Eaton Specification Sheet - XLVS12020083
316L stainless steel construction delivers exceptional corrosion resistance, extending enclosure life in chemical processing, offshore platforms, and washdown-heavy plants. The business impact is lower maintenance costs and fewer field failures, especially where aggressive coolants or salts are present. This is ideal for automation cabinets in hazardous areas where reliability is non-negotiable. IP66 and NEMA 4X protection provide dust-tight performance and protection against powerful water jets and corrosion, reducing ingress risk in outdoor or harsh indoor environments and supporting uptime in chemical plants and oil/gas facilities. The 20" x 20" x 8" enclosure with 3 gland plates and vertical lugs offers ample interior space and straightforward cable management, enabling faster terminations and easier field modifications for drives, controllers, and terminal blocks. Certifications to NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX and Hazardous/Classified Locations ensure compliance across jurisdictions, cutting permitting delays. Designed for Ex-CELL compatibility, it accepts a broad range of accessories for custom configurations without extensive rework, delivering installation efficiency and long-term flexibility in evolving automation footprints.
