Industry Definitions
The National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) is
a US Manufacturers Organization which actively promotes
standardized product specifications for electrical apparatus.
While NEMA does not actually test products, it establishes
the performance criteria for enclosures intended for specific
environments.
NEMA standards describe each type of enclosure in general
and functional terms, and specifically omits reference to
construction details. In other words NEMA specifies what an
enclosure must do, not how to manufacture it. This is also
true about the EN 60.529/IEC 529.
NEMA performance criteria and test methods are used by
Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and Canadian Standards
Association (CSA) as guidelines for investigation and listing
of electrical enclosures.
The tested enclosures are then authorized to carry a label
by UL or CSA to prove it has passed the required tests and
meets the applicable UL and CSA standard.

ENCLOSURE DEGREES OF PROTECTION
TECHNICAL DATA
L4
In order to protect the sometimes delicate equipment
against foreign objects there are protection standards
developed which grade the degree of protection level
achieved. It is important to know that there are two such
standards for the degree of protection by an enclosure.
• The European specification: IP-code according to
EN 60.529 / IEC 529
• The American specification: TYPE-code according to
NEMA 250
The European IP-Code
To help the design engineer identify the degree of protection
provided by an enclosure, EN60.529/IEC 529 (International
Electrotechnical Commission) was introduced. The latest
version was issued 11/89. (Correct at date of printing).
Both harmonized standards classify the extent to which an
enclosure will resist the ingress of solid bodies and water
under designated tests.
After successful testing the enclosure will be allocated
a classification code with the letters IP (International
Protection) prefixing that code.
Further explanation of the degree of protection provided
by an enclosure indicated by the IP-code is detailed below:

TECHNICAL DATA
Degreasing, Iron Phosphatizing and Rinsing
During this process the steel is cleaned and passivated.
This way the product will not corrode and good adhesion
of the paint to the steel surface is achieved.
Forced Drying
To make sure that the products are completely dry before
the painting process starts, they are dried at 100 degree C.
Structure Powder Coating
The powder coating is electrostatically applied. This way
ALL faces are covered inside and outside assuring high
mechanical strength, very good corrosion protection and
resistance to chemicals, temperature and weather variations.
The powder coating can easily be re-painted and is free
from heavy metals, chromate and silicon.

MATERIALS AND FINISHES METALS
CHARACTERISTICS OF VARIOUS MATERIALS
Hot Rolled Pickled and Oiled Steel Sheets
(ASTM A569)
A low-carbon, hot-finished steel produced by passing bar stock, at a
temperature above the recrystallation temperature, between a set of
rolls. Scale has been removed by means of a hot, weak sulfuric acid
bath, after which an oil film is applied.
Cold Rolled Steel (ASTM A366)
A low-carbon, cold-finished steel produced by passing bar stock
through a set of rolls.
Galvanized Steel (ASTM A526)
Steel with a zinc coating to provide corrosion resistance. The
most common method of applying the zinc coating is hot dip
galvanizing. Other optional methods include electrodeposition
and metal spraying. Galvanizing provides protection against
corrosion by serving as a sacrificial barrier and providing cathodic
protection at sheared edges.
18-8 Stainless Steel (Type 302-304)
A highly corrosion resistant iron-based alloy containing between 18%
and 20% chromium. Stainless steel is the strongest of the corrosion
resistant materials. It exhibits many of the same resistances attributed
to fiberglass materials as well as resistance to highly polar solvents
such as acetone and mek.
316 or 316L Stainless Steel
Provide improved resistance to salt, some acids, and high temperature.
Resistance to sulfates and chlorine is less than Type 304.
5052 Aluminum
A lightweight metal that has a protective oxide layer which shields its
surface from most corrosive elements. 5052 is the strongest non-heat
treatable aluminum alloy.
Monel
A high nickel-base alloy characterized by good strength and good
resistance to heat and corrosion.

General indoor and outdoor use after a suitable finish has been applied
to protect against corrosion.
Indoor or outdoor use in neutral pH (pH is a measurement of the degree
of acidity or alkalinity of a solution: pH values from 0 to 7 indicate acidity,
and pH values from 7 to 14 indicate alkalinity). Resists oil, gas, glycerine,
dichromates, borates, and silicates. Most frequent application is outdoor
including seacoast atmospheres. Additional finishes may be applied to
improve corrosion resistance.
Indoor and outdoor use. Ideally suited for use in food processing areas,
dairies, breweries, or any wet area. Also works well in areas where caustic
elements or alkalies are present.
Indoor or outdoor use in almost any environment. These stainless steels
are the most corrosion resistant metal materials used by Wiegmann for
enclosures. A superior material choice for marine environments.
Indoor or outdoor use, particularly in marine environments. Also an
excellent choice for enclosures exposed to solvents, petrochemicals,
some acids, most sulfates and nitrates.
Frequently specified for marine and chemical plant applications.
Mainly used as hardware on non-metallic enclosures.

Repainting
For best adhesion results, correct surface preparation before
repainting is critical. To avoid discoloration of solvent-based
high solids baking enamel, do not bake over 360 F. Always
follow instructions provided by your paint manufacturer.
Apply thin finish coats. Allow the paint to cure properly for
best adhesion and hardness.
Panel Installation
When installing the interior sub-panel, it may be necessary
to bend one or more mounting studs (slightly) to permit the
panel to slide in place. If this would happen, simply position
the panel on the studs that line up properly, and pry the
other stud into position with a screwdriver inserted through
the panel hole.
Door Closing Adjustments
(Single Door Wall Mount) If the surface on which the
enclosure is mounted is not flat, the door may not open and
close properly. If heavy equipment is mounted on the door,
the door may sag slightly. If the top of door strikes the lip
which extends around the body opening, place metal shims
behind the mounting foot which is located at the bottom
of the enclosure and closest to the door hinge. Place the
shims between the mounting foot and the wall or mounting
surface; be sure all mounting bolts are tight!
(Two Door Floor Mounting) The overlapping doors are
factory-fitted to meet evenly at the top and bottom. If the
floor under the enclosure is not level, the doors will not close
evenly. In this case, place metal shims under the corners
of the enclosure. The enclosure should be bolted in place
with doors closed to prevent tipping when installing shims.
Shims under the right front corner will raise the right door.
Shims under the left front corner will raise the left door. It is
important that the doors meet evenly to insure a proper seal
against liquids and dust. Be sure all mounting bolts are tight!
Lifting Enclosures
To lift an enclosure which has eyebolts or mounting feet,
be sure to use all the eyebolts or tip mounting feet provided.

you are lifting straight up on the eyebolts or top mounting feet.
