Electrical enclosure Rittal 9514.000 — polyamide/polycarbonate, 180×90×110 mm, IP66

Rittal 9514.000 is a compact electrical enclosure made from fibre-glass reinforced polycarbonate body with a polyamide/polycarbonate cover, offering IP66 protection. Its external dimensions are approximately 180×90×110 mm, providing a small but robust housing for electrical and electronic components. The enclosure is suitable for indoor and outdoor use, machine mounting and panel installations where dust-tight and water-resistant protection is required. Available with either a grey or transparent cover, it allows choice between visual inspection of contents and opaque protection.

Advantages

The enclosure combines durable, impact-resistant materials with a tight IP66 rating to protect against dust ingress and strong jets of water. The compact footprint and standard rectangular shape simplify mounting on machines, panels or walls. A transparent cover option permits visual checks without opening the enclosure, while the grey cover provides discrete protection. The materials resist environmental stress and provide electrical insulation for internal components.

Suitable for

• Housing small control modules, terminal blocks and sensors
• Protecting circuit components in industrial machinery and automation panels
• Outdoor junctions and connections exposed to dust and water spray
• Prototyping and small electronics projects requiring a compact enclosure

Key specifications

• Material: fibre-glass reinforced polycarbonate body with polyamide/polycarbonate cover
• Ingress protection: IP66 (dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets)
• External dimensions: 180 mm (width) × 90 mm (depth) × 110 mm (height)
• Cover options: grey (opaque) or transparent for visual inspection
• Mounting: suitable for wall, panel or machine mounting (mounting details depend on application)

How to use

Open the cover using the appropriate fasteners and place internal components on a backplate or mounting bosses as required. Route cables through sealed entry points or use compatible cable glands to maintain the IP66 rating. Ensure components inside do not block sealing surfaces and that gaskets are clean and correctly seated before closing the cover. When installed outdoors, mount the enclosure so that drainage and access for maintenance are considered.

Recommendations

Choose the transparent cover when regular visual inspection of indicators or status LEDs is needed without opening the enclosure; select the grey cover when you require a more discreet or UV-resistant appearance. Use compatible cable glands rated for IP66 and avoid excessive internal heat buildup by selecting components with appropriate power dissipation or by adding ventilation or thermal management outside the sealed enclosure.
