<p class="MsoNormal">I have seen the custom jobs that you can get from the likes of MFB (<a href="http://mfb.com.au/products/outdoor/outdoor-housing/">http://mfb.com.au/products/outdoor/outdoor-housing/</a>) but wanted to know if there is more off-the-shelf
/ better products available.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We already use some for our SCADA and PLC systems in the field but always looking for better options, pretty sure these are custom designed and built to order.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I would be interested in hearing experiences with these type of enclosures if anyone would care to share. Searching back through the forums there has only been one post I could find regarding this topic in 2010, hopefully a few more answers
now (<a href="http://lists.ausnog.net/pipermail/ausnog/2010-March/004972.html">http://lists.ausnog.net/pipermail/ausnog/2010-March/004972.html</a>)
