servicing. This ensures Bocube Alu complies with the EU Machinery Directive.
Versions resistant to seawater (SWB)
Versions resistant to seawater (SWB) or with additional anti-corrosion protection or EMC gasket are available upon request.

In our store, you will find the full range of standard Bocube Alu enclosures by Bopla, for which Soyter Components is an authorized distributor in Poland. For information on the availability of non-standard dimensions or colors, please contact us at: handlowy@soyter.pl.

Additional services

Experience and hundreds of initiatives implemented together with our clients allow us to offer a number of additional services covering each of the purchased enclosures. Our projects bring the product closer to its final form, accelerating the process of integrating the finished project. Specialists cooperating with us can carry out the necessary modifications for you in the field of:

  • machinal processing,
  • lacquering,
  • printing,
  • engraving,
  • electronics integration.
mechanical_processing

By selecting the right enclosure for your requirements and making the necessary modifications, we make sure that you get the product you are looking for. The great advantage that we have been able to build based on many years of experience is the ability to properly optimize costs while maintaining high quality standards. With the services we offer, we shorten the delivery time and reduce transport costs as well as the risk of rejects or the need to make corrections.

The scope of mechanical processing includes such activities as: milling, drilling, cutting aluminum profiles or threading. Modern machinery and CNC devices operated by highly qualified employees are not the only advantage of the additional service. Another of the machining processes that we offer is welding of plastics. Plastic enclosures supplied by Bopla are equipped with sleeves for mounting mounting plates or PCBs. It happens, however, that additional fastening is needed in a different place than provided by the manufacturer. We can then propose to weld the spacer pin at the appropriate point thanks to a special welding method.

 

surface_improvement

In our catalog of services, we also have the option of improving the surface and aesthetics of the enclosures. Digital printing, screen printing and pad printing, laser marking, engraving or finally, lacquering and powder coating will give the housing an individual character. We can apply any customer's design to the housing, from the company logo, through appropriate markings, to specific operating instructions. The concept of surface improvement covers technical processes that improve product properties, e.g. protecting the enclosure with EMC coating by vapor deposition of appropriate coatings (metallization), lacquering with conductive copper lacquer or using additional contact seals.

It is worth mentioning that we do not limit ourselves to the personalization of enclosures. It also applies to, for example, front panels, profiles and selected accessories.

 

integration

The last group among the services we offer is the widely understood integration of electronics inside the enclosures. We support in the integration of: electronic modules, electromechanical components, touch screens, displays, membrane keyboards, cables, EMC shielding. At the same time, we offer conventional forms of assembly, including the most popular ones: surface mount (SMT), through-hole (THT) and various soldering and bonding techniques. By using our component integration service, we minimize our customers' own workload and take over the risk of faulty production. In addition to the integration of membrane keypads or display solutions, we also have the competence to offer the right product tailored to individual requirements (customized).
