AE compact enclosure for railways

The wall-mounted compact enclosure AE range is ideal for railways as it offers corrosion resistance and high protection. The IP69K rating guarantees a watertight enclosure even under adverse conditions. It also offers a high resistance to temperature fluctuations, exhaust vapours and humidity. The lock, hinges and mounting plate are vibration resistant, and perfect for wall and pole mounting.
