FAQs
The XLVS12430081 Ex-CELL enclosure uses vertical lugs for straightforward wall or structural mounting and includes one gland plate to simplify cable entry planning. This design minimizes field modification and accelerates commissioning, especially when relocating panels between harsh environments. Proper seal integrity is maintained with the IP66/NEMA 4X compliant construction, reducing rework and tightening installation timelines for offshore, chemical, and mining facilities.
Yes. The Ex-CELL enclosure is rated for Hazardous/Classified Locations with NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX compliance, covering Class I, Zone 1 and related divisions. This makes it appropriate for environments with flammable gases or vapors, as well as dust hazards. Typical applications include refineries, chemical plants, and mining operations where regulatory compliance and safety are critical.
The enclosure measures 24 inches by 30 inches by 8 inches and is constructed from 316L stainless steel. It provides IP66 ingress protection and NEMA 4X rating, ensuring resistance to dust, water jets, and corrosive exposure. A single gland plate is included to support efficient wiring and accessories, helping installers manage space and wiring routes in compact control panels.
Industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, mining, and water treatment benefit most due to the combination of corrosion resistance and hazardous-location certifications. The 316L stainless steel body, robust sealing, and gland plate configuration support reliable control housing in offshore rigs, chemical plants, and other environments where downtime and safety are major concerns.
The enclosure’s corrosion resistance, IP66/NEMA 4X protection, and certified hazardous-location compliance translate to lower maintenance costs, longer service life, and reduced risk of unplanned downtime. While initial cost may be higher than painted alternatives, the total cost of ownership declines due to fewer replacements, less frequent resealing, and easier ongoing servicing in demanding environments.
