A VHX has no eyepieces. It is a camera and a 27" monitor, which means nobody's face has to be at the instrument — and that changes what an enclosure can be. Every other scope on this page gets an open-front hood because the operator has to be inside the working volume. The VHX does not, so this one closes.
That matters because of where these live. Keyence puts the VHX on shop floors, next to machining centres and deburring benches, in failure-analysis labs and incoming-inspection cells. Coolant mist, grinding dust and airborne swarf land on a six-figure optical instrument all day. This encloses it and puts a door on the front.
CNC-cut panels, all brackets and assembly hardware, and written instructions. Fans and filters are sold separately.
This enclosure contains — it keeps shop-floor dust and mist off the instrument and puts a door between your VHX and the aisle. We make no cleanliness-class, particle-count or airflow claims, and this is not an ISO-classified cleanroom enclosure. If you need a validated ISO 5 environment, that is laminar-flow capital equipment from a lab-furniture vendor, not a flat-pack from us.
VHX-7000 and VHX-7000N are discontinued but there is a large installed base, and the current VHX-X1 has a different main-unit footprint (635 × 450 × 132 mm stored, 10.8 kg). Tell us which generation, which head and which stage you are running — including the VHX-SL1F 300 × 300 mm ultra-large stage if you have one — and we will size it. Same applies to the VHX-XF.
