FAQs
The CP 6372.563 is designed for front-panel mounting with a BH 520x600 mm fit. Its external dimensions (628.5 mm wide, 708.5 mm high, 209 mm deep) and an installation depth of 191 mm allow straightforward integration into standard control cabinets. The enclosure ships with seals and a rear panel, and the front-panel compatibility minimizes customization while supporting easy field upgrades.
Installation depth is 191 mm, with servicing access from the rear and a front-hinged design that simplifies inspections and part replacements. This configuration reduces downtime during maintenance, enables easier cable management and component swaps, and aligns with common industrial workflows where rear access facilitates wiring and diagnostics without removing the entire enclosure.
The enclosure features IP65 protection per IEC 60 529 and NEMA 12 compatibility, providing robust dust and splash resistance. This level of protection supports life-cycle performance in wash-down or dusty environments, helping to preserve internal electronics, extend intervals between servicing, and ensure compliance with demanding manufacturing and processing applications.
Standard supply includes the enclosure with a cut-out for the support arm connection, front-panel seals and assembly parts, a rear screw-fastened panel, and a front access system with a two-lock configuration. Optional 3 mm double-bit or 41 mm lock inserts, plastic handles, and T handles can be added. This setup minimizes additional hardware purchases and speeds up commissioning.
The CP 6372.563 reduces lifecycle costs through lightweight yet sturdy aluminium construction with excellent passive heat dissipation, lowering cooling requirements and energy use. Its modular, rear-service design reduces maintenance time, while IP65/NEMA 12 protection minimizes field repairs. Together, these factors shorten project schedules and improve overall equipment uptime, delivering a favorable return on investment for automation deployments.
