Modular Enclosures: Definition, Features, and Selection Guide
What Are Modular Enclosures?
Modular enclosures are protective cases designed to house electrical and electronic components in a structured and secure way. They are versatile, scalable, and built to withstand various environmental conditions. These enclosures are commonly used in industrial, commercial, and residential applications, ensuring the safety and performance of the internal equipment.
Features of Modular Enclosures

How to Choose the Right Modular Enclosure
Selecting the appropriate modular enclosure depends on several factors:
Application Environment
- For outdoor use, choose enclosures with UV-resistant PC material and IP65 protection.
- For indoor applications, ABS enclosures can be cost-effective while providing adequate protection.
Size and Capacity
- Determine the number of modules required: Available capacities include 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, and 24 modules.
- Consider future scalability if additional components might be added later.
Material Selection
- Polycarbonate (PC): Offers higher impact and flame resistance, ideal for outdoor or high-risk areas.
- ABS: Lightweight and halogen-free, suitable for indoor environments.
Ease of Installation
- Look for enclosures with pre-installed DIN rails and ample wiring space to simplify installation.
Certifications and Compliance
- Ensure the enclosure complies with safety standards to meet regulatory requirements.
Warranty and After-Sales Support
- Opt for manufacturers offering warranties, like the 5-year warranty available for ONCCY modular enclosures, to ensure peace of mind.
