NEMA 6P Type Enclosure Ratings & Defintions

Definition: Enclosure or metal box intended for indoor or outdoor use which occasional prolonged submersion is encountered. Corrosion protection is required for the NEMA 6P Enclosures.

Nemaco Tecnology offers NEMA 6P enclosures fabricated from 304 and 316 stainless steel. The stainless steel NEMA 6P provides greater durability than plastic enclosures and provides corrosion resistance. Also, 316 Stainless Steel offers more corrosion resistance than 304 stainless steel due to the additional chrome content contained in the metalurgy. The process of stainless steel pickling and passivation should be done for additional corrosion protection for some applications.

NEMA 6P Type Enclosure Examples

A typical example of NEMA 6P enclosure would be a 316 stainless steel metal box used for electrical controls in any outdoor environment that is wet and there occasional prolonged submersion due to storm waters, tide on river or ocean bay. Sometimes NEMA 6P Enclosures are used in waster water treatment plants or use for junction and pull boxes.
