Type 3/3R NEMA-rated enclosure provides weatherproof protection for outdoor control panels. The RTSCGV NK uses a compact, surface-mounted design that fits tight spaces without sacrificing access to wiring and terminal blocks, speeding up installation and future upgrades. By consolidating a small single-door box into a robust housing, it reduces the number of field components required and streamlines procurement for outdoor industrial projects such as utilities, manufacturing automation, and outdoor lighting control stations. Material and wall thickness deliver durability for long service life: 16-gauge galvanized steel provides corrosion resistance and rigidity while remaining manageable in field handling. The 8 in width, 8 in height, and 4 in depth create a predictable internal volume that accommodates typical 4-conductor and smaller feeder runs, enabling neat cable management and minimized congestion inside the enclosure. This design reduces enclosure-tail matching errors during scope definition. Mounting and installation are streamlined by embossed thru holes and a surface-mount method, enabling fast, precise alignment with existing supports. The embossed holes reduce the need for loose hardware and prevent misalignment during assembly. Rainhood compatibility offers an optional moisture shield for exposed sites or where sudden rain events are common, helping maintain IP performance without added steps. Finish and handling: the galvanized steel arrives unfinished gray, which can be field-painted if needed to meet building color schemes or labeling requirements. At about 4.7 lb, the box is easy to lift with a single technician, lowering on-site labor, while its moderate size minimizes shipping and storage costs on large projects. Special features and compliance: rainhood, embossed mounting provisions, and plated screws enhance moisture control and long-term fastener integrity in outdoor installations. Coupled with UL 50, CSA C22.2, and NEMA 3R ratings, this enclosure supports durable, compliant configurations for wind, rain, and temperature variations, reducing retrofit costs and delivering predictable field performance across industrial facilities.

FAQs
The 884 RTSCGV NK uses a surface mounting method with embossed thru holes designed for quick, accurate alignment with standard support structures. This reduces the need for field drilling, speeds up installation, and minimizes misalignment risks. The embossed provisions ensure consistent hole spacing and sturdy fastening, which is especially beneficial in outdoor or utility installations where vibration and weather exposure are considerations.
This enclosure carries UL 50, CSA C22.2 certification, and a NEMA 3R rating. These certifications confirm suitable electrical enclosure integrity for outdoor and semi-exposed environments, ensuring dust, water ingress protection, and mechanical resilience meet recognized standards. For facilities governed by electrical codes or utility specifications, these certificates support compliant procurement, reducing risk during audits and inspections.
Ideal for outdoor control panels, weatherproof junction boxes, and small single-door enclosures, the 884 RTSCGV NK provides reliable housing for low-to-mid power distribution, instrumentation cabling, and protection of terminal blocks in harsh environments. Its compact 8x8x4 in footprint fits constrained spaces, while the 16-gauge galvanized steel construction offers durable service life in manufacturing floors, outdoor substations, and utility cabinets.
Rainhood compatibility adds an optional moisture shield to curb water ingress during heavy rain events or hose-down cleaning. This feature enhances IP performance without requiring additional components, simplifying enclosure retrofits and preserving internal wiring integrity. For exposed sites or high-humidity environments, the rainhood option helps maintain reliability without complicating the installation process.
The combination of embossed mounting provisions, a lightweight 4.7 lb profile, and a compact 8x8x4 in size reduces field labor, handling risk, and shipping costs. The galvanized steel construction resists corrosion, lowering maintenance, while UL 50 and NEMA 3R compliance minimizes retrofit work and potential downtime. Overall, these features translate to faster deployments, longer intervals between servicing, and lower total cost of ownership.
