Quick Summary
EJB361810 S598 is a rugged explosion-proof junction box designed for hazardous locations and industrial installations. This enclosure supports complex electrical layouts while maintaining a compact footprint within a 36" x 18" x 10" external size. For engineers grappling with space constraints and regulatory compliance, the EJB361810 S598 delivers reliable protection against dust, water ingress, and explosive atmospheres. It carries NEC/CEC certifications and hazardous location ratings, including Class I, Division 1 and Zone 1/Zone 2 with Division 2 allowances, plus a compatible NEMA rating of 3, 3R, 4, 7, 9. By choosing copper-free aluminum with left-side hinges, you gain corrosion resistance, easier maintenance, and a safer, longer service life. These factors translate to lower lifecycle costs and fewer unplanned outages in plant environments.

Feature: Copper-free aluminum enclosure with a 36" x 18" x 10" footprint and hinges mounted on the left side. Business Impact: Delivers corrosion resistance without the burden of heavy, traditional alloys, reducing weight and handling effort during installation and service. Application: Ideal for outdoor equipment racks, chemical processing lines, and refinery spill zones where aggressive atmospheres are present. Feature: IP66 ingress protection and NEMA ratings (3, 3R, 4, 7, 9). Business Impact: Keeps dust, water, and other contaminants out, lowering field failure rates and extending mean time between service events. Application: Suitable for wash-down environments, outdoor enclosures, and explosive-protection requirements in hazardous locations. Feature: NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous-location classifications (Class I, Division 1/2; Zone 1/2; Class II and III). Business Impact: Supports fast regulatory approvals and safer operation by aligning with global electrical codes. Application: Industrial plants, petrochemical facilities, and mining sites where strict certification matters. Feature: Style C, with left-side hinges and robust gasket seals. Business Impact: Improves access efficiency for maintenance, reduces risk of gasket damage, and maintains enclosure integrity in challenging environments. Application: Control panels and junction-box installations in service corridors and outdoor plant areas. Feature: Large internal volume and compatibility with standard mounting patterns, plus a 396 lb weight rating. Business Impact: Provides ample space for cable management and conduit entries while maintaining protective performance; supports heavy-duty terminations and easier routing. Application: Main junctions in process plants and heavy electrical infrastructure, especially where space and durability matter.

FAQs
For hazardous-location installations, confirm Class I, Division 1/2 or Zone 1/2 eligibility and ensure NEMA ratings 3, 3R, 4, 7, 9 are suitable for your area. Use left-side hinges for access in tight spaces, seal gaskets properly, and follow NEC/CEC wiring methods. The 41.9 in length and 23.9 in width provide ample internal volume for cable management while maintaining protection against dust and water ingress (IP66).
The enclosure carries NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous-location ratings (Class I, Division 1/2; Zone 1/2) plus NEMA ratings 3, 3R, 4, 7, 9 and IP66 protection. These certifications validate safe operations in explosive atmospheres, simplify regulatory approvals, and support safe integration with industrial control systems in refineries, chemical plants, and mining facilities.
Yes. The EJB361810 S598 is specifically designed for hazardous locations with explosion-protection requirements. Its copper-free aluminum body, IP66 sealing, and Style C left-hinged access make it well-suited for outdoor and harsh indoor environments typical of oil & gas, petrochemical, and chemical processing plants, delivering long-term reliability and regulatory compliance.
Plan for mounting using standard patterns compatible with 36" x 18" x 10" enclosures. Left-side hinges offer easier access in constrained spaces. Ensure gasket integrity during cable entry, use appropriate conduit connectors, and allocate space for cable trays or entry glands. The enclosure supports large wiring footprints while maintaining IP66 protection and hazardous-location certifications.
Copper-free aluminum provides superior corrosion resistance and lighter weight, reducing maintenance costs and installation time. The enclosure’s rugged construction, left-hinged access, and IP66/NEMA protections translate to lower downtime, longer service intervals, and improved total cost of ownership in harsh environments such as offshore platforms, refineries, and chemical processing facilities.
