Type-12-AW-12 protection delivers robust dust and moisture resistance, reducing field failures and maintenance overhead while safeguarding sensitive control hardware in indoor industrial settings. This translates to improved uptime and predictable performance for automated lines and process control panels. The ANSI 61 gray powder-coated finish adds corrosion resistance, extending service life and reducing repaint cycles in environments with handling and temperature variation. With dimensions of 26.87 inches in length/depth, 26.87 inches in height, and 38.87 inches in width, the AC-1248T offers a compact yet roomy enclosure that fits standard components and backplanes, simplifying installation and enabling faster panel assembly. The unit’s 76.824-pound weight provides rigidity and vibration resistance during operation and transport, reducing the risk of misalignment and wear. Compatibility with the AC-1248B top assembly and broader B-Line accessories minimizes customization, enabling scalable enclosure solutions and consistent spare-part strategies across facilities. CSA certification reinforces regulatory compliance for industrial enclosures while supporting safe, long-term operation in regulated environments.
