FAQs
When installing the XLHS14040251 Ex-CELL enclosure, verify mounting on a stable surface and align with its horizontal lugs for secure mechanical support. Use the single gland plate to route cables neatly and seal entries to maintain IP66 integrity. Plan for space to accommodate the 406×406 mm footprint and allow for service access.
The Ex-CELL enclosure is certified to IECEx/ATEX standards for hazardous locations, and it carries IP66 protection with NEMA 4X suitability. These certifications ensure compliance for equipment in zones with explosive atmospheres, while IP66/NEMA 4X provide robust dust and water ingress protection in outdoor or wash-down environments.
Yes. The enclosure is rated for 690 Vac/Vdc, enabling safe containment of high-power distribution and drive circuits. This rating helps protect operators and maintains control integrity in demanding automation setups, particularly where high-voltage equipment is required within hazardous locations.
Industries such as oil & gas, chemical processing, water and wastewater, and food & beverage benefit from the Ex-CELL enclosure due to its corrosion resistance, hazardous-location certifications, and robust IP66/NEMA 4X protection. It is well-suited for harsh environments, offshore platforms, and wash-down facilities.
The 316L stainless steel construction offers superior longevity in aggressive atmospheres, reducing replacement frequency and downtime. The single gland plate simplifies cabling and sealing, lowering installation labor costs. Over the lifecycle, customers typically see lower maintenance expenditure and improved asset integrity in hazardous-area control panels.
