Overview

The Mencom Corporation CAPW-06L229 is a high-construction, surface mount base engineered for aggressive industrial environments requiring extreme ingress protection and robust cable management. This rectangular base features a single latch mechanism for secure closure and is rated IP69K, making it ideal for washdown applications, food processing, pharmaceuticals, and outdoor installations where exposure to high-pressure jets, chemicals, and extreme temperatures is common. Key specifications include a size 44.27 footprint, two side PG29 cable gland entries, and a patented stainless steel locking system paired with specialized paint and gasket materials for superior corrosion resistance. The base body is constructed from polyamide, with contacts made of silver-plated copper alloy for reliable conductivity. The thermoplastic gasket ensures a tight seal, while zinc-plated steel screws provide corrosion resistance. Operating temperature range is -40°C to +125°C (gray/black) or -25°C to +90°C (clear), accommodating diverse environmental conditions. Designed for compatibility with Mencom’s hoods and surface mount bases, the CAPW-06L229 supports PG, metric, and NPT openings to match specific application needs. It is manufactured in Germany under Mencom’s rigorous quality standards and carries a UNSPSC code of 26121600. This product is distributed by Gross Automation and is suitable for heavy-duty industrial automation, process control, and machinery requiring reliable, high-integrity electrical connections in harsh settings.
