FAQs
The 48244 TCF is designed for flush mounting with thru holes for versatile wall or frame mounting. Plan for sufficient clearance around the hinged door to allow full range of motion, and use the thru-holes to secure the cabinet to a solid substrate. Weight is approximately 75.6 lb, so ensure appropriate lifting and support equipment during installation to avoid door misalignment or bending of the chassis.
NEMA 1 provides basic protection against dust accumulation and interior ingress in non-hazardous, indoor environments. For a typical control panel enclosure, this means suitable protection in clean rooms or factory spaces without severe moisture or corrosive exposures. The UL 50 listing supports general electrical safety and enclosure integrity for standard industrial applications.
Best suited for mid-size control panels in manufacturing, packaging lines, and machine rooms, as well as general electrical infrastructure across factories. Its carbon steel 14/12 gauge construction, flush mounting, and 3-point latching system make it ideal for environments requiring secure access with durable protection and straightforward maintenance.
The enclosure carries UL 50, CSA C22.2, and NEMA ratings, ensuring electrical safety, compliance with regional electrical codes, and suitability for standard industrial installations. These certifications help minimize project risk, simplify supplier qualification, and support regulatory audits in production facilities.
Total cost of ownership includes durable carbon steel construction with a painted finish that resists wear on busy floors, reduced rework due to secure T-handle latching and key locking, and minimal maintenance beyond occasional inspection of hinges and door seals. The flush mounting and thru-hole design also reduce installation time, contributing to lower lifecycle costs.
