Copper-free aluminum construction delivers corrosion resistance and a lighter profile compared to traditional steel enclosures, reducing transport costs and improving durability in chemical and coastal plants. The 24 x 18 x 8 inch enclosure provides ample interior space for field-wiring and protective devices, enabling easier cable routing and future expansion in hazardous-location control panels. IP66 and NEMA ratings protect against dust, water jets, and harsh washdown conditions, reducing unscheduled downtime and extending service intervals in outdoor or harsh environments. A left-side hinge orientation improves installation efficiency by aligning with existing panel layouts and reducing clearance requirements, while Style C design supports standardized mounting footprints across multiple sites. NEC/CEC compliance coupled with hazardous-location ratings simplifies procurement and accelerates project sign-off, delivering predictable lead times and lower lifecycle risk for regulated facilities.

FAQs
The EJB241808 S598 is designed for hazardous locations and should be installed following the official installation sheets (IF 931) for Style C M82 Series junction boxes. Use compliant fasteners, ensure proper grounding, and maintain the enclosure’s ingress protection and classification ratings. For detailed procedures, refer to the SP3D design package and installation instructions available from Eaton.
This enclosure is NEC/CEC compliant and certified for hazardous locations, with IP66 ingress protection and NEMA ratings including 3, 3R, 4, 7, and 9. The hazardous-location ratings cover Class I (Division 1 and 2) and Zone 1/2, along with Class II and III classifications, making it suitable for a wide range of regulated environments.
Yes. The enclosure provides Class I Division 1/Zone 1 protection, as well as additional Class I, II, and III ratings, aligning with NEC/CEC requirements. It is designed to withstand hazardous-location service while maintaining safe enclosure integrity in high-risk areas.
Hinges mounted on the left side facilitate easier door swing in constrained spaces, simplify field wiring entry, and improve alignment with adjacent panels. This orientation reduces clearance needs during installation and streamlines maintenance access, contributing to faster panel builds and reduced labor costs.
Copper-free aluminum offers superior corrosion resistance and lighter weight compared with steel, lowering maintenance frequency and equipment wear in aggressive environments. This translates to lower lifecycle costs, easier transport to site, and improved reliability in outdoor or washdown facilities.
