Housing Selection
For an imperial version of this page click here.







For water depths of up to 70 Meters and temperatures of up to 50ºC our standard Polyurethane housings are normally suitable. Details can be seen in the table below.

Depths beyond 70 Meters and Temperatures over 50ºC require a metal housing. For small sizes we offer our Aluminium Fox Box. For more details click here.

Larger rectangular housings can be fabricated from plate. Examples can be seen by clicking here.

Depths beyond 500 meters would generally require a cylindrical housing to cope with the pressure. Please complete our enquiry form for us to asses your exact requirements.
