Feature → Business Impact → Application: Pedestal design with two front doors and a 3-point locking system delivers quick access for maintenance while ensuring high-security enclosure integrity in busy production lines. This translates to reduced downtime and consistent protection of sensitive electronics in manufacturing environments, especially where space is at a premium and cable management must be clean and efficient. Feature → IP 55 and IK10 ratings provide dust and impact resistance that match factory floor realities, cutting replacement frequency and support costs. Application includes assembly lines and process automation where reliability and durability are critical. Feature → Mounting plate sized at 1,120 × 625 mm allows precise back-panel alignment and compatibility with standard backplanes, enabling faster cabinet assemblies and repeatable configurations. Feature → Included two-part gland plates simplify cable routing, speeding installation and improving seal integrity, which is essential for long-term performance in electrical infrastructure. Feature → 2-door configuration with 130° door opening improves ergonomics and access for technicians, reducing arm reach time during installation and servicing, while the 3-point lock system provides robust security in shared facility environments. Feature → The enclosure uses sheet steel with a textured external finish and zinc-plated mounting plate, delivering a durable, corrosion-resistant housing suitable for extended service in industrial settings, aligning with long-term maintenance strategies and ROI considerations.

FAQs

The pedestal features a mounting plate sized 1,120 × 625 mm, designed to align with common backplane standards and enabling straightforward integration of control panels and peripherals. This simplifies rack-to-cabinet transitions and reduces custom fabrication time on site.
The CX 6706.000 delivers IK10 impact resistance and IP55 protection, meaning it tolerates significant mechanical impacts and offers dust and splash protection suitable for factory floors. These ratings support reliable operation in harsh environments and help maintain planned production uptime.
IP55 protection provides dust ingress and water splash resistance, but the enclosure is intended for indoor or sheltered industrial spaces. For wash-down areas, verify the specific process conditions and consider additional sealing or enclosure placement to maximize longevity.
Two-part gland plates are supplied with the enclosure, enabling cleaner cable routing and sealed interfaces. This reduces field assembly time, improves sealing integrity, and supports compliant wiring practices across multiple cables and feeds.
Durable sheet-steel construction, secure 3-point locking, and a uniform finish minimize refurbishment needs and service calls. The combined effect of easier access, better cable management, and durable protection translates to lower lifecycle costs and improved uptime in manufacturing and electrical infrastructure projects.
