Feature Summary

• Sloped top design facilitates ergonomic access to control devices
• Mild steel construction with protective powder coating
• Provides NEMA 12/13 and IP65 environmental protection

Applications

• Mounting small control or instrumentation devices
• Industrial panels requiring 30- or 60-degree access surfaces
• Indoor equipment housing needing dust and drip resistance

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific dimensional requirements against the 8x16x7.09 inch specification. Confirm that the NEMA 12/13 rating aligns with your facility's environmental conditions. Ensure the mounting surface accommodates the consolet form factor. Check for any required accessories such as internal rails or knockouts not included in the standard enclosure package.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a sloped interface is necessary for operator interaction with switches or indicators. The mild steel material offers cost-effective durability for indoor use. Consider the gray finish for visibility and corrosion resistance in typical factory settings. Evaluate if the 16-inch width provides sufficient space for the intended device layout.
