Polycarbonate enclosures can withstand over 900 pounds of impact, which is more than four times the impact resistance of fiberglass enclosures.  Marshall Wolf Automation offers you two choices in a polycarbonate enclosure.  The innovative new Attabox Heartland Series Industrial Enclosures, available with UL certification improves end-use functionality and structural durability while remaining cost competitive.

Each Iboco polycarbonate enclosure comes with the DIN rail pre-mounted and will accept any DIN rail mountable device with industry standard faceplates. Mounting breakers, fuseholders, timers, relays, volt/amp meters, mini-PLCs and thermostats (to name a few) is now fast, easy and convenient. The front cover has knockouts in 9mm increments so matching to DIN components is a snap – literally. Shorter components can be mounted on the rail if it is not necessary for them to protrude through the front cover eustachian plate. And best of all, the hinged and lockable see-through front cover allows you to monitor your devices or to make adjustments without having to open the panel. These boxes are safe and convenient.
