Automotive manufacturers are poised to hit the gas in terms of production in the coming years. Recent projections suggest that North American automotive manufacturing will grow by about 5% annually through 2031. This steady growth means manufacturers will need flexible industrial automation solutions that can quickly and easily adapt to changes in production volume and create more efficient, cost-effective workflows.
nVent’s Extreme Environments Enclosure includes a padlocking handle, and a lift off, lockable door. The enclosure is available standard in 304SS and White Painted 304SS with zinc plated internal components and EPDM replacement gasket. 316LSS models have stainless steel internal components and silicone replacement gasket. The gasket is removable, replaceable, and available for sale as a UL Listed field install kit. Gaskets are interchangeable among the Extreme Environments Enclosures of the same size.
