FAQs
The ES2279BK is a pre-assembled enclosure with mounting designed for quick field deployment. It ships as a single unit (package level 1: 1 piece) and uses a double blind door with overlapping closure. Reference dimensions are 1600 mm width by 2200 mm height by 800 mm depth, with actual product nets at 1610 mm x 2311.5 mm x 1640 mm and a packed weight around 192.78 kg. For installation, refer to the manual 1STM604121R0006 and ensure compatible mating accessories and mounting heights in line with IEC standards.
IP55 protection means the enclosure is protected against dust ingress sufficient to prevent interference with operation and against water jets from any direction. In industrial settings, this reduces the risk of electronics failure due to dust and moisture, extending component life, lowering unplanned downtime, and simplifying maintenance routines for control cabinets located near manufacturing lines or in outdoor-adjacent areas.
The cabinet aligns with IEC 62208 and IEC 61439-1-2 conventions and furnishes NEMA 1, 3R, 12 suitability. It carries a CE Declaration of Conformity (IS2), RoHS information with a 20250108 RoHS date, and a REACH declaration with related date. The WEEE category indicates the product’s scope is not within WEEE for disposal. This certification suite supports global deployment and regulatory compliance.
Yes, the ES2279BK is suitable for outdoor or damp indoor settings thanks to its IP55 protection and rugged sheet steel construction. The orange peel finish in RAL 7035 offers UV and weather resilience while maintaining a professional appearance. When used outdoors, ensure appropriate mounting and drainage considerations are met and follow installation guidelines in the provided manual.
The cabinet’s pre-assembled design reduces on-site assembly time, lowers field-wabrication risks, and accelerates commissioning across multiple lines. Its robust IP55 protection minimizes unplanned maintenance by safeguarding critical control electronics. The durable surface finish and standard color simplify cleaning and interchangeability of components, contributing to lower lifecycle costs and faster project payback in automation deployments.
