Eaton Crouse-Hinds XLHS16060253 Ex-CELL enclosure - IP66

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The Ex-CELL enclosure uses 316L stainless steel, providing superior corrosion resistance that lowers maintenance costs and extends service life in chemical and offshore environments, enabling longer intervals between inspections in hazardous locations. This design supports 610 x 610 x 254 mm footprint with three gland plates and horizontal lugs, which translates to flexible cabling layouts and quicker terminations in control panels for high-density installations. The IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings deliver proven protection against dust, water jets, and harsh weather, reducing equipment exposure risk and warranty claims in outdoor process facilities. Compatibility with IECEx/ATEX and NEC/CEC standards ensures global applicability, simplifying procurement for multinational projects and easing regulatory compliance for hazardous-area controls. The 400 A rating communicates readiness for high-current applications, enabling scalable motor starters, drives, and switchgear integrations without enclosure upgrades, while 316L stainless steel maintains aesthetic and structural integrity in corrosive environments. Installation is streamlined by horizontal lugs and standard gland plates, lowering field welding and reducing total installed cost. In practice, engineers report faster project execution and lower maintenance overhead when selecting Ex-CELL stainless steel enclosures for hazardous-location automation.
