Feature Summary

• Type 12/NEMA 12 rated construction provides protection against dust, dripping non-corrosive liquids, and oil seepage.
• Low-profile design with dual-door configuration facilitates access while maintaining a compact footprint.
• Two-point latch system with handle ensures secure closure and supports padlocking for safety compliance.

Applications

• Industrial control panels requiring protection from environmental contaminants
• Electrical disconnect installations in manufacturing environments
• Wall-mounted switchgear housing in facilities with potential oil or liquid exposure

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required internal mounting dimensions align with the 8-inch depth specification. Confirm that the 36x54.5 inch opening matches your structural cutout requirements. Ensure the two-door configuration meets your operational access needs. Check local codes for Type 12 suitability in your specific environment. Validate that the steel material and gray finish are acceptable for your facility's standards.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a robust, low-profile disconnect enclosure is needed for indoor industrial use. The Type 12 rating makes it suitable for areas exposed to dust and light liquid splashes but not washdown conditions. Consider the dual-door layout if separate access zones are required within the same enclosure. Verify that the steel construction meets corrosion resistance expectations for your specific application environment.
