FAQs
What mounting options does the 886-12CHSC support? This enclosure is designed for wall mounting with external mounting feet, allowing secure attachment to structural surfaces. The 6 in depth, combined with 8x8 in footprint, fits compact machine bays and supports quick alignment with adjacent enclosures. Plated screws and a continuous piano hinge further simplify installation and serviceability.
The enclosure carries UL 508A and CSA C22.2 approvals, along with a NEMA rating of 12. These certifications confirm electrical safety compliance, dust and moisture resistance, and suitability for industrial environments. For projects requiring standardized conformity, these credentials streamline approvals and supplier qualification while ensuring consistent performance.
Constructed from carbon steel with 16 gauge wall thickness and ANSI 61 gray painted finish, the enclosure offers rugged durability and corrosion resistance under factory conditions. The oil-resistant gasket adds an additional barrier against solvent exposure, reducing the risk of gasket degradation and maintenance frequency in environments with lubricants or coolants.
Ideal for small control panels, machine dashboards, and electrical distribution housings in manufacturing and processing facilities. Its compact dimensions, hinged cover, and wall-mount capability enable efficient integration into bill-of-materials for automation projects, while maintaining protective ratings needed for ongoing operation and ease of service during line interventions.
The 886-12CHSC reduces installation time with external mounting feet and a continuous piano hinge, lowering labor costs during initial assembly and subsequent maintenance. Durable carbon steel construction and NEMA 12 protection minimize replacement and downtime, delivering predictable lifecycle costs and improved uptime for automated lines.
