Eaton Specification Sheet - QBXS2302012UL
304 stainless steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance for demanding environments, reducing maintenance labor and extending service life. This is especially valuable in chemical plants, offshore facilities, and washdown-heavy processes where exposure to moisture and aggressive substances is common. The enclosure’s compact footprint—11.81" x 7.87" x 4.72" with a 6.48 lb weight—facilitates easier handling, mounting, and retrofits in crowded control rooms and retrofit cabinets, delivering quicker deployments and lower install costs. IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings deliver reliable ingress protection against dust, water jets, and harsh environmental conditions, enabling outdoor installations and washdown areas without compromising equipment safety. Hazardous-location certifications including Class I, Division 1 and 2, Zone 2, plus Class II and Class III, ensure compliance for chemical processing, oil and gas, and mining applications. NEC/CEC standards alignment simplifies procurement and downstream approvals. Compatibility with the QBX family supports scalable configurations and a common accessories ecosystem, reducing engineering effort and optimizing lifecycle value. The enclosure’s robust stainless steel body translates to fewer replacements and lower maintenance costs over the system’s lifetime, contributing to a strong return on investment in mission-critical automation projects.
