FAQs
Use with MSR1 or MSR2 suffix accessories to ensure proper mounting and wiring for through-feed applications. Position the enclosure in a clean, dry location and align conduit entries with MSR components. Configure both circuits per your control scheme and confirm NEC/CEC compliance during panel assembly. Also verify gasket integrity and proper grounding to maintain environmental protection.
The NCDC32 enclosure meets NEC/CEC standards and is rated by NEMA as 3, 4X, 7 and 12, with Class I, Division 2 hazardous-location approval. This enables safe operation in chemical plants, refineries, and other high-risk environments. UL certifications are referenced in the product documentation, and UL-listed files confirm suitability for hazardous areas.
Yes, NCDC32 is designed to support hazardous-location control panels. With Class I, Division 2 approval and a 2-circuit, 1-inch trade-size through-feed design, it accommodates tough environments found in chemical processing, oil and gas, and refining facilities. Its rugged NEMA protection and NEC/CEC compliance help maintain uptime while meeting industry safety requirements.
The NCDC32 enclosure meets NEC/CEC standards and carries Class I, Division 2 hazardous-location approval with NEMA ratings of 3, 4X, 7, and 12. It is UL-listed for hazardous locations, with documentation available to support audits and regulatory filings. Through-feed operation and MSR1/MSR2 suffix compatibility further reinforce compliance during installation and commissioning.
