FAQs

The EJB361808 S598 features left-side hinges for easy door access and a generous 36" x 18" x 8" footprint, accommodating multiple conduit entries and terminations. It supports surface mounting and is designed for straightforward integration with standard electrical frames, enabling faster termination, reduced field errors, and simplified conduit routing in harsh environments.
This enclosure is IP66 rated for complete protection against dust and water ingress. It carries NEC/CEC compliance and NEMA ratings of 3, 3R, 4, 7, and 9, plus hazardous-location classifications (Class I, Division 1/2; Zone 1/2). These certifications support safe operation in chemical plants, refineries, and other demanding facilities.
Yes. The copper-free aluminum body offers excellent corrosion resistance, while IP66 and hazardous-location ratings ensure reliable performance in offshore and chemical environments. Its large internal volume accommodates complex terminations, and the left-hinged Design C enclosure simplifies maintenance in noisy, space-constrained installations.
The left-side hinge design speeds door access for inspection and cable upgrades, reducing maintenance time. Copper-free aluminum reduces corrosion-related downtime, and the high IP66/NEMA protection minimizes field repairs. Over the equipment lifecycle, these features translate to lower maintenance costs, fewer outages, and a shorter time-to-productivity for capital projects.
External dimensions are 36" x 18" x 8" with a substantial internal volume to support multiple terminations and cable entries. While exact cable fill depends on components, the enclosure is designed for flexible wiring, conduit connections, and device mounting typical of explosion-protected installations in hazardous locations.
