The enclosures chosen by TecQuipment and Spelsberg UK to house the sensitive PCBs belong to the TK range of
enclosures. These are industrial enclosures designed to suit a wide range of applications, i.e. they are available in
different sizes and materials.
Spelsberg is one of the world’s leading
manufacturers of electrical equipment
enclosures and distribution boards
and, like TecQuipment, has a long
tradition of technical innovation and
quality products.
Dionne Knowles, Marketing Manager
at TecQuipment, commented: “With
our reputation for quality, we ensure
every component used is super-
efficient and reliable, like those
provided by Spelsberg UK. Spelsberg
also provides solid customer service,
with teams that work closely with
our engineers to test and install the
right product with the quality that we
demand for our equipment.”
Thanks to in-house certified testing
facilities located at its German
headquarters, Spelsberg products
can be used with confidence in
TecQuipment’s overseas markets. In
fact, Spelsberg can independently
conduct analyses and certifications
according to Underwriters Laboratories
(UL), for the U.S. and Canada, and VDE
and DIN EN, for Europe.
The enclosures chosen by
TecQuipment and Spelsberg UK to
house the sensitive PCBs belong to
the TK range of enclosures. These are
industrial enclosures designed to suit
a wide range of applications, i.e. they
are available in different sizes and
materials.
More precisely, based on the specific
FC300 Open Channel Flume design
requirements, the TK enclosures
selected are made of high-strength
polycarbonate and feature IP68 rating
against dust and water ingress, IK07
protection against external mechanical
stresses, and a transparent lid to read
the PCB display.
In addition, while the TK series are
available in a range of standard
formats, Spelsberg worked with
TecQuipment to design and supply
a customised solution to deliver
improved performance. The
customisation service was carried
out in-house at Spelsberg UK’s
headquarters in Telford. With four
CNC machines and an assembly
production line, Spelsberg is able to
produce bespoke turnkey solutions.
As a result, the enclosures models with
the optimal design were provided to
TecQuipment within two weeks.
Dionne Knowles and Peter Skinner
agreed that the collaboration with
Spelsberg UK was extremely fruitful
and contributed to the creation of
high-quality teaching equipment.
Dionne added: “The product is selling
well around the world, from Derby,
UK, through to Columbia and Peru.
With such a wide customer base it’s
so important to be working with
supply partners we trust.”
Clare McCusker, Area Sales Manager
for Spelsberg UK, concluded:
“We have been working with
TecQuipment on a number of
projects, supplying customised high-
quality enclosures. The company is
well known worldwide for its state-
of-the-art products and services and
we are happy to play a part in the
continued success of their business
as well as their mission to maintain a
no.1 position in their market.”
