Abstract
An assembly of a circuit pack and an environmental protection in which the protection is a heat conductive and fluid-tight cover surrounding the pack and sealed to an electrical cover at one end of the pack. The cover is heat conductively connected with the circuit pack and has guide surfaces to enable the assembly to be guided in an electronic shelf. The cover is also provided with handling regions to enable its removal from the shelf and is resistant to buckling. There may be a resilient clip provided at each side edge of the cover. The clip holds the cover in heat conductive engagement with the circuit pack and has an outer surface which acts as a guide surface.
