B-Line Eaton series panels and panel accessories, 1, Smooth brushed, Stainless steel, Panels and panel accessories, Fits 30" X 16" enclosures, flang

The Eaton B-Line AW3016SP back panel is sized for 30 inch by 16 inch enclosures. The panel itself is smaller than the box, as a back panel always is: it measures 27 in height, 27 in length/depth and 12.875 in width as listed. If your enclosure is a different nominal size, you need the matching panel for that box, not this one.

No. The AW3016SP is a NEMA 1 flanged panel, which is an indoor, general purpose rating covering incidental contact with enclosed equipment. It is not intended for washdown, dust-tight or outdoor service. For those openings you need a panel matched to a NEMA 4, 4X or 12 enclosure.

Both, in effect. The AW3016SP is built from stainless steel with a white powder coated finish, and the panel is described as smooth brushed. The white coating is standard on back panels because it makes component layout lines and labels easy to read inside the enclosure.

It is certified to CSA C22.2, so it can be specified on work where Canadian Standards Association compliance is called out on the drawing.

A flanged panel like the AW3016SP has its edges formed over rather than left flat. The flange stiffens the plate and sets it off the back wall of the enclosure so wire can pass behind it. A flat back panel sits tight to the enclosure wall and gives you no clearance behind. If your layout routes conductors behind the plate, the flanged version is the one to order.

Order MPN AW3016SP from Eaton's B-Line series. It is a single configuration, so there is no finish or size option to specify beyond that number.

At 11.859 lb it is a one-person lift and hang. The bulk comes from the 12 gauge stainless construction, which is heavy enough to carry DIN rail, contactors and small drives without flexing when you torque mounting screws.
