Following customer demand, OKW have extended
their award winning Minitec range of pocket-size enclosures. These highly
attractive multi-colored housings have been designed for personal electronic
devices which can be carried in the hand, on a key ring, wrist strap, or
lanyard. Typical applications include medical devices, personal safety,
detection, monitoring, emergency call, audio, alarm, and remote control
electronics.
The Minitec range consists of two basic
designs: Edge—rectangular style cases—and Drop—droplet style cases. The Edge
models are now available in three larger sizes: length 3.07 in., width 1.89
in., and heights of 0.78, 0.94, and 1.02 in. The extra heights provide
additional internal space for the PCB, miniature keypad, or other components.
When taking into account the new sizes and
all the different styles, formats, and color options, over 200 individual Minitec
enclosures can be configured by the electronics designer. The range now
consists of eight individual case sizes with dimensions ranging from 2.0 x 1.25
x 0.51 in. to 3.3 x 2.08 x 0.75 in.
Each case consists of a top part, base part,
and a soft intermediate ring. The top and base parts are molded in off-white or
lava gray ABS, or black infra-red transparent PMMA (UL 94 HB). The intermediate
rings are molded in soft touch TPE in four standard colors: volcano gray,
orange, lime green, and bright blue. The intermediate rings are available
plain, or with molded eyelets or strap loops for fitting the accessory key
ring, wrist strap or lanyards.
