Eaton PV6 Push Button Enclosures - NEMA 12 Rating
Part Number: PV6
Quick Summary
PV6 push button enclosure from Eaton protects control stations in harsh industrial environments. Engineers often struggle with securing reliable sealing and easy access for routine maintenance in tight panels. UL 508A, CSA C22.2, and NEMA 12 ratings provide essential compliance and safety for commercial and manufacturing environments. Designed for surface mounting with external feet, the PV6 employs a 14‑gauge carbon steel body and an oil‑resistant gasket to withstand dust, moisture, and impact. The painted ANSI 61 gray finish simplifies color coding and long‑term durability, while compatibility with B‑Line push‑button components streamlines installation, testing, and ongoing service. This combination delivers predictable reliability and lower total cost of ownership.

PV6 dimensions provide a compact footprint with 9.5 in height, 6.25 in width, and 4.75 in depth, enabling space‑savvy installations in crowded control panels. This small form factor translates to quicker retrofits and minimal panel rework, improving project timelines while maintaining access to internal components for maintenance or upgrades. The carbon steel frame with a 14 gauge wall delivers rugged mechanical protection suitable for demanding industrial environments, reducing the risk of deformation and downtime. An oil‑resistant gasket enhances ingress protection, supporting reliable operation in areas with oil exposure or high humidity, which lowers replacement costs over the asset’s life. Painted ANSI 61 gray finish simplifies color coding for quick identification and keeps the enclosure looking consistent across many sites, aiding maintenance routines and asset tracking. Surface mounting with external feet provides straightforward installation and improved stability, reducing installation time and the need for additional mounting hardware. The screw cover design enables rapid interior access for inspections, wiring changes, or component replacements without sacrificing seal integrity. UL 508A and CSA C22.2 certifications, along with a NEMA 12 rating, give confidence in safety compliance and regulatory readiness for panel builds. Compatibility with the Eaton B‑Line series extends accessory options and standardizes components, streamlining procurement, testing, and future expansions. Overall, PV6 delivers a durable, cost‑effective solution for control panels requiring reliable protection and easy servicing in harsh environments.

FAQs
PV6 is designed for surface mounting using external feet, providing a stable, quick‑install solution for control panels. The screw cover enables easy interior access during wiring, maintenance, or upgrade work without compromising the enclosure’s seal. Plan for adequate front clearance and venting as required, and use compatible B‑Line accessories to streamline cabling routes and component placement.
Yes. PV6 is NEMA 12 rated and UL 508A listed, with a gasketed design that resists dust, dirt, and moisture ingress typical of indoor industrial environments. CSA C22.2 support further confirms regulatory compliance. When selecting for a panel, ensure proper sealing and installation practices to maintain ratings, including correct cover sealing and external mounting feet integrity.
Absolutely. The enclosure uses carbon steel with a 14‑gauge wall, finished in ANSI 61 gray paint, and features an oil‑resistant gasket. These characteristics provide robust protection against mechanical impact, humidity, and oil exposure, making PV6 suitable for machine rooms, process lines, and industrial environments where reliability is critical.
PV6 measures 9.5 inches tall, 6.25 inches wide, and 4.75 inches deep, with an approximate weight of 5.2 pounds. These precise dimensions facilitate accurate space planning for control panels and allow for proper door clearance, wiring space, and component mounting, supporting efficient layout design in new builds or retrofits.
The screw‑cover interior access and external feet mounting enable fast maintenance and component swaps with minimal seal disturbance. The oil‑resistant gasket and durable carbon steel construction reduce ingress risk and wear, extending service intervals. The ANSI 61 gray finish aids quick visual identification and reduces repainting needs across multi‑site deployments, improving total cost of ownership over time.
