Which enclosure should you choose for mounting a PCB?

For mounting a printed circuit board (PCB), we recommend our TK range of enclosures, made of polycarbonate (PC) and polystyrene (PS), used with our TK MLH-55/75 and TK DST accessories. We developed these accessories specifically to mount PCBs within TK enclosures, and they make it possible to install a board without having to drill holes.

PCBs are essential for the electrical connection and mechanical support of electronic components, which is why it is crucial to select a suitable structure in which they can be safely installed and housed. The key element to look for when specifying PCB mounting options is the ability to maintain the structural integrity of the PCB and the enclosure. This is what makes sure the electrical equipment functions correctly and is sufficiently protected against environmental conditions.

Choosing this set-up also brings the wider benefits of our TK series of industrial enclosures (https://www.spelsberg.co.uk/highlights/industrial-enclosures/). They are available in multiple sizes and are fully customisable, and they offer optimum UV protection and resistance to elevated temperatures. They can also feature:

• ingress protection (IP) up to IP66 against dust and water ingress

• IK07/IK08 protection against external mechanical stresses

• a transparent lid, so any PCB display can be read without opening the structure
