What is BOPLA Alubos?

The Alubos series is a modular aluminium enclosure platform designed around flexible extrusion profiles. These profiles can be supplied in different lengths and configurations, allowing the enclosure to be adapted to many electronics designs.

The system includes several enclosure variants, enabling engineers to choose the structure that best suits their application.

The aluminium construction provides mechanical stability, good thermal properties and a professional finish suitable for industrial environments.

Typical protection levels reach up to IP65, depending on configuration and sealing options.

Key advantages of the Alubos series

Flexible enclosure concept

Alubos offers several profile types and sizes, allowing engineers to select the most suitable enclosure design for their electronics.

The flexible profile concept also makes it possible to adapt enclosure length to specific PCB layouts or internal components.

Robust aluminium construction

The aluminium profile structure provides high mechanical stability while maintaining a lightweight enclosure design.

This makes Alubos suitable for demanding industrial electronics where durability and reliability are important.

Good thermal properties

Aluminium enclosures naturally dissipate heat more effectively than many plastic housings. This can help improve thermal management and support stable electronics operation.

Certain profile versions are also available with integrated cooling elements for applications where thermal management is critical.

EMC-friendly enclosure design

Alubos enclosures are designed with conductive contact surfaces between enclosure parts. This supports electromagnetic compatibility and can be combined with EMC sealing when increased shielding is required.

Suitable for HMI and interface integration

Many Alubos profiles feature recessed surfaces that are well suited for membrane keypads, displays and user interfaces.

This makes the system a strong option for instrumentation and control electronics.

Wide range of accessories

A large ecosystem of accessories allows the enclosure to be tailored to the application.

Typical accessories include:

• End covers
• Front panels
• EMC seals
• Standard seals
• Mounting components
• Interface panels

Alubos enclosure variants

The Alubos family includes several enclosure structures to support different installation requirements.

Closed aluminium profiles

Closed profiles form a complete enclosure body where electronics can be integrated with end covers and front panels. These are commonly used for instrumentation or electronic modules.

Horizontally divided profiles

Horizontally divided versions allow the enclosure to be opened into two halves. This simplifies assembly and service access to internal electronics.

Profiles open on one side

Open-side profiles allow engineers to integrate a custom front panel, interface plate or display solution.

This makes them particularly useful for control devices and HMI-based systems.

Wall-mount enclosure versions

Some Alubos versions include integrated wall brackets, making them ideal for wall-mounted control units or measurement equipment.

Profiles with cooling elements

For electronics that generate more heat, selected Alubos variants include integrated cooling profiles that help improve heat dissipation.

Customizing Alubos enclosures

Many electronics projects require enclosure customization. Through ETM4U, Alubos enclosures can be adapted to match your product design.

Typical customization options may include:

• Customized profile lengths
• Interface cut-outs
• Front panel integration
• Connector openings
• Engraving or marking
• EMC sealing options

ETM4U supports customers in selecting the most suitable configuration and accessories to create a complete enclosure solution.

Typical applications for BOPLA Alubos

Thanks to its flexible aluminium design, Alubos is widely used across many electronics sectors.

Common applications include:

• Industrial electronics
• Instrumentation and measurement equipment
• Control units
• Automation interfaces
• Sensor electronics
• Laboratory devices
• Portable or wall-mounted electronic systems

The enclosure system combines durability, flexibility and professional appearance, making it suitable for both industrial and technical environments.

Accessories and complementary components

To support different electronics designs, the Alubos platform includes a range of accessories that help complete the enclosure system.

Available accessories may include:

• End covers
• Front panels
• EMC sealing options
• Standard sealing options
• Mounting hardware
• Interface plates

These components allow engineers to configure the enclosure according to their mechanical and environmental requirements.
