When properly sized and built, a quality enclosure will create a protective, clean room-style environment for valuable electronics.
A good enclosure will protect equipment from dust and abrasive particles and dripping oils, lubricants and other liquids, while also cooling the components with fans and providing fresh, clean air.
Space is at a premium at most manufacturing, office and warehouse locations, so it’s imperative for organizations to provide proper measurements when ordering an enclosure. This will ensure the enclosure fits the equipment properly while not taking up unnecessary, and obviously valuable, space.
Are you ready to learn how to measure for an enclosure? At DustShield, we’ve made it extremely simple to get the right-sized enclosure for your equipment with the following measuring guides. So, let’s grab a tape measure, writing utensil and paper and get started.
When measuring equipment, make sure you hold the tape measure at the very edge of the equipment to get the most accurate sizing possible. Depending on the enclosure and equipment it’ll be housing, you might need to measure one or multiple pieces of equipment. Here are some of the most common types of equipment and the measurements needed to produce a quality protective enclosure for them.

Monitor
Paper Printer
