B-Line Eaton series ground mounted panel enclosure

The Eaton B-Line 4XSS6FD enclosure is built in 316 stainless steel and carries a NEMA 4X rating, which is the rating used for outdoor, hose-directed water and corrosive environments. The 316 alloy is the grade specified where chlorides are present, so coastal sites, wastewater plants and food or chemical washdown areas are the normal use cases. It is also UL 50 listed for enclosure construction.

Model 624812-4XSS6FD measures 62 inches high, 48 inches wide and 12 inches deep, which is the 62 x 48 x 12 in the part number. Plan the pad and clearance around the full 48 inch width plus door swing, since it is a double door design. At 12 inches deep it is a shallow free-standing box, so deep-bodied gear or rear-wired terminations may not fit.

It is a ground mounted enclosure supplied with ground mount legs, so it stands free on a pad or foundation rather than hanging on a wall or a rack frame. You anchor through the legs into the concrete. If your install is a wall mount, this is the wrong body style, look for a wall mount 4X stainless enclosure instead.

Yes. The 4XSS6FD has a padlock provision, so a standard shackle padlock secures it without adding hardware. The doors are hinged and pull down onto stainless door clamps, which is what maintains the 4X gasket seal, so tighten the clamps evenly rather than relying on the padlock to compress the gasket.

Wall thickness is 12 gauge 316 stainless, which is the heavier of the common enclosure gauges and is what lets a 62 inch tall free-standing body stay rigid with double doors and no mid-stile support in the walls. It also gives enough metal for field drilling conduit hubs without distorting the panel.

This is the empty enclosure body only, model 4XSS6FD, supplied with its hinged double doors, stainless door clamps and ground mount legs. Breakers, terminal blocks, subpanels and conduit hubs are separate items you specify to suit the gear going in. Remember the interior depth is limited by a 12 inch overall body depth.

Country of origin on the 624812-4XSS6FD is the US, which is the line item government, education and utility buyers usually need documented for domestic-preference procurement. It is also UL 50 listed, the construction standard typically called out on electrical enclosure submittals.

The finish is a #4 brushed stainless surface, the standard directional satin finish on 316 enclosures, and it reads as grey metal rather than a painted color. Nothing needs to be coated in the field for corrosion resistance, the 316 alloy is the corrosion barrier.

At 48 inches wide the large double door arrangement keeps each leaf to a manageable swing, so you need roughly half the clearance in front compared with one 48 inch leaf, which matters on a tight pad or in a walkway. Both leaves are hinged and clamp closed on stainless door clamps to hold the NEMA 4X seal across the full opening.
