Durable stainless-steel construction provides outstanding corrosion resistance in washdown and chemical exposure areas, extending service life and reducing replacement costs for food & beverage, pharmaceutical, and general manufacturing facilities. The 14 gauge wall thickness delivers robust stiffness and protection without adding excessive enclosure mass, improving installation efficiency and panel integrity in tight spaces. The NEMA 12 rating protects internal components from dust, light oil, and splashes, minimizing downtime and ensuring reliable operation in demanding environments. Surface mounting with external feet simplifies retrofits and new installs, saving time during integration and enabling quick alignment in crowded switchgear rooms. A screw cover and continuous hinge seal out contaminants while maintaining access for maintenance, while the oil-resistant gasket enhances long-term sealing performance under process fluids. Stainless steel screws and a #4 brushed finish contribute to sustained aesthetics and corrosion resistance in harsh climates. This consolet enclosure is designed to accommodate standard control hardware and Eaton B-Line accessories, delivering compatibility and scalable configurations for evolving automation needs.
