ENK10673 Ex-Cell Operating Instructions
316L stainless steel construction provides exceptional corrosion resistance and longevity for harsh environments such as chemical plants, offshore platforms, and mining facilities. This translates to lower maintenance costs and fewer shutdowns due to enclosure deterioration, enabling more reliable control system operation in hazardous locations. IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings guard against dust, water ingress, and corrosion from washdowns and sea air, reducing ingress-related failures and accelerating compliance during audits. The Ex-CELL enclosure offers a 610 x 610 x 254 mm footprint with one gland plate, giving engineers ample internal space for controllers, power distribution, and cabling while keeping enclosure footprints compact in crowded plant rooms. Horizontal lugs and fixed centers of 666 mm by 445 mm simplify mounting alignment, speeding installation and reducing on-site labor. IECEx/ATEX and NEC/CEC certifications, paired with hazardous-area ratings, streamline procurement and help ensure global compliance across projects. This enclosure is compatible with 690 Vac/Vdc systems and supports up to 400 A, enabling robust power handling for demanding control circuits. By leveraging standard documentation such as ENK10673 operating instructions and the available literature, commissioning teams can reduce setup time and ambiguities, improving overall project ROI.
