よくある質問
What is a NEMA 12 enclosure?
A NEMA 12 enclosure is a type of electrical enclosure designed for indoor use in industrial settings. It protects against dust, dirt, lint, fibers, and dripping non-corrosive liquids. These enclosures are commonly used to house control panels, relays, and other sensitive electrical or electronic components.
What is the difference between NEMA 12 and NEMA 4 enclosures?
The key difference lies in water protection:
NEMA 12: Protects against dust and dripping water; suitable for indoor, dry environments.
NEMA 4: Protects against hose-directed water and even occasional submersion; can be used outdoors or in wash-down areas.
If your application involves water spray or outdoor exposure, NEMA 4 is a better choice.
Is a NEMA 12 enclosure waterproof?
いいえ。. NEMA 12 enclosures are not waterproof. They are resistant to light dripping or splashing but not designed for high-pressure water or full submersion. For waterproof performance, consider NEMA 4 or 6 enclosures.
