Eaton Specification Sheet - NXTS14538204
Polished 316L stainless steel construction provides outstanding corrosion resistance and easy cleaning, reducing maintenance costs in offshore, chemical, and washdown environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The material choice translates to extended enclosure life and lower total cost of ownership, especially where exposure to caustics or salt spray is common. Application: oil and gas platforms, chemical plants, and maritime facilities benefit from reliable protection of sensitive drives and controllers. The large 45" x 38" x 20" enclosure size supports accommodating multiple electrical panels, drives, and control modules, enabling compact, serviceable layouts while meeting space constraints in control rooms or outdoor sites. This improves installation efficiency and reduces panel footprint in compact skids or cabinets. IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings guarantee robust ingress protection against dust and water in washdown areas or rugged environments, ensuring continuous uptime and reducing unplanned downtime. Four gland plates offer flexible cabling and simplify routing for power, control, and instrumentation cables, enhancing conduit and gland management while maintaining enclosure integrity. The with-hinge design simplifies door access, enabling quicker maintenance and faster field servicing, which lowers labor hours during retrofits or routine inspections. Overall, these features support compliant, scalable installations with predictable maintenance cycles and reduced lifecycle costs in industrial automation, oil & gas, and mining applications.

FAQs
What factors should you review before installing the NXTS14538204 N-TB enclosure in hazardous locations? Ensure compatibility with NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX requirements, confirm Class I, Division 2 or Zone 1 applicability, verify IP66/NEMA 4X protection for your environment, and plan gland routing through the four gland plates. Also check mounting clearances and hinge access for maintenance.
Yes. The NXTS14538204 is designed for integration with common enclosure accessories and mounting patterns used in Crouse-Hinds series installs. Its 45" x 38" x 20" footprint accommodates multiple drives and panels, while four gland plates provide flexible cable entries. This compatibility minimizes retrofit complexity and supports streamlined procurement.
The enclosure uses polished 316L stainless steel for corrosion resistance, with IP66 ingress protection and a NEMA 4X rating, suitable for washdown and corrosive areas. Certifications under NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX and Hazardous/Classified Location classifications ensure regulatory compliance. The four gland plates simplify cable management, reducing heat buildup and improving operational reliability in harsh environments.
NXTS14538204 carries NEC hazardous location ratings (Class I, Division 2 and Zone 1), IP66 ingress protection, and NEMA 4X protection, along with IECEx/ATEX certifications. These approvals confirm safe operation in explosive atmospheres, withstand exposure to dust and water, and align with global safety standards, supporting compliance and verification during audits and system commissioning.
The 316L stainless steel body, IP66/NEMA 4X protection, and four gland plates reduce maintenance interruptions by resisting corrosion, simplifying cabling during upgrades, and enabling easier service access via the hinged door. Over the lifecycle, this leads to fewer replacements, lower downtime, and improved uptime in hazardous locations such as oil, gas, and chemical processing facilities.
