316L stainless steel construction delivers excellent corrosion resistance in chemical and washdown environments, extending service life and lowering lifecycle costs while preserving enclosure integrity in challenging locations. This translates to higher uptime and reduced maintenance cycles for process plants and automation systems, especially in chemical, pharmaceutical, and water treatment applications. The IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings protect against dust, water ingress, and external corrosion, enabling reliable operation in outdoor and harsh indoor settings and ensuring compliance with hazardous-location codes. The 16" x 12" x 6" size, 19.51 lb weight, vertical lugs, and three gland plates offer flexible installation and cable management, simplifying panel design and field wiring in compact electrical rooms. A three-gland-plate configuration supports multiple conduit entries, improving wiring efficiency and reducing field modification costs. Vertical lugs streamline mounting near equipment tops or sides, speeding installation and service. Industry-standard certifications (IECEx/ATEX, NEC/CEC) support global projects, while documented installation instructions and product literature shorten commissioning time and foster consistent builds across sites.

FAQs
When planning installation, consider the 16 x 12 x 6 inch footprint and 3 gland plates for feed-through wiring, along with vertical lugs that simplify mounting on equipment frames or panels. Use the ENK10673 operating instructions to confirm enclosure orientation, gasket compression, and grounding procedures. Ensure compatible conduit entries and adequate clearance for maintenance access in hazardous locations.
The Ex-CELL enclosure is designed for hazardous/classified locations, achieving IP66 ingress protection and a NEMA 4X rating. It conforms to IECEx/ATEX and NEC/CEC standards, enabling safe operation in Class I, Division 2 and Zone 1 environments. This combination reduces protection gaps for electrical equipment in chemical plants, refineries, and other high-risk settings.
Industries such as chemical processing, oil and gas, water/wastewater treatment, and power distribution benefit most. The 316L stainless steel body, corrosion resistance, and robust protection suit control panels, motor starters, and drive electronics exposed to washdowns, chemicals, or outdoor exposure. The enclosure supports reliable, compliant operation across global sites with IECEx/ATEX and NEC/CEC approvals.
316L stainless steel offers superior corrosion resistance in aggressive environments, reducing the need for protective coatings and frequent replacements.
