## **Types of Wall Box Materials**

**ABS Plastic:** This lightweight and affordable material offers good impact resistance and excellent electrical insulation. ABS plastic wall storage boxes are ideal for indoor applications in moderate environments. However, they have a limited temperature range and are not suitable for harsh outdoor conditions.

**Polycarbonate:** Extremely durable and impact-resistant, polycarbonate wall boxes offer a good temperature range and UV-resistant options. They're well-suited for outdoor applications or areas requiring high impact resistance. While more expensive than ABS, polycarbonate can be affected by certain chemicals.

**Aluminium:** Wall mounted enclosures made from aluminium provide excellent heat dissipation and corrosion resistance, with a good strength-to-weight ratio. They're ideal for applications requiring EMI/RFI shielding or heat management. Although more expensive than plastic options, aluminium boxes can be dented or deformed under high impact.

**Steel:** Very strong and durable, steel wall storage boxes are suitable for larger enclosures and come in a variety of finishes. They're best for industrial environments or where high strength is required. Steel boxes are heavy and can rust if not properly treated, but they offer excellent protection in demanding settings.

**Stainless Steel:** Extremely corrosion-resistant, stainless steel wall boxes are suitable for food and pharmaceutical industries and harsh environments. While they're the most expensive and heaviest option, they offer unparalleled durability in coastal areas or other challenging conditions.

When selecting material for your wall storage boxes, consider factors such as the installation environment, required durability, budget, and any industry-specific regulations. Each material offers unique benefits, so choose the one that best fits your specific application needs.

## **Understanding IP Ratings for Wall Storage Boxes**

IP (Ingress Protection) ratings are crucial when selecting the right wall mounted storage box or electrical enclosure, or cabinet for your specific application. These ratings indicate the level of protection a wall box provides against solid objects and liquids, ensuring the safety and longevity of the enclosed components.

**Common IP ratings for wall boxes:**

- IP54: Protected against dust and splashing water
- IP65: Dust-tight and protected against water jets
- IP66: Dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets
- IP67: Dust-tight and protected against temporary immersion

**Choosing the right IP rating:**

Consider your installation environment:

- Indoor, clean environments: IP54 may suffice
- Outdoor or dusty indoor areas: IP65 or IP66 recommended
- Areas prone to flooding: IP67 necessary

Remember, higher IP ratings generally mean increased protection but may also come with a higher cost. Choose the most appropriate rating for your specific needs to ensure adequate protection without overspending.

## **Wall Boxes for Different Environments**

**Electrical:** Wall boxes are frequently used to secure access to delicate or potentially dangerous electrical systems such as fuse boxes of power inlets. When it is important to keep electrical systems free from environmental factors such as moisture, for safety and functionally, high IP rated wall boxes are used normally with suitable locks.

**General Purpose Wall Boxes:** For secure outdoor or indoor storage, wall boxes are lockable, providing storage for important or potentially hazardous items. With stainless steel, steel, polyester, plastic, ABS, thermoplastic, aluminium or other metal versions available, the sturdy construction of these wall boxes ensures a high level of security with and without a lock.

**Marine Environments Wall Boxes:** IP67 wall-mounted enclosures are available, with material ensuring protection in hose down environments and even some marine applications with seals for the base and lid or door and are lockable.

**Transparent Doors for Wall Boxes:** Wall-mounted cabinets often come in ranges with transparent doors. Although this may lower the impact resilience of the box, it allows you to view the contents within the storage box.

## **Industrial Applications of Wall Boxes**

From housing [temperature measurement devices](https://my.rs-online.com/web/content/discovery/ideas-and-advice/why-temperature-measurement-remains-pivotal-in-malaysia-s-rapidly-advancing-industries) to [power tools](https://my.rs-online.com/web/content/discovery/ideas-and-advice/power-tools-101-essential-equipment-for-every-industry-professional), wall boxes play an indispensable role in various industries across Malaysia by enhancing operational efficiency, ensuring worker safety, and managing a variety of electrical and electronic systems.

### **IT Facilities**

In the dynamic IT sector, wall boxes are critical for housing sensitive networking, electronic, and communication equipment that require constant protection from environmental hazards such as heat, humidity, and dust. For example, data centres utilise advanced wall-mounted enclosures to maintain the integrity of their servers and networking hardware, effectively preventing system failures due to overheating or particle ingress. These enclosures often come with climate control systems to manage internal temperatures and ensure optimal performance of the enclosed electronics.

### **Medical Facilities**

Wall boxes in Malaysian hospitals and clinics ensure that devices such as ventilators, monitors, and diagnostic equipment are protected from environmental contaminants like airborne pathogens and liquid spills. These wall-mounted enclosures are designed with non-porous materials that are easy to clean and disinfect, thereby adhering to strict hygiene standards required in medical environments. Additionally, they often feature locking mechanisms to secure sensitive equipment from unauthorised access or tampering.

### **Construction Sites**

Construction sites in Malaysia present a challenging environment for electrical systems due to exposure to dust, debris, and variable weather conditions. Rugged wall-mounted enclosures or [outdoor junction boxes](https://my.rs-online.com/web/c/enclosures-server-racks/enclosures/junction-boxes/) are used extensively on these sites to shield electrical components and tools from physical damage. These boxes are typically made from durable materials such as reinforced plastic or metal and are designed to withstand impacts, moisture, and other abrasive conditions. They not only protect electrical fittings but also help in organising power tools and construction equipment, reducing the risk of accidents and enhancing operational safety.

### **Office & Industrial Facilities**

In modern office environments, wall boxes are instrumental in managing cable and network connections, contributing to safer and more organised workspaces. They facilitate the segregation and routing of power, data, and [ethernet cables](https://my.rs-online.com/web/c/cables-wires/networking-coaxial-cables/ethernet-cable/), preventing clutter and minimising the risk of tripping hazards. In more industrial settings, such as manufacturing plants, wall boxes safeguard critical control systems and machinery from industrial interference and debris.
