Copper-free aluminum construction delivers superior corrosion resistance and long-term durability, reducing maintenance cycles in harsh environments. The enclosure resists moisture, corrosive vapors, and temperature swings, helping protect sensitive control hardware and extending service life. This translates to lower replacement costs and less downtime when equipment sits in chemical plants, offshore facilities, or wash-down areas. Tap-in mounting feet simplify field installation by allowing quick, tool-free alignment and secure mounting. This feature reduces labor hours on site and minimizes misalignment risks that can cause enclosure leaks or wiring errors. The result is faster project delivery and more reliable panel assemblies in automated lines and process skids. Certifications cover the critical safety and compliance needs for hazardous environments: NEC/CEC standards and explicit Class I, Division 1 and Division 2, Class II, Division 1 and 2, and Class III ratings. Coupled with NEMA 3, 3R, 4, 7, and 9 ratings, the ECP182410 is suitable for indoor and outdoor installations exposed to dust, water, and occasional impacts, helping you qualify for regulated facilities. With a robust 18 x 24 x 10 in footprint and a 235 lb weight, the enclosure offers substantial internal space for sizeable control systems while maintaining structural rigidity. Square cover design enhances seal geometry, and copper-free aluminum keeps the unit light for its size relative to steel alternatives. Heavy-duty mounting feet and a compatible footprint support reliable integration into existing switchgear and MCCs. Compatibility is enhanced by readily available installation resources, including 3D CAD drawings, brochures, and spec sheets. The IF 1107 mounting plate kit and related instruction sheets simplify upgrades and retrofit projects, accelerating time-to-commission and ensuring correct fitment with standard DIN rails and mounted components.
