B-LINE 1212 HSLSIDE – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is this 12 x 12 wireway elbow suitable for outdoor or washdown locations?
No. The 1212 HSLSIDE carries a degree of protection of NEMA 1, which is indoor, dry location, general purpose only. For outdoor, wet or hosedown areas you need a NEMA 3R or NEMA 4/4X rated wireway fitting. Mixing a NEMA 1 elbow into an otherwise rated enclosure system voids the rating of the whole run.
2) What is the difference between a side opening 90 degree wireway elbow and a top or flat elbow?
A side opening 90 degree elbow turns the run horizontally, in the same plane as the wireway sides, so it is what you use to change direction along a wall. The 1212 HSLSIDE is that side opening type. A flat or top elbow changes direction across the wide face of the trough instead, for example carrying a run up a wall. Pick the elbow by which plane the turn happens in, not just the angle, or the conductors will not line up with the adjoining trough.
3) How heavy is a 12 x 12 steel wireway elbow, and do I need to support it?
It weighs 17.061 lb, and the overall width is 16.753 in. On a 12 x 12 run that is enough mass, once filled with copper, that the elbow should land on its own hanger or bracket rather than relying on the adjoining trough sections to carry it. Plan a support point at each direction change.
4) Does the 1212 HSLSIDE elbow come with the connectors and hardware to join it to the wireway?
The 1212 HSLSIDE is the elbow fitting itself, model 1212 HSLSIDE, in steel with the lay-in cover. Wireway systems are ordered as separate pieces, so budget for the connector or splice hardware and any hangers your run needs at each joint in addition to the elbow.
5) Will the gray finish on this elbow match the rest of my wireway and panel gear?
The finish is ANSI 61 gray paint over steel, which is the standard gray used across most industrial panelboards, enclosures and wireway. It will match adjoining ANSI 61 trough and switchgear without field painting.
