The casing is formed by two half-shells (A,B) mutually coupled along two facing surfaces of junction (S), each surface pertaining to a respective half-shell. Sealing means (, G) are provided, which are operatively arranged between the two surfaces of junction (S) and cooperating with a respective half-shell (A,B) for hermetically insulating at least a part of the inner cavity (Z, Z) from the external environment.
