FAQs
Installation is straightforward: mount the DL136 legend plate onto the FlexStation enclosure using the single-hole cover system designed for the DL series. Ensure the control station is de-energized and follow the instruction sheets (IF 1418 variants) for torque and gasket seating. The plate’s raised-lower inscription remains legible under the enclosure’s ambient conditions, supporting reliable operation in Class I/II/III zones.
DL136 supports NEC and CEC standards for hazardous locations, with NEMA ratings including 12, 3R, 7, and 9, and area classifications for Hazardous/Classified Locations. These certifications help ensure equipment suitability for demanding environments, simplify vendor audits, and reduce the risk of non-compliance during regulatory inspections and third-party certifications.
Yes. The DL136 is designed to be used with FlexStation single-hole covers and the broader FlexStation explosionproof control-station family. This compatibility enables consistent labeling across multiple stations, simplifies spares management, and supports scalable automation projects without custom labeling solutions.
You can expect improved label visibility and durability under harsh conditions, which reduces misoperation and maintenance time. The Raise-Lower inscription is clearly legible, even in dusty or humid environments, and the plate’s compliance with hazardous-location standards minimizes startup delays and safety concerns during commissioning.
Official resources include the FlexStation catalog pages, instruction sheets (IF series), and the Eaton specification sheet for DL136. Access to UL/Certification reports and installation PDFs helps field technicians verify compatibility, review installation steps, and confirm regulatory compliance prior to procurement and deployment.
