Material and protection are engineered for longevity in harsh environments; the enclosure frame, roof, door, rear panel, gland plates, and mounting plate use sheet steel with precise thicknesses, delivering durable structure that minimizes maintenance. This translates to lower lifecycle costs and dependable performance in factory floors, outdoor kiosks, or harsh industrial spaces. Surface finish combines zinc-magnesium coating and powder coating for corrosion resistance and consistent aesthetics, helping meet industry standards while reducing repaint cycles. The IP55 ingress protection and IK10 impact rating protect internal components from dust, water jets, and physical shocks, improving uptime and safety for critical automation panels. Dimensions and a dedicated mounting plate (499 x 1,896 mm) simplify layout planning and enable rapid interior wiring with two punched rails (18 x 39 mm), streamlining installation. The right-handed door can be swapped to left, offering flexible mounting options for confined or retrofitted cabinets. This enclosure is compatible with baying configurations, enabling scalable growth across assembly lines and data centers while maintaining compliance with DIN EN ISO 12944 and UL 50E.
