Ralston Metal Products Limited Sloped Top Enclosure AFS-05052

Application Ralston’s AFS series enclosures are designed to provide protection indoors and outdoors, against dust, dirt, oil, and water for items such as: electronic and electrical controls, instrumentation systems, pneumatic, hydraulic and machine controls. The AFS is designed for use in such areas as dairies, breweries and the food industry where they are subject to frequent high pressure hosing and generally wet conditions (Not submersible). Construction All AFS enclosures are made from 1.5mm 304 stainless steel. All seams are continuously welded and ground to a smooth finish. Each enclosure comes complete with grounding studs, and a removable 2.5mm galvanized back panel mounted on M8 weld nuts. The 130° opening door is easily removed by pulling the removable hinge pins from the hidden hinges to allow right or left hand opening. The door is sealed with an extruded one-piece polyurethane gasket and is secured closed with chrome plated 3mm DIN type quarter turn latches. The top of the body is equipped with a sloping roof under an angle of between 8 and 20 degrees sloping toward the front, giving a 0.39" (10mm) overhang to remove liquids away from the door opening. The sloped top does not allow liquid pooling on the top of the enclosure, eliminating a potential dangerous situation of water dropping into the enclosure once the door is opened.
