Product Details
The VJ series consists of seven enclosure sizes ranging from 6" x 6" to 18" x 16", with varying depths and configurations. These "HWLL" enclosures include one or two stainless steel twist latches to secure one side of the cover to the base, along with a stainless steel piano hinge that secures the other side. Rivets connect the hinge to the cover, while self-tapping screws attach the base. The enclosures are constructed from light gray (RAL7035), hot molded fiberglass reinforced polyester (FRP), and come complete with UL/CSA labels and four threaded inserts for a mounting plate. The cover screw holes in the corners are located outside of the gasketed area. Continuous gaskets made of polyurethane foam ensure optimal integrity, and the enclosure can be readily worked with conventional tools such as drills, mills, saws, and punches. Offering versatility for service conditions, FRP enclosures can withstand continuous temperatures from -58°F to 302°F (-50°C to 150°C) and can endure momentary exposure to temperatures up to 392°F (200°C). VJ enclosures without latches provide enhanced security for both operators and equipment due to their double insulation and protection degree IP66-11 according to IEC 529. They are maintenance-free and corrosion-resistant. The VJ enclosures are UL listed as per UL standard 508 type 3, 3R, 4, 4X, 12, and 13, and are also CSA approved according to C22.2 no. 94. Designed for use as electrical junction boxes or instrumentation enclosures, they are suitable for highly corrosive environments including oil refineries, chemical processing plants, wastewater treatment facilities, marine installations, electroplating plants, agricultural environments, and food or animal processing plants. Additionally, VJ enclosures serve as instrument housings in both indoor and outdoor applications, with window enclosures facilitating easy visual inspection of interior components.
