FAQs

The Ex-CELL enclosure accepts up to 400 A with 690 VAC/VDC, uses a single gland plate, and has horizontal lug wiring access. Its 762 x 610 x 300 mm footprint fits standard switchgear footprints, while 665 mm and 608 mm fixing centers simplify mounting to existing frames. Compatible with IECEx/ATEX and NEC/CEC certified environments, it reduces integration risk on global projects.
Rated for 400 A and 690 VAC/VDC, the XLHS17660301 supports high-current control circuits within a rugged enclosure. The single gland plate streamlines cabling, and the horizontal lug configuration eases terminations. These specs enable reliable integration with motor drives, MCCs, and PLCs in hazardous areas without compromising safety or compliance.
Yes. The Ex-CELL enclosure carries IECEx/ATEX standards and NEC/CEC compliance, ensuring safe operation in hazardous/classes locations. It also provides Class I, Division 2 and Zone 1 ratings, aligning with global regulatory requirements for chemical, oil & gas, and mining applications. This reduces certification risk for multi-site deployments.
IP66 protects against powerful water jets and dust ingress, while NEMA 4X adds corrosion resistance and enclosure integrity in harsh environments. Together, they guarantee reliable operation in washdown, offshore, and outdoor installations, lowering maintenance needs and extending equipment life in aggressive processes.
316L stainless steel resists corrosion for extended service life in challenging atmospheres, reducing replacement frequency. The enclosure’s robust protection, compact footprint, and single gland plate speed up installation and commissioning. Over time, this translates to lower total cost of ownership, fewer field service interventions, and a faster return on automation investments.
