B-LINE 12106-4XSS6CHC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Eaton B-Line 12106-4XSS6CHC enclosure be used outdoors or in a washdown area?
Yes. The 12106-4XSS6CHC is rated NEMA 4X and built from 316 stainless steel, which is the combination you want for outdoor, washdown, and corrosive duty such as food processing, coastal sites, and wastewater. A seamless poured in-place gasket seals the hinged cover, and the door clamps are stainless as well. UL 50 is the listed certification.
2) What are the dimensions of the B-Line 4XSS6CHC JIC enclosure, and will a 12 x 10 panel fit inside?
Outside box dimensions are 12 inches high, 10 inches wide and 6 inches deep. Because those are the enclosure's own dimensions, a back panel is slightly smaller than the 12 x 10 opening. The box has panel mount provisions built in, so order the matching B-Line back panel for this size rather than cutting your own to the full 12 x 10.
3) Does mounting this B-Line stainless enclosure require drilling through the back of the box?
No, and that matters for a 4X rating. The 12106-4XSS6CHC uses external mounting feet, so it bolts to the wall without any penetration of the enclosure body. Drilling the back would break the seal you paid for. It is a wall-mount box, not flush or pole mount as supplied.
4) Is a back panel included with the 12106-4XSS6CHC enclosure?
No back panel ships with the box. The 4XSS6CHC is supplied as the enclosure with a continuous piano hinge cover, stainless door clamps, external mounting feet, and the panel mount provisions to accept a sub-panel. Budget the back panel and any din rail or terminal hardware as separate line items.
5) Is the cover on the 4XSS6CHC removable or hinged?
Hinged, on a continuous piano hinge, and secured with stainless door clamps rather than screws. That means the door stays with the box during service and you open it by hand with no tools, which is the practical difference from a screw-cover JIC box. If you need the cover to come off entirely for bench wiring, this is not that style.
6) Should I specify 316 stainless or is 304 enough for this size JIC enclosure?
The 12106-4XSS6CHC is the 316 version. Choose 316 where chlorides are present: coastal and marine air, caustic or chlorinated washdown, wastewater, and de-icing salt exposure. For indoor plant use without chlorides a 304 stainless or a painted steel 4X box covers the same NEMA rating at lower cost. The rating is the same either way; the alloy is what buys you corrosion life.
7) How heavy is the 12 x 10 x 6 stainless JIC box, and can one person hang it?
It weighs 10.2 pounds empty, so a single installer can hold it to the wall while starting the anchors. Size the anchors for the box plus the panel and devices you load into it. The body is 16 gauge stainless.
8) What does the 316 stainless on this enclosure look like, and is it painted?
Unpainted. The 12106-4XSS6CHC is bare 316 stainless with a #4 brushed finish, the standard directional satin grain used on food and pharma equipment because it cleans easily. It is made in the US.
