Eaton Specification Sheet - 504A
Copper-free aluminum construction reduces weight without sacrificing strength, enabling easier handling during installation and lower crane or ladder time on site. The material also delivers superior corrosion resistance in typical industrial environments, extending service life and reducing maintenance costs. IP66 ingress protection ensures robust dust and water resistance, protecting wiring connections in washdowns, outdoor racks, and damp plant areas. This level of protection supports compliance with industry standards while reducing risk of unnecessary shutdowns due to enclosure failure. Surface-mount mounting simplifies alignment and reduces cabinet fill, letting technicians fasten the box directly to walls or equipment frames. The 3.31 inch length and 1.5 inch width provide a compact footprint suitable for tight electrical closets and control panels, cutting install time. NEC/CEC compliance and Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Location classification help with regulatory approvals and safe operation. By aligning with these standards, the product minimizes rework and accelerates project timelines, especially in batch production facilities. Pauluhn lineage provides proven durability in challenging environments, and its proven geometry supports straightforward wiring and field termination practices. This translates to faster commissioning, fewer field modifications, and lower total cost of ownership for panel builds.

FAQs
The 504A is designed for surface mounting, enabling straightforward installation on walls or equipment panels. Begin by locating a flat mounting surface, align the enclosure, and secure with appropriate fasteners through the mounting holes. Ensure a proper seal around interfaces to maintain IP66 protection, then connect wiring per NEC/CEC guidelines. The lightweight copper-free aluminum construction aids handling during mounting, reducing install time and worker fatigue.
Key specs include copper-free aluminum material, IP66 ingress protection, 1-1/2 inch depth, 3.31 inch length, 1.5 inch width, and an approximate weight of 0.7 lb. Catalog number is 504A, with UPC 662276382978. It is certified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations under NEC/CEC standards, making it suitable for general industrial environments.
Yes, IP66 protection provides robust dust-tight and water-resistant sealing suitable for washdowns and exposed areas. It is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, so it is not rated for hazardous environments. For outdoor or highly corrosive settings, verify compatibility with site conditions and consider additional protection where required by your facility’s risk assessment.
The 504A complies with NEC/CEC standards for general industrial enclosures and is classified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. It carries IP66 ingress protection for rugged dust and water resistance, supporting code compliance during electrical installations and ensuring safer, faster approvals in typical plant environments.
The copper-free aluminum construction reduces weight and corrosion potential, lowering handling effort and maintenance costs over time. Its IP66 protection minimizes ingress-related issues, reducing downtime from enclosure failures. The surface-mount design speeds installation, contributing to faster project completion and a lower total cost of ownership for standard non-hazardous electrical installations.
