Eaton 643-12LC JIC panel enclosure - NEMA 12

Material and build: Carbon steel enclosure with 16 gauge wall thickness and ANSI 61 gray paint delivers rugged protection in dusty or damp environments. This sturdy construction minimizes panel damage and replacement costs over the system life, while maintaining predictable maintenance budgets. It is well suited for wall-mounted installations on factory lines housing motor starters, relays, and control circuits. Protection and gasket: Seamless poured-in-place gasket creates a tight seal around the door, improving dust and water ingress resistance. The result is reduced downtime and better protection for sensitive electronics in fluctuating temperatures and humidity typical of process and manufacturing areas. Size and mounting practicality: The enclosure footprint (6 in high x 4 in wide x 3 in deep) with external mounting feet maximizes available wall real estate and simplifies mounting in crowded electrical rooms. This makes it an ideal choice for space-constrained control panels in machine cells and compact switchgear applications. Closure and access: Screw cover with a semi-hinged door allows quick service while preserving a secure, weather-resistant seal. This design shortens maintenance cycles and supports frequent inspections without compromising panel integrity. Standards and compliance: UL 508A, CSA C22.2, and NEMA 12 compliance provide clear, auditable safety and performance benchmarks for US and Canadian facilities, easing regulatory approvals and vendor audits. Special features and installation flexibility: Jack chain, panel mount provisions, and plated doorclamp streamline mounting of internal components and rapid door operation. These features reduce installation variability and support fast panel upgrades in evolving automation lines.
