Fibox ARCA‑IPW Series: A Durable, Watertight Solution for HMI Protection

Written By Jill Ryczek

When designing an enclosure system that requires both visibility and access to internal components, a reliable protection window becomes essential. Fibox’s ARCA‑IPW Series provides a clean, durable solution for safeguarding HMIs, displays, and instrumentation while helping maintain a NEMA 4X rating.

Built from high‑quality polycarbonate, the ARCA‑IPW Series offers a strong, lightweight, and corrosion‑resistant window that integrates seamlessly into a wide range of enclosure applications.


Purpose‑Built for HMI Access

The ARCA‑IPW Series is designed as a Protection Window / HMI Cover, giving users a secure way to access controls without opening the main enclosure. This helps support equipment uptime and reduces exposure to dust, moisture, and environmental contaminants.

Each model features a hinged cover design, allowing smooth operation and easy access when needed.


Flexible Options for Different Applications

Fibox offers the IPW Series in several configurations so users can match the window to their specific requirements. Available options include:

Locking Variants

  • B – Standard

  • K – Key lock

  • SC – Screw cover

  • W – Wing knob

Cover Styles

  • T – Transparent

  • Opaque versions also available

Depth Options

  • Standard depth

  • F (Flat) versions for applications requiring a slimmer profile

This range of options makes the ARCA‑IPW Series adaptable to a variety of industrial and commercial environments.

Available Sizes

The ARCA‑IPW Series is offered in five JIC‑style sizes, making it easy to pair the window with common enclosure footprints:

  • 10 × 8 × 3.31 in (also available in flat 2.31 in depth)

  • 12 × 10 × 3.31 in (flat version available)

  • 14 × 12 × 3.31 in (flat version available)

  • 16 × 14 × 3.31 in

  • 18 × 16 × 3.31 in

These standardized dimensions help simplify integration into new builds or retrofits.

Beyond protection, the ARCA‑IPW Series provides a polished, professional appearance for any enclosure. The polycarbonate construction maintains clarity and durability, while the hinged design and locking options support both usability and security.
