eSSL MB160 Metal Enclosure with Lock & Acrylic Front

Description

A consular section in Chanakyapuri, Delhi, runs a tightly controlled staff entry — and a separate visitor-handling protocol that requires unbroken attendance records for the local hires inside the diplomatic perimeter. The eSSL MB160 biometric attendance machine at the staff door records every entry and exit for the local-engaged officers, and the building’s security supervisor signs off on the daily log. A device gap is a security incident report. This lockable metal enclosure takes the MB160 from “mostly works” to “always works, never tampered with.”

Why a diplomatic facility needs a serious physical lock

Visitor logging is one half of a consular floor; the other half is the unfalsifiable record of which staff was on which side of the perimeter and when. The MB160 has to be the bedrock of that record. A keyed metal enclosure with a sealed acrylic front prevents the casual access (and the casual menu-fiddle that would invalidate the audit log) while leaving the device fully operational behind the lockable acrylic. The Mini UPS bay ensures the record is unbroken across mains transients.

The build, in plain language

Cold-rolled mild steel, single-piece chassis, powder-coated matte black for a finish that suits a discreet staff door. The acrylic front is optical-grade — clear over the MB160 screen and fingerprint sensor. A cam-style lock with two keys per unit secures the front; security supervisor holds one, building manager holds the other. Made in India by AmpleTrails.

Dimensions designed, not guessed

The metal enclosure is cut for the eSSL MB160 chassis. Outline, screen window, fingerprint platen and rear port reliefs all sit at exact factory positions. The acrylic front sits flush against the device.

Through power cuts, no missed punches

The Mini UPS bay sits below the device cradle. A 12V Mini UPS keeps the MB160 logging through every brief outage. For a facility where the staff log can’t show device-down gaps without raising an audit flag, the Mini UPS continuity isn’t optional — the metal enclosure is built around making it neat and serviceable.

Mounting

Four rear-plate slots take 8mm rawl plugs for a brick perimeter wall. The base is flat for desk mounting at a security counter if that suits the floor plan. Cabling exits cleanly — important when the wall behind is shared with security conduit.

What buyers usually ask before ordering

Will this metal enclosure fit my eSSL MB160 exactly?
Yes — cut for the MB160 chassis. Every cut-out maps to the device’s real port and sensor positions.

Is the eSSL MB160 included?
No — listing is for the metal enclosure only. The MB160 and Mini UPS are sold separately.

How tamper-evident is the cover?
The cam-style key lock leaves visible signs if forced. Pair with a CCTV cone for full chain-of-custody on access events.

Can we add a security seal to the lock interface?
Yes — the lock barrel area supports a numbered tamper-evident seal if your protocol requires one.

Made-in-India sourcing — does it support our procurement policy?
Yes. Fabricated and finished in India; useful for facilities with local-content procurement clauses.
