Simple Indoor RF Enclosures, Boxes and Cabinets: NEMA 1 & 2

Just for basic electronic enclosures and small projects some (shielded) NEMA 1 and NEMA 2 enclosures (shielding) and boxes will do the simple job. Those NEMA boxes are low cost boxes for most electronic applications.

Outdoor Water Resistant / Rain Resistant RF Enclosures, Boxes and Cabinets: NEMA 3R

Also sometimes people use the Shielded NEMA 3R box for common electronics and simple electrical applications that go outside. Nemaco can offer this water / rain resistant enclosures and boxes. Since the NEMA 3R enclosures require more material and hardware, then typically, the enclosures cost more than the NEMA 1 & 2 enclosures. Often, Nemaco can customize and modify NEMA 3R enclosures per customer specifications.

Production Manufacturing for RF Enclosures

Nemaco can offer large production quantities of the small NEMA 1, 2, 3 and 3R boxes. For other types of applications that require better environmental resistant, then NEMA 4, 4X, 6, 6P and 12 can be used depending the requirements. Note that better enclosures tend to last longer than the low cost enclosures.
