316L stainless steel construction delivers exceptional corrosion resistance, increasing enclosure life in aggressive chemicals and marine atmospheres. This translates to lower replacement costs and reduced maintenance cycles for chemical plants and offshore facilities. The XLVS12016101 Ex-CELL enclosure is designed to house electrical and control gear in challenging hazardous locations while maintaining mechanical integrity. With an IP66 ingress rating and a NEMA 4X enclosure rating, it resists water, dust, and washdowns in harsh environments. The result is dependable operation across outdoor installs, particle-heavy production lines, and process areas that demand frequent cleaning. This combination supports uptime targets and safer maintenance windows. Certified for IECEx/ATEX and NEC/CEC service, the Ex-CELL enclosure aligns with global hazardous-location requirements. It supports compliance for Class I, Zone 1 and Division 2 areas, among others, helping reduce risk during audits and project approvals. The certification set enables global deployment without redesign. Its 20 in x 16 in x 10 in footprint, 1 gland plate, and vertical lugs simplify installation and cabling. The compact footprint fits standard mounting surfaces while leaving room for terminal blocks and small PLCs. A single gland plate streamlines wiring and minimizes gasket wear over time, improving long-term reliability. Constructed from 316L stainless steel, the enclosure resists corrosion across industrial environments, delivering a stable enclosure solution that reduces spare parts and service intervals. The Ex-CELL design supports plug-and-play integration with Eaton Crouse-Hinds enclosures family and offers consistent warranty-backed performance for industrial automation projects.
