Quick Summary
Ex-Cell enclosure protects electrical gear in hazardous locations by housing controls in a rugged enclosure. Engineers often battle dust ingress, corrosion, and stringent regulatory compliance when deploying equipment in classified areas. It meets NEC/CEC standards and hazardous-location ratings, including Class I Division 2, Class II Division 2, and Zone 1, plus NEMA 3S4. For installers, the painted mild steel body and 1 gland plate simplify wiring, extend service life, and support scalable automation projects. Its vertical lugs and one gland plate streamline mounting and cable entry, reducing install time and field modifications. With Ex-CELL enclosures, OEMs and integrators gain predictable compliance, easier maintenance, and faster time-to-value for hazardous-area applications. This makes it a robust choice for chemical, oil and gas, and water treatment environments where uptime matters.
