Quick Summary

Ex-CELL enclosure protects control panels in hazardous locations. Its rugged 304 stainless steel construction stands up to washdowns, dust, and corrosive atmospheres in oil, gas, chemical processing, and mining environments. In practical terms, downtime and field maintenance are often driven by enclosure ingress or corrosion; this model minimizes those risks with a durable, sealed design. It carries multiple certifications for global projects: IP66 ingress protection, NEMA 4X corrosion resistance, and NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX compliance for hazardous locations. The vertical-lug mounting and a 16x12x8 footprint simplify installation and service, while the absence of gland plates offers flexibility to tailor gland configurations to the installation needs.

Material and corrosion resistance: The 304 stainless steel construction delivers superior corrosion resistance in washdown-focused environments, reducing maintenance intervals and extending service life in chemical plants and offshore facilities. Business impact: lower lifecycle cost and higher uptime. Application: chemical processing, oil and gas, and water treatment sites. Ingress protection and rugged enclosure design: With IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings, the Ex-CELL enclosure protects internal components from water jets, dust, and harsh weather. Business impact: fewer field failures and safer installations in outdoor or washdown areas. Application: outdoor substations, offshore platforms, and industrial plants. Hazardous-location approvals: NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX compliance and area classifications (Hazardous/Classified Locations) enable global deployments with reduced validation time. Business impact: quicker project approvals and less risk during audits. Application: refineries, chemical plants, and mining operations. Footprint and configurability: The 16" x 12" x 8" footprint accommodates standard control gear, while 0 gland plates provide flexibility to add field-installed glands as needed. Business impact: tailored gland entry and simplified spares planning. Application: panel builders and system integrators. Mounting and installation: Vertical lugs simplify mounting to walls or frames, speeding installation and service accessibility. Business impact: reduced labor costs and safer access for maintenance. Application: electrical rooms, control panels, and process automation cabinets. Support and documentation: Installation instructions and spec sheets from Eaton support reliable setup and ongoing maintenance, improving overall project ROI and compliance adherence.
