ABSTRACT:
A sealed device with integral weatherproof cover includes a device integral with a weatherproof cover to prevent the introduction of moisture into the device. A portion of the device is positioned within the weatherproof cover housing. The device includes wires extending out through one or more openings along or near the back of the device. The openings are environmentally sealed around the wires to prevent moisture from passing therethrough. The weatherproof cover housing includes a pair of openings. A portion of the device is positioned next to, and sometimes through, one of the openings. A door is coupled to the weatherproof cover housing and positioned adjacent the other opening. The door can be moved about an axis along an edge of the weatherproof cover housing such that the door can be adjusted between an open position and a closed position about the second opening.
