Degree of protection
NEMA 1
NEMA 1 protection with steel construction delivers durable containment for control circuits. It reduces downtime by shielding electronics from dust, moisture, and incidental contact in routine industrial environments. The Type 1 small enclosure is suitable for compact control panels where space is at a premium. It is well suited for machine control panels and instrumentation housings across manufacturing lines, utilities, and process plants. ANSI 61 gray painted finish offers consistent maintenance and plant-wide aesthetics. The durable coating resists scuffs during servicing, simplifies touch-up painting, lowering repaint costs during retrofits. The gray finish also helps with visibility and heat reflection, supporting safer equipment upkeep in cramped cabinets. It supports compliance with internal standards where color-coding or finish uniformity is required. Compact footprint and lightweight form factor streamline installation. The 4.25 in depth by 6.25 in height and 0.063 in width balance cabinet density with service access, while a weight of 0.537 lb eases handling. Perforated panel with a Type 1 locking enclosure accelerates wiring, cable management, and secure access for routine maintenance. The design supports quick retrofits by enabling straightforward accessory mounting from the Eaton B-Line catalog. UL Listed and CSA C22.2 certifications provide regulatory assurance. This compliance minimizes audit risk and supports safe operation in standard electrical rooms. NEMA 1 protection ensures basic ingress protection for indoor installations. When combined with Eaton B-Line accessories, you gain scalable installation options and proven compatibility. Compatibility and lifecycle value: Access to the B-Line panel ecosystem reduces engineering time and procurement complexity. Standardized mounting patterns and available accessories translate to faster deployment, lower total cost of ownership, and longer service life in industrial environments. The N86P leverages common components and widely supported service networks to simplify maintenance.
