FAQs
The 884 WPSC is designed for surface mounting using external mounting feet. It accepts standard mounting hardware and provides a clean finish with a screw cover. Ensure the wall or panel pattern matches the enclosure footprint and that mounting hardware is rated for the environmental conditions at the installation site.
This enclosure carries UL 50, CSA C22.2 and NEMA ratings, which certify safety, reliability, and suitability for indoor and outdoor use. These certifications help with code compliance, facility inspections, and risk mitigation in industrial installations.
Yes. With a Type 3/3R rating and gasketed sealing, it provides protection against dust and water ingress in outdoor and exposed locations. The oil-resistant gasket and gasketed screws further enhance sealing, reducing ingress and corrosion risk in challenging environments.
Oil-resistant gasket and gasketed screws maintain a robust seal, minimizing moisture and lubricant ingress. This reduces corrosion, protects internal components, extends service life, and lowers unplanned maintenance and replacement costs over the enclosure's lifecycle.
Securely fasten mounting feet, replace gaskets as needed, and verify the NEMA rating for the application. Ensure proper conduit routing and a clean finish with the screw cover. The durable carbon steel construction and proven seals contribute to lower replacement frequency and improved lifecycle ROI.
