The FM40ED finger guard with an e-coating combines a protection function with an attractive design

The new finger guard by SEPA EUROPE is available in the sizes ranging from 40 mm to 120 mm. It not only has IP40 protection but also a particularly high quality finish for installation areas that are visually perceptible.

The new FM guard provides developers and device manufacturers alike with a solution that combines the functional protection requirements with a high-quality harmonious appearance. The guard is available in sizes ranging from 40 mm to 120 mm, provides protection against accidental contact and prevents the penetration of dirt and dust particles that are larger than 0.5mm.

The FM guard has the IP40 protection rating and has a metal frame with a fine wire mesh. It is screwed directly to the metal housing using countersunk screws. This construction is easy to install and is a robust solution for industrial devices and housings.

The e-coating is a key characteristic. The coating in question is an electrophoretic coating where the metallic component is immersed into a paint bath and evenly coated using an electric field. The result is a homogeneous, resilient surface with excellent coating of the edges. This process has several advantages: The e-coating improves protection against corrosion, provides a uniform surface finish and ensures high process reliability in series production. The clean aesthetic appearance simultaneously contributes, in particular in the line of sight, to a significantly higher perception of the product quality.
