Tap-in mounting feet
Copper-free aluminum construction reduces weight and enables better corrosion resistance in harsh environments, delivering longer service life and safer handling during installation. This material improvement supports cost savings in maintenance and reduces the risk of structural degradation in chemical or outdoor applications; engineers can design around a lighter, easy-to-move enclosure without sacrificing strength. Tap-in mounting feet accelerate field setup, lowering labor hours and minimizing on-site adjustments while ensuring secure mounting in tight spaces. The 24" x 36" x 8" enclosure size provides ample internal space for complex control panels and drives, supporting flexible layouts and future expansion. A 9-1/4" depth and substantial internal volume align with typical industrial automation hardware footprints, helping installers avoid rework. Compliance with NEC/CEC and multiple NEMA ratings gives teams confidence for offshore, petrochemical, and mining installations, reducing compliance risk and accelerating procurement. The enclosure’s square cover simplifies service access and enclosure integrity testing, which translates into predictable maintenance windows and fewer unplanned outages.
