Well-known industrial Hammond enclosures of 1554 and 1555 series belong to the best in the field of rugged plastic boxes for a long time. If we are looking for a good middle way between mechanical strength, high resistance to various negative impacts and the cost, then the 1554 and 1555 series is definitely a reliable choice.
“Standardized” types, offered by various manufacturers, have been profiled on the market with enclosures over the decades. However, when we take a closer look at the offer of various manufacturers in more detail, we find minor differences that ultimately have a substantial impact on whether the box meets our requirements and expectations or not. Wall thickness, quality of a plastic, internal PCB mounting options, accessories… these are just a few key aspects.
Hammond gave the 1554 and 1555 series everything needed and recently added 6 new sizes, which together form 36 new configurations.
What’s the main difference between 1554 and 1555 series?
1554 is a classic well-established series available in both ABS and PC (polycarbonate). Stainless steel screws and stainless steel threaded bushings practically eliminate corrosion, and high-quality silicone sealing together with a precision design allows IP68 protection for polycarbonate (PC) versions. The bottom of the box is always light gray (RAL 7035) and the lid can be gray, transparent or smoked.
The 1555 Series is based on the 1554 series but represents a more modern alternative. It has an elegantly recessed surface on the lid for easy installation of, for example, a membrane keypad, various labels, etc. At the same time, it also has standoffs PCB on the inner side of the lid (not only at the bottom part).
Polycarbonate versions have a high UV resistance and are therefore also suitable for outdoor use.
The new available sizes for 1554 and 1555 series are:
●Type L: 105 x 105 x 60 mm
