FAQs
For hazardous-location installations, ensure the enclosure is mounted in accordance with NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX guidelines. The unit features vertical lugs for secure mounting and two gland plates to simplify cable entry. Verify sealing integrity after installation and route cables to maintain IP66 protection while preventing moisture ingress into sensitive components.
IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings provide a high level of ingress protection against dust and powerful water jets, while the 316L stainless steel body resists corrosion. This combination reduces the risk of moisture-related faults and corrosion-induced failures, extending the service life of mounted drives, controllers, and sensors in harsh environments.
Yes. The Ex-CELL enclosure is designed to meet IECEx/ATEX standards for hazardous locations and NEC/CEC requirements, ensuring safe operation across global markets. This makes it suitable for multinational facilities and simplifies cross-border installation without redesigning enclosure protection schemes.
316L stainless steel offers superior corrosion resistance, strength, and cleanability, which is essential in chemical, marine, and food-processing environments. Its resistance to pitting and corrosion reduces maintenance needs and protects internal equipment from environmental degradation, contributing to lower total cost of ownership.
Expect reduced maintenance due to corrosion resistance, fewer enclosure-related faults in hazardous locations, and longer intervals between replacements. The combination of IP66/NEMA 4X protection and robust 316L steel supports reliability in tough environments, while gland plates and vertical lugs facilitate faster installation and future upgrades, improving overall project ROI.
