Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 30" height, 18" width, and 6" depth create a compact footprint ideal for retrofit projects and tight utility spaces, enabling quicker deployment and space optimization in control rooms andElectrical enclosures. The carbon steel body with 16 gauge / 14 gauge walls delivers robust protection against impact and daily handling, reducing panel damage and downtime in factory floors where equipment is accessed repeatedly. The hinged cover with continuous piano hinge and a trimmed cover design provides smooth, low-friction operation and a cleaner look, lowering user effort during routine access and inspection tasks in busy environments. Key locking provisions enhance security against tampering, while flush mounting and thru-hole mounting details simplify installation and alignment, resulting in faster commissioning and fewer field modifications. NEMA 1 compliance supports indoor, dry environments, ensuring regulatory alignment for standard electrical distribution projects. Overall, the enclosure integrates seamlessly with B-Line accessories, enabling scalable, modular layouts that improve maintenance scheduling and lifecycle cost control. The ANSI 61 gray painted finish delivers durable corrosion resistance and a professional finish that remains visually consistent with other equipment in the facility.
