Eaton Specification Sheet - XLVS11616121
316L stainless steel construction delivers outstanding corrosion resistance and durability, reducing replacement costs and downtime in chemical, offshore, and washdown environments. This translates into tangible business impact: longer service intervals, lower total cost of ownership, and predictable performance in harsh applications such as oil and gas, refineries, and water treatment plants. The enclosure’s IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings provide complete ingress protection against dust and powerful water jets, improving reliability in outdoor installations and manufacturing floors where washdowns occur. From a compatibility standpoint, its 16" x 16" x 12" footprint and 1 gland plate simplify integration with common control panels and cable management systems, enabling faster deployment and fewer field modifications. The Ex-CELL design supports hazardous locations compliance while easing maintenance with accessible lugs and clean wiring paths. Industry-standard certifications (IECEx/ATEX, NEC/CEC) mitigate regulatory risk for multi-site deployments and global operations. A vertical-lug configuration enhances mounting flexibility in vertical panel layouts, supporting tight spaces and retrofit projects. Overall, this enclosure balances rugged protection with practical installation features to boost operational efficiency and safety across demanding industries.
