FAQs
The XLVS12416083 Ex-CELL enclosure supports flexible field wiring through three gland plates and vertical lugs, enabling mounting on walls, ceilings, or standalone frames. Its 316L stainless steel construction and certified ratings simplify wiring layouts, reduce unnecessary enclosure removal during upgrades, and accommodate future expansion without sacrificing integrity or safety in hazardous locations.
This Ex-CELL enclosure is rated IP66 and NEMA 4X, providing robust protection against dust, water jets, and harsh Wash-down conditions. The combination ensures reliable operation in chemical plants, offshore facilities, and industrial environments where ingress protection directly impacts uptime, equipment longevity, and compliance with industry standards.
Best-suited applications include control panels in hazardous zones such as Class I/Division 2 or Zone 1 environments, chemical processing lines, and upstream/downstream oil and gas processing. The 24" x 16" x 8" interior accommodates standard control components, while the 316L stainless steel construction withstands corrosive atmospheres and frequent wash-downs typical of these sectors.
Maintenance centers on periodic inspection of seals and gland entries, with routine cleaning to remove dust and residues. The 316L stainless steel body resists corrosion, reducing repainting, while IP66/NEMA 4X protection minimizes ingress-related maintenance. Regular checks ensure gasket integrity and gland plate sealing, preserving safety and compliance over the enclosure’s life cycle.
The 316L stainless Ex-CELL enclosure offers superior corrosion resistance, lower maintenance frequency, and longer service life in harsh environments, which translates to fewer replacements and lower total cost of ownership. Although upfront material costs may be higher than painted steel, the reduced downtime, extended warranty compatibility, and safer operation in hazardous locations typically yield favorable long-term ROI.
