Overview

The nVent E16PBXM is an Extra-Deep Pushbutton Enclosure, meticulously engineered for demanding industrial environments. Designed by nVent, this Type 12 enclosure provides superior protection for pushbutton and switch assemblies. Its robust 16-gauge steel construction, finished in a durable ANSI 61 gray polyester powder coating, ensures longevity and resistance to corrosion and impact. The "Extra-Deep" designation offers a generous 4.75-inch (121 mm) internal depth, specifically designed to accommodate additional pushbutton contact blocks for more complex control panel configurations. This makes the E16PBXM ideal for applications requiring extensive operator interfaces. It is compatible with 22.5-mm diameter pushbuttons and switches. The enclosure's Type 12 rating signifies its suitability for indoor use, providing protection against falling dirt and dripping liquids. Manufactured in the USA, the E16PBXM (SKU E16PBXM) facilitates easy identification and procurement. Its continuously welded seams, ground smooth, captivated cover screws, and oil-resistant gasket ensure reliable performance. Features include a grounding stud on the body and a bonding provision on the cover. For enclosures 6.00 x 4.00 x 4.75 inches and larger, an internal detachable hinge holds the cover open during wiring. External welded-on mounting brackets allow for easy installation.
