Ross SysCon Control Panels

Common NEMA Enclosure Types

For non-hazardous locations:

NEMA 1: Indoor use. Provides a degree of protection to personnel against access to

hazardous parts and a degree of protection of the equipment inside the enclosure against ingress of solid foreign objects (falling dirt).

NEMA 12: Indoor use. In addition to protection offered by a NEMA 1 enclosure, also

protects equipment against circulating dust, lint, fibers and water (dripping and light splashing).

NEMA 4: Indoor or outdoor use. Protects equipment against falling dirt and windblown

dust, water (rain, sleet, snow, splashing water, and hose directed water). Enclosure will be undamaged by the external formation of ice.

NEMA 4X: Same as NEMA 4 but provides an additional level of protection against

corrosion hence enclosure is built in stainless steel. For hazardous locations:

NEMA 7: Indoor use in hazardous locations classified as Class I, Division 1, Groups A,

B, C, or D as defined in NFPA 70. Designed to contain an internal explosion without causing an external hazard.

NEMA 9: Indoor use in hazardous locations classified as Class II, Division 1, Groups E,

F, or G as defined in NFPA 70. Designed to prevent ignition of combustible dust.
