Environmental Covers & Enclosures

Environmental Covers & Enclosures (Weather/Waterproof)

Designed for protection against false fire alarms and to prevent theft, vandalism and weather ingress to manual call points, the range of IP-rated enclosures and protective covers offers a reliable way to extend the life of exposed fire and safety devices. These covers protect against water, dust, grime, impact and accidental or malicious misuse without restricting legitimate emergency operation.

What This Product Group Covers

Environmental covers and enclosures are used wherever fire alarm call points, switches, emergency buttons and similar devices are installed in demanding locations. These may be outdoor walls, wash-down areas, car parks, industrial facilities, food processing plants, swimming pools, saline atmospheres or any place where weather, moisture, dust or heavy use would otherwise shorten the working life of the protected device.

On the FUMARO page, this category focuses on tough polycarbonate protective covers that help prevent physical damage, accidental activation and environmental ingress. Some models are intended for general indoor and outdoor use, while others are designed specifically for harsh environments and higher IP protection levels such as IP54, IP56 or IP66.
