Copper-free aluminum enclosure shell delivers corrosion resistance without copper plating and reduces overall weight, improving field handling and lowering lifecycle costs in chemical plants, offshore facilities, and other harsh environments. The ECP enclosure is a robust choice for process-control panels in oil and gas facilities, chemical processing plants, and rugged outdoor installations. NEMA 4X protection paired with hazardous-location ratings provides a reliable safety envelope, supporting operation in Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III environments and helping you maintain NEC/CEC compliance. The square cover and 12 x 12 x 8 inch footprint with a 9 inch depth enable predictable panel layouts and straightforward cable management in space-constrained control cabinets. Tap-in mounting feet offer fast, secure field mounting with vibration resistance, reducing installation time and minimizing service interruptions. Compatibility with NEC/CEC standards and third-party certification streams (Intertek/UL) supports faster project approvals and reduced risk in regulated environments. All told, the ECP121208 S391 balances durability with practical installability for industrial automation and hazardous-location control panels.

FAQs

The ECP121208 S391 is designed for straightforward field mounting with tap-in feet, which simplifies securing the enclosure to walls or panels. Its specified 9 inch depth aligns with standard space planning for control panels, and the square cover aids in predictable gasket seating and cable entry layouts. For wider installations, the 12x12x8 footprint provides a consistent housing for internal assemblies while still supporting quick field modifications.
This enclosure carries NEMA ratings including 9, 3, 3R, 7, and 4, and is classified for hazardous locations with NEC/CEC compliance. It supports Class I Division 1 and Division 2, Class II Division 1 and Division 2, and Class III environments, making it suitable for oil and gas, chemical processing, and other challenging settings. These approvals help streamline safety approvals and regulator paperwork on projects.
Yes. The enclosure’s NEMA 4X protection and hazardous-location certifications make it well-suited for oil, gas, and chemical processing environments where exposure to moisture, dust, and corrosive agents is common. Its copper-free aluminum construction provides durability with lighter weight than steel, aiding installation and ongoing maintenance for process-control panels in these industries.
When selecting the ECP121208 S391, consider its NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous-location ratings (Class I, II, III as noted). The enclosure’s certifications help satisfy regulatory requirements for hazardous areas and support compliance documentation. It also aligns with third-party certification streams such as Intertek and UL, which can expedite approvals and reduce project risk.
Maximize ROI by leveraging the tap-in mounting feet for fast, vibration-resistant mounting, reducing installation time and downtime. Use the copper-free aluminum body to minimize corrosion-related maintenance in harsh environments, and plan for the 12x12x8 enclosure footprint to standardize panel layouts. Regular inspections of seals and mounting hardware help sustain ingress protection and extend service life in demanding facilities.
