Overview

The nVent GP206 is a 12-gauge mild steel gland plate designed for UL Type 4 and Type 12 enclosures, ensuring compliance with industrial protection standards. Measuring 18.98 x 5.23 inches (482 x 133 mm), this gland plate provides a removable cable egress and entry point while maintaining the enclosure's integrity. Constructed from durable 12-gauge steel and finished with ANSI 61 gray polyester powder paint, it offers superior corrosion resistance for harsh industrial environments.

How to Install the GP206 Wall-Mount Enclosure

Installation guide for mounting the GP206 wall-mount enclosure.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Drill, Level

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Wall anchors (if needed)

  1. Determine mounting location

    Select a suitable location for the enclosure. Ensure the mounting surface is strong enough to support the weight of the enclosure and its contents. Refer to the enclosure's dimensions and weight specifications on the datasheet.

  2. Mark mounting hole locations

    Hold the enclosure against the wall at the desired location and use a level to ensure it is straight. Mark the positions of the mounting holes through the enclosure's mounting flanges.

  3. Drill pilot holes

    Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. If mounting to a masonry surface, use appropriate masonry bits and install wall anchors if necessary.

  4. Mount the enclosure

    Secure the enclosure to the wall using appropriate mounting screws. Ensure the screws are tightened firmly but do not overtighten. For specific torque values, refer to the product's datasheet.

  5. Verify stability

    Gently push and pull on the enclosure to ensure it is securely mounted and does not move. Check that the enclosure is still level.
