FAQs
Begin by selecting a stable wall surface and confirm mounting points align with the enclosure’s 182x180 mm footprint. Use the included wall mounting screws and insulating bungs, then attach the enclosure securely. The transparent cover and quick-release screws enable fast access during commissioning, while the absence of knockouts ensures clean, field-friendly wiring when adding or rearranging components.
The enclosure offers IP66 protection and NEMA 4X rating with IK08 impact resistance. It operates effectively from -35 °C to 80 °C, making it suitable for variable climate conditions and temperature shocks commonly seen in automation and process control environments.
Yes. The IP66/NEMA 4X protection ratings, UV-stable polycarbonate, and gasket sealing make it appropriate for outdoor or semi-exposed environments. Its robust construction shields sensitive electronics from dust, moisture, and mechanical impacts, while the translucent cover supports quick visual inspections without compromising safety.
The PK 9517.100 aligns with IP66 and NEMA 4X protections, IK08 impact rating, and standard material specifications. It also carries ETIM 9 EC000261, ECLASS 8.0 27180101, and an EAN of 4028177139633, which simplifies procurement, cataloging, and cross-compatibility with regulatory and industry data standards.
The quick-release cover enables faster access to internal components, reducing maintenance downtime and site labor costs. Transparent viewing of internal components facilitates early fault detection, while the secure PU-sealed gasket maintains protection levels. Over time, these features contribute to higher uptime, lower replacement costs, and improved overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) for automation projects.
