Feature Summary

• Certified for increased safety (Ex e) applications under ATEX and IECEx standards
• Constructed from corrosion-resistant Type 316 stainless steel
• Includes integrated 10-mm brass bonding provisions for internal and external grounding

Applications

• Housing electrical equipment in Zone 1 or Zone 2 hazardous locations
• Installation in environments requiring high corrosion resistance
• Protection of control components against dust and water ingress per NEMA 4X standards

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific application does not require explosion-proof (Ex d) certification, as this Ex e design is not suitable for such use cases. Confirm that the required cable entry points align with the included gland plate configuration. Ensure compatibility with local hazardous area classification zones and gas groups before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when both mechanical robustness and intrinsic safety certification are required. The Type 316 stainless steel construction is necessary for harsh chemical or marine environments where standard steel would corrode. Verify that the 20x20x8 inch dimensions accommodate the internal components while fitting the available installation space.
