NEMA Type 12 Enclosures

Overview

Delta NEMA Type 12 Enclosures are designed to house electrical components, such as terminal blocks, controls, and instruments. These enclosures provide protection from dirt, dust, oil, and water.

Construction

Two Door Floor-Mounted Enclosures — Catalog Number D554428N12DD is made of 14 gauge steel. All other enclosures are made of 12 gauge steel, except when A = 72º the back is made of 10 gauge steel. All seams are continuously welded and ground. A neoprene cover gasket is attached with an oil-resistant adhesive.

Each door may be removed by pulling the hinge pin. Each enclosure includes a removable print pocket, 12″ floor stands, lifting eyes, and body stiffeners.
