Plastic surface-mounted waterproof enclosure | IP65 | IK08 | with mounting plate | ABS | grey RAL7035 | PP3

The PP3 series plastic enclosure is designed for mounting power distribution, control and automation equipment where there is moisture, dust or splashing water. The body is made of ABS plastic, the opaque door has a sealing gasket, and inside there is a galvanised steel mounting plate. The series includes 10 sizes: from a compact 300×200×130 mm to 800×600×260 mm.

Key point:
This is a versatile enclosure for when equipment must be protected from water and dust and a metal cabinet is unnecessary or unsuitable because of corrosion. Plastic does not rust, the body does not need earthing like a metal box, and the mounting plate lets you fix not only modular devices but also standard equipment – contactors, power supplies, controllers, terminal blocks.

Why choose the PP3 enclosure?
One enclosure works both for an automation panel with standard equipment and for a modular distribution board – just choose the plate or the modular insert. The wide size range means you do not have to buy an oversized enclosure.

• IP65 sealing – equipment is protected from dust and water jets; suitable for damp rooms and outdoor installation under a canopy.
• Removable galvanised mounting plate – equipment can be assembled and wired in the workshop and simply inserted on site.
• ABS body – rust-free, resistant to oils, salts and alkalis; suitable for agricultural and industrial environments.
• IK08 impact resistance – the enclosure withstands accidental impacts in production or warehouse areas.
• Wide temperature range – from −35 °C to +65 °C, suitable for unheated rooms and outdoor sites in the Baltic climate.
• Modular equipment option – with a separately purchased modular insert the enclosure becomes a waterproof distribution board.
• 10 sizes in one series – choose the enclosure by the actual amount of equipment and leave spare space for expansion.

• Control panels for pumping stations, boreholes and wastewater treatment plants
• Ventilation, heating and HVAC automation panels
• Farms, grain dryers, warehouses and other dusty or damp premises
• Temporary construction site power and distribution boards
• Outdoor lighting, gate and barrier control equipment (installed under a canopy)
• Car washes, food industry and other premises washed down with water
• Enclosures for CCTV and communication equipment (routers, power supplies)
• Solar PV combiner and protection boxes

If you need a borehole pump control panel with a contactor, thermal overload relay, pressure switch terminals and a 24 V power supply, a 400×300×170 mm enclosure (PP3004) is usually enough: equipment is mounted on a DIN rail screwed to the mounting plate, cables enter from below through glands, and the panel is fixed to the pump room wall where there is moisture and condensation.

• Installation and connection must be carried out by a qualified electrician with the power switched off.
• Drill cable holes only to the required diameter and use a correctly sized gland in each – otherwise IP65 is not maintained.
• Outdoors and in damp rooms, bring cables in from below so water does not run along the cable into the enclosure.
• Connect the mounting plate to the protective earth (PE) conductor if equipment with metal housings is mounted on it.
• Do not damage the door gasket and fully tighten the locks – a poorly closed door does not protect against water.
• For high-power equipment, assess heat generation – the temperature rises faster in a sealed plastic enclosure.

Quick selection guide

Is a mounting plate included?
Yes, every enclosure has a removable 1 mm galvanised steel mounting plate.

Can circuit breakers be mounted on a DIN rail?
Yes – screw a DIN rail to the mounting plate or buy a separate modular insert with a cover (e.g. PMK3108 for 600×400×200 mm).

Can the enclosure be installed outdoors?
Yes, IP65 and −35 °C … +65 °C allow it, but we recommend installing it under a canopy so the ABS is not exposed to direct sunlight.

Does the enclosure have pre-made cable holes?
No, holes are drilled during installation according to the number of cables, and glands are purchased separately.

What do 800 A and 690 V mean?
These are the enclosure limit values declared by the manufacturer; the actual permissible current depends on the installed devices, conductors and heat dissipation inside.

Can I order an enclosure in another colour?
The standard colour is grey RAL7035; for other colours and lead times, contact our sales team.
