Fiberglass construction with a hinged cover delivers robust ingress protection and corrosion resistance, significantly reducing maintenance cycles in washdown zones and outdoor installations. This translates to lower total cost of ownership while maintaining reliable operation in process lines and packaging facilities. Wall mounting with external feet enables quick, space-saving installations in tight mechanical rooms and near equipment racks, accelerating project timelines and simplifying future expansions. A padlock provision enhances security and access control, supporting regulatory and operator safety practices in manufacturing environments. The stainless pull drawn catch provides dependable latching even after frequent door openings, minimizing service interruptions and improving overall enclosure reliability. With a medium single door, 23.9 in height by 24 in width, and 11.3 in depth, the enclosure fits standard control panel footprints, reducing retrofit risk and allowing straightforward compatibility with existing wiring channels and DIN rail layouts. The combination of fiberglass, a Hinged cover, and external feet simplifies installation and maintenance, helping technicians reduce commissioning time and labor costs on site. Overall, the 4XFCHQRC enclosure supports safer, compliant, and more efficient control system deployments across industrial environments.

This setup minimizes installation time and reduces space conflicts in crowded electrical rooms.
This model uses a fiberglass enclosure rated to NEMA 4X, offering strong ingress protection against corrosion and washdown exposure. The material choice combines durability with lighter weight, aiding handling and installation. The hinged cover and padlock provisions support safe, secure operation in demanding industrial settings.
Yes. The NEMA 4X rating indicates excellent protection against water and corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor installations and washdown environments commonly found in manufacturing, food and beverage, and chemical processing facilities. Fiberglass construction adds durability in challenging environments where metal enclosures may corrode.
Security is addressed with a padlock provision to control access and a stainless pull drawn catch that ensures reliable, fatigue-resistant latching. These features help meet operator safety requirements and protect sensitive control components from tampering or accidental exposure during maintenance.
Plan for a 23.9 in height, 24 in width, and 11.3 in depth footprint with a weight of 37 lb. External mounting feet require a flat mounting surface and appropriate fasteners. Ensure compatibility with existing control panels, wiring channels, and DIN rail layouts, and account for hinge clearance and door swing during retrofit to minimize design changes.
