APX Enclosures: NEMA 4X Enclosures

January 8, 2025

The NEMA 4X electrical enclosure is a specific type of enclosure that meets the following standards:

  • Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, including offshore environments
  • Protection from hose-directed and splashing water
  • Protection from dust and rain
  • Resistant to corrosion

The NEMA 4X enclosure can serve indoor or outdoor in telecommunications, utilities, manufacturing, oilfield work and many other industries. It is especially common in environments with food products.

The NEMA 4X rating is superior over NEMA 3R for its:

  • Corrosion resistance: The material of a 4X enclosure will better protect against all kinds of corrosion, including salt spray.
  • Water protection: It can protect the equipment from splashing and hose-directed water.
  • Foreign object protection: The 4X is better able to protect equipment from fine-textured material like windblown dust.

APX Enclosures specializes in making this type of protective device. When you order your NEMA 4X weatherproof enclosure, your product will be NEMA certified, UL listed, non-corrosive, weatherproof, made in the USA and customized to your preferences.

IDEAL: 61-737 400A AC TRMS Clamp Meter

The IDEAL 61-737 Clamp Meter is a CAT III auto ranging true root mean square (TRMS) digital clamp meter that measures up to 400 Amps AC via the clamp head. It measures up to 600V AC and DC, frequency, resistance, continuity, capacitance, and diodes via test-leads (included) and measures temperature (⁰F/⁰C) via a K-Type thermocouple (included). It’s capable of detecting the presence of voltage between 40V to 600V via a non-contact sensor in the right tip of the clamp.

ROLEC: Compare Diecast Enclosures With Built-in EMC Shielding

Diecast aluminium enclosures are much better at dealing with radio frequency interference (RFI) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) than their plastic counterparts. Aluminium enclosures can provide some degree of inherent RFI/EMI shielding due to the conductive properties of the metal. But RFI/EMI can still affect the equipment. The shielding effectiveness of a metal enclosure depends on various factors.
