B-LINE 16PMK – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Eaton B-Line 16PMK pole mounting kit actually do?
The 16PMK is a pole mounting kit from the Eaton B-Line Premier series accessory line. It mounts an enclosure to a round or square pole using top and bottom brackets, so the enclosure carries on the pole rather than a wall. Brackets are stainless steel and the kit is cUL Listed.
2) Will the 16PMK pole mounting kit keep my enclosure's NEMA 4 rating?
Yes. The 16PMK is rated to NEMA 4, so it is intended for use with NEMA 4 watertight/dust-tight enclosures without compromising that rating. The brackets attach to the enclosure's existing mounting provisions rather than requiring new penetrations through the enclosure body.
3) What size enclosure does the B-Line 16PMK fit?
The 16PMK is sized for enclosures with a 16 inch dimension on the mounting face. The kit brackets measure 16 x 16 x 1 inches as listed (height, length/depth, width), so match it to the 16 inch back or side dimension of your Premier series enclosure. For other enclosure sizes, B-Line publishes the pole mounting kit in matching sizes.
4) Is stainless steel the right choice for an outdoor pole mount?
For outdoor and washdown locations, yes. The 16PMK brackets are stainless steel, which is what you want on a pole outside or in a corrosive area, and it pairs correctly with stainless NEMA 4 enclosures. Using painted or galvanized brackets against a stainless enclosure is where you invite galvanic and cosmetic problems.
5) Do I need anything besides the 16PMK to mount an enclosure to a pole?
The 16PMK supplies the top and bottom pole mounting brackets. The banding, straps, or U-bolts that wrap the pole are sized to the pole diameter and are specified separately, so confirm what your pole calls for. The kit weighs 3.491 lb, so a single installer can handle it, but plan on two hands to hold the enclosure while the brackets are drawn up.
6) What part number do I order for the B-Line 16 inch pole mounting kit?
Order Eaton B-Line MPN 16PMK. That is the single model for this kit, so there are no finish or handing options to specify; the material is stainless steel as supplied.
7) Can I use the 16PMK to wall mount an enclosure instead?
No. The 16PMK is built for top and bottom pole mounting, standing the enclosure off a pole. For flat wall or panel mounting use the enclosure's own mounting feet or a wall mounting bracket kit, not this one.
8) Is the 16PMK acceptable for a job that requires Canadian listing?
The 16PMK carries a cUL Listing, which is the mark inspectors look for on Canadian installations. That covers the mounting kit itself; the enclosure and any devices inside it carry their own listings.
