Securely Encapsulating Measurement and Control Technology
ROSE Systemtechnik’s sensor enclosures are specifically designed to protect measurement and control technology (MSR). These enclosure solutions are highly robust and manufactured with precise tolerances to ensure an exact fit. Users can choose between custom-designed sensor enclosures and standard versions made from a variety of materials.
Protection in Harsh Environments
Measurement and control technology is often used in challenging environments. Temperature fluctuations, vibrations, dust, and dirt pose risks to sensitive components. ROSE Systemtechnik’s enclosures provide reliable protection for MSR technology in a wide range of applications worldwide. Whether aluminum, plastic, or stainless steel enclosures, the specialists from Porta Westfalica offer the right solution for every application.
Versatile Applications
ROSE’s IoT enclosures enable precise and reliable measurement data acquisition, such as force, flow rate, heat, and pressure. In fluid technology, for example, ROSE sensor enclosures safeguard the functionality of hydraulic and pneumatic components. They are also ideal for protecting components in heating, lighting, and security systems in smart homes. Additionally, enclosures from ROSE encapsulate the electronics of industrial monitoring and production control systems.
Custom Designs
Customers can choose between a customized sensor enclosure or a standard product. ROSE develops application-specific enclosures for MSR components that are tailored to exact requirements and designed with an attractive appearance. Services include mechanical processing, surface finishing, and painting in the customer’s corporate design. Both custom-built and standard enclosures can also be equipped with customer-specified components as needed.
Standard Enclosures for Small Quantities
For some projects, developing a custom sensor enclosure is not cost-effective. To provide a simple, affordable, and quick solution for protecting measurement technology, ROSE offers the Aluform series. These enclosures are made from die-cast aluminum (AC-AlSi12 (Fe)) and are pre-configured to accommodate front foils and membrane keypads. Additionally, Aluform enclosures allow for easy installation of circuit boards and PCBs.
Like all ROSE aluminum enclosures, Aluform sensor enclosures feature external mounting channels, ensuring that internal electronics remain protected from metal shavings. Customers can choose from a wide range of machining options, around 300 enclosure colors, and custom surface branding with logos. Special versions are also available for applications in explosion-prone environments.
Well-Protected Against External Influences
Aluform sensor enclosures are available in various protection classes, including IP66, IP67, and IP69, ensuring reliable protection of internal measurement technology against water and dust. They also withstand temperatures ranging from –20 °C to +120 °C. Gaskets containing metallic particles provide excellent EMC shielding. Meanwhile, plastic enclosures are vapor-coated internally with an EMC shield to ensure electromagnetic compatibility.
ROSE sensor enclosures not only protect electronic components from external influences but also help organize the integrated MSR technology. This significantly simplifies maintenance and component replacement.
