4000-68513-4070001-MURR

Overview

The Murrelektronik 4000-68513-4070001 is a modular installation frame designed for decentralized automation systems. It features a black polyamide housing with a transparent polycarbonate cover, providing IP65 protection against dust and water ingress. The unit accommodates mounting plates with thicknesses between 1 and 5 mm and includes a closure mechanism with a double drill hole and removable rotary knob. Its compact dimensions are 127 mm in height, 66 mm in width, and 43 mm in depth. The component operates within a temperature range of -30°C to +70°C during storage and use.

Feature Summary

• Transparent polycarbonate cover enables visual inspection of internal components without opening the enclosure.
• Robust polyamide construction ensures durability in industrial environments.
• Removable rotary knob facilitates secure closure while allowing easy access for maintenance.

Applications

• Decentralized I/O station enclosures
• Fieldbus node installations
• Sensor and actuator connection points

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix matches the required configuration for your system architecture. Confirm compatibility with existing mounting rails or profiles. Ensure environmental conditions remain within the specified thermal limits. Check for any regional regulatory compliance requirements relevant to the deployment location.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a protected, visually accessible housing is required for small-scale automation modules. Consider the IP65 rating for environments with moderate exposure to contaminants. Evaluate the physical dimensions against available space constraints in the control cabinet or machine panel.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Murrelektronik modular frame series, which supports the company's distributed automation strategy. These frames are integral to creating zero-control-cabinet architectures by housing electronic components directly at the field level. They complement Murrelektronik's connector and I/O systems.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Murrelektronik documentation for direct cross-references. Verify dimensional and mounting interface compatibility before substituting with alternative brands. Generic industrial enclosures may not offer the same level of integration with proprietary Murrelektronik locking mechanisms.

FAQ

What material is used for the cover?

The cover is made of transparent polycarbonate (PC) plastic.

Is the frame suitable for outdoor use?

It provides IP65 protection, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments, but specific outdoor exposure should be verified against the operating temperature range.
