Copper-free aluminum enclosure provides superior corrosion resistance and long-term durability, reducing maintenance needs in harsh industrial environments. The rugged construction translates to lower downtime and less frequent part replacements in chemical plants, offshore facilities, and refineries. Size 2 enclosure with a clamped cover enables quick access and compatibility with standard mounting footprints, simplifying retrofits and new installations alike, while maintaining a compact yet robust footprint for multi-panel arrangements. The 600 Vac rating with a 150 AIC interrupt capability delivers rapid fault clearance, protecting downstream equipment and enhancing operator safety in high-energy three-phase systems. Area classifications and NEC/CEC compliance, supplemented by UL hazardous-location certification and NEMA ratings (3R 4X 7 9), ensure reliable performance across diverse regulatory environments. Industry-standard documentation and design assistance—SP3D design packages and EBMXB catalogs—support accurate modeling, faster engineering reviews, and smoother procurement. Installation resources, including IF 1616 gasket kits and installation sheets, reduce commissioning time and ensure proper sealing in hazardous areas. The EBMX2B-W150 remains compatible with the broader EBMXB family, offering scalable protection for growing automation and power-distribution systems in challenging sites.
