Feature → Business Impact → Application: Stainless steel construction using 1.4301 (AISI 304) delivers excellent corrosion resistance in wet, dusty, or chemically challenging environments, extending enclosure life and reducing intervening maintenance. This directly lowers total cost of ownership for process automation installations in manufacturing plants and food/pharma environments where hygiene and durability matter. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP 66 and NEMA 4X protection, IK10 impact resistance, and UL 50E Type 1 classification provide robust, regulatory-aligned protection for control gear, enabling installation in exposed areas or near production lines without enclosure failures or downtime. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Two integral mounting levels, a detachable rear panel, and a 2.0 mm door with a 1.5 mm rear panel enable fast wiring, easier service access, and simplified component upgrades during plant modifications. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Mounting plate included with dimensions 699x1696 mm and 18x39 mm punched rails support quick, secure internal wiring and modular component layout, improving commissioning speed and reducing field wiring errors. Feature → Business Impact → Application: VX25 baying system compatibility provides scalable expansion and cost-effective system integration for growing control architectures, helping engineers plan future capacity without replacing enclosures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Front-door orientation (hinged on right, swap to left) and lock with 3 mm double-bit offer flexibility for various installation configurations and security requirements across diverse production floors.

FAQs
Installers should anchor the enclosure using the base and gland plates, attach the mounting plate included with the unit, and connect field wiring through the detachable rear panel. The door is hinged on the right and may be swapped to the left; use metal multi-tooth screws (part 2486.400) for interior mounting due to the hard stainless steel. The VX25 baying system compatibility allows you to join multiple enclosures without gaps, enabling scalable, space-efficient control installations.
The enclosure is IP66 and NEMA 4X rated, offering dust-tight protection and water ingress resistance for harsh environments. IK10 indicates high impact resistance, improving durability in dynamic plant settings. UL 50E Type 1 confirms suitability for electrical equipment enclosures in commercial and light industrial applications; together these ratings support compliance and safer operation of control gear.
Yes, the stainless steel 1.4301 body is designed for corrosive or wet environments, and the IP66/NEMA 4X protection makes it suitable for outdoor or partially sheltered indoor installations subject to dust, jets of water, and washdowns. Its robust construction and mounting options support reliable service in manufacturing, process automation, and packaging lines.
UL 50E Type 1 compliance confirms the enclosure is appropriate for electrical equipment in defined environments. While CE marking is often associated with European compliance, you should verify specific local certifications for your site; the enclosure’s rugged build and IP66/NEMA 4X ratings support many EU and US regulatory contexts when installed according to manufacturer guidelines.
The stainless steel construction minimizes corrosion-related maintenance, reducing downtime and replacement costs. Detachable rear panels and easy wiring access speed up service actions, while mounting plate and rails enable straightforward upgrades. Compatibility with the VX25 baying system supports future capacity expansion without new enclosures, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership over the equipment lifecycle.
