ENK10673 Ex-Cell Operating Instructions
316L stainless steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance, minimizing maintenance and extending enclosure life in aggressive environments. This translates to lower replacement costs and fewer unplanned downtimes. Applications include chemical processing, offshore platforms, and mining where saline or corrosive atmospheres are common.762 x 762 x 254 mm enclosure size offers ample internal space for standard control gear while keeping outside dimensions compact for space-constrained installations. The 818 mm horizontal fixing center and 608 mm vertical fixing center simplify mounting to existing frames and support consistent, repeatable assembly across multiple sites.IP66 ingress protection and NEMA 4X ratings provide robust protection against dust, water, and corrosion, enabling reliable operation in wash-down areas and outdoor installations. This level of protection supports regulatory compliance without extra enclosure accessories or climate control in many environments.Area classification features Hazardous/Classified Locations, with IECEx/ATEX and NEC/CEC compliance ensuring suitability for Zone 1/Division 1 environments. This accelerates permitting and minimizes design changes during commissioning, delivering faster project delivery.Three gland plates and horizontal lugs simplify cable entry and wiring layouts, while 690 Vac/Vdc rating supports diverse drives and control circuits. The combination of gland flexibility and standardized mounting centers reduces installation time and enables seamless upgrades without enclosure swaps.Designed for industrial integration, Ex-CELL enclosures are compatible with Eaton Crouse-Hinds accessory ecosystems and documented installation instructions, reducing field errors. The robust build and accessible documentation help sustain long-term uptime and predictable maintenance budgets.
