Materials, Certifications & Standards
Stainless Steel
Type 316 stainless steel is the primary material for our NEMA 6 and NEMA 6P enclosures due to its superior corrosion resistance and strength under pressure.
Aluminium
Aluminum alloys like 5052 and 6061 are used in some NEMA 6 and NEMA 6P applications, though they require protective coatings to meet standards.
Polyurethane
Rigid polyurethane composite is primarily used in our SUBSEA enclosures, designed for extreme pressure environments.
Brass
Brass is used in SLAYSON® enclosures where conductivity, corrosion resistance, and durability are key factors.
Explore our specific NEMA 6 / IP67 and NEMA 6P / IP68 submersible material application guides to find the right alloy for your environment.
UL
UL certification is a safety standard issued by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) to verify that products meet rigorous electrical, mechanical, and fire protection requirements. UL-certified enclosures undergo strict testing to ensure compliance with industry regulations, enhancing reliability and safety in industrial, commercial, and hazardous environments where regulatory approval is essential.
NEMA 6
NEMA 6 is a rating by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) for enclosures that provide complete protection against dust and strong water ingress, including temporary submersion. Though not rated for prolonged immersion like NEMA 6P, it ensures robust sealing and reliability in demanding environments, ideal for industrial, outdoor, and washdown applications where short-term submersion or heavy water exposure is a concern.
NEMA 6P
NEMA 6P is a rating defined by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) for enclosures that provide complete protection against dust, water ingress, and corrosion. It ensures durability in harsh conditions, including prolonged submersion. These enclosures are used in industrial, marine, and underground applications where environmental sealing is critical.
IP67
IP67 is an Ingress Protection rating defined by IEC 60529, indicating complete resistance to dust and temporary water submersion up to 1 meter. The first digit (6) signifies total dust-tight protection, while the second digit (7) confirms waterproofing for short periods under defined depths, making it ideal for harsh and wet environments.
IP68
IP68 is an Ingress Protection rating defined by IEC 60529, indicating complete resistance to dust and prolonged water submersion beyond 1 meter. The first digit (6) signifies total dust-tight protection, while the second digit (8) confirms waterproofing under specified depths and durations, making it ideal for harsh and submerged environments.
IK10
IK10 is the highest impact protection rating under the IEC 62262 standard, indicating an enclosure can withstand 20 joules of impact energy. This equates to a 5kg object dropped from 400mm. IK10-rated enclosures provide maximum resistance against mechanical impacts, making them ideal for vandal-prone and high-risk environments.
EMC
EMC-shielded enclosures are designed to block electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), ensuring compliance with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards. They feature conductive materials, gaskets, and coatings that prevent signal leakage and external interference, making them essential for protecting sensitive electronics in industrial, military, and medical applications.
Modification & Customization
Modified off-the-shelf (MOTS) Enclosures
Sometimes a standard SLAYSON® enclosure with accessories doesn’t meet your specifications, or the requirements set out by your project. In this case, modify one of our enclosures to make it project-specific.
Start by selecting your enclosure and accessories from our extensive range, then contact us with your project-specific requirements. Modifications could include instructions on where to add cutouts for cable glands or welded in place hubs, or the customization of internal mount plates or standoffs.
Our fast quotation and modification service means we deliver the exact configuration you need quickly and efficiently to minimize downtime.
Custom Enclosures
If you need a customized submersible enclosure, we will design and engineer one to your exact specifications. Our process is fast and accurate; using our existing proven baseline engineering our team will work closely with you to create engineering data packs and CAD models for custom enclosures that meet your precise application and environmental requirements.
