What is an enclosure?

General purpose enclosures are protective boxes, used to house industrial, electronic and other sensitive equipment. Depending on the environment, different levels of protection may be required. These particular boxes enclose electrical components and shield them from EMI/RFI and high temperatures (up to 250°C).
