Features

	Material
	Your choices are...
	ABS		Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) is a hard, rigid, thermoplastic polymer. It provides good chemical and creep resistance, and dimensional stability. ABS is used in many industries and in a wide array of applications. It is generally inexpensive, but prone to cracking under stress. Common trade names include Cycolac® (GE Plastics), Lustran® (Bayer), and Novodur® (Bayer).
	Aluminum		Aluminum is a bluish, silver-white, malleable, ductile, light, trivalent metallic element that has good electrical and thermal conductivity, high reflectivity, and resistance to oxidation.
	Fiberglass		Fiberglass is strong, durable, and impervious to many caustics and extreme temperatures.
	Stainless Steel		Stainless steel is chemical and corrosion resistant and can have relatively high pressure ratings.
	Steel		Steel is a commercial iron that contains carbon in any amount up to about 1.7 percent as an essential alloying constituent. It is malleable under suitable conditions and distinguished from cast iron by its malleability and lower carbon content.
	Polycarbonate		Polycarbonate is an amorphous material with excellent impact strength, clarity, and optical properties. Polycarbonate has excellent mechanical properties and can be molded to tight tolerances. Solvents and petrochemicals attack polycarbonate; its weatherability is only adequate. Common brand names include: Caliber® (Dow), Lexan® (GE), Makrofol®, and Makrolon® (Bayer).
	Polystyrene		Polystyrene is a thermoplastic known for its rigidity, hardness, heat, and dimensional stability as well as for ease of fabrication.
	Other		Other unspecified materials.

They protect personnel against incidental contact with the enclosed equipment and protect the enclosed equipment from falling dirt, rain, sleet, snow, and windblown dust. External mechanisms remain operable when these enclosures are ice-laden.
	Type 4		Type 4 NEMA enclosures are designed for indoor or outdoor use. They protect personnel against incidental contact with the enclosed equipment and protect the enclosed equipment from falling dirt, rain, sleet, snow, windblown dust, splashing water and hose-directed water. These enclosures are undamaged by the external formation of ice.
	Type 4X		Type 4X NEMA enclosures are designed for indoor or outdoor use. They protect personnel against incidental contact with the enclosed equipment and protect the enclosed equipment from falling dirt, rain, sleet, snow, windblown dust, splashing water, hose-direct water, and corrosion. These enclosures are undamaged by the external formation of ice.
