Keeping traffic control electronics humming along happily is what 7870 Stego’s hose-proof hood FFH 086 does.


Water is a threat to electrics and electronics in harsh industrial environments or outdoor applications. Stego has on display examples of their made-to-measure FFH 086 for intake and exit opening in such enclosures.

The company also warns that intake and exit openings of filter fan systems can themselves corrode and so jeopardise an enclosure’s electronics. Importantly, the FFH 086 seals these areas securely according to protection class IP56.

Developed for the filter fans of the Stego series FPI/FPO 018 and FF 018, they effectively protect against water jets and foreign particles by means of a silicone seal. The FFH 086 hose-proof hood also fits all manufacturers' filter fans with standard cut-out sizes.

The FFH features stainless steel construction that is highly weather- and impact-resistant. This protects against environmental influences and external intrusions due to mechanical stress and impact. Optional use of a security screw prevents unauthorised removal of the protective cover.
