FAQs
Yes. XLHS14040253 uses the Ex-CELL design language with horizontal lugs and three gland plates, aligning with common fixing centers and gland layouts. This enables straightforward retrofits or new builds, reducing site modification time while maintaining regulatory seals and IP66/NEMA 4X protection.
This model supports IECEx/ATEX and NEC/CEC standards, along with IP66 ingress protection and NEMA 4X rating. It is suitable for Hazardous/Classified Locations (Class I, Division 2, Zone 1, Class II, Division 2) and offers documented certification packages for audit and approval processes.
The enclosure size is 406 x 406 x 254 mm with horizontal lugs and three gland plates, designed to accommodate high-voltage terminations up to 690 Vac/Vdc. Ensure your cable entries and terminal blocks fit within the gland plate allowances, maintaining clearance and heat dissipation per your panel design.
316L stainless steel offers superior corrosion resistance, especially in chemical, coastal, and industrial environments. This reduces maintenance downtime, extends service life, and lowers total cost of ownership by minimizing rust-related seal failures and enclosure degradation over time.
With certified hazardous-location ratings, straightforward installation, and readily available documentation (brochures, certification reports, operating instructions), teams can accelerate procurement, commissioning, and compliance checks. Long-term, the combination of corrosion resistance and robust protection lowers maintenance costs and reduces unplanned downtime.
