Weatherproof cabinets

30 May 2012 Enclosures, Racks, Cabinets & Panel Products

Legrand’s new Plexo³ range – which consists of weatherproof cabinets, multi-function sleeves and accessories – has a spacious design, with no constraints on wiring requirements. This range, with a fully reversible door and cabinet, ensures optimised cable runs and efficient cable organisation in commercial and industrial environments.

The design of these recently launched cabinets provides plenty of space behind the rails (a 2-position rail, with depth adjustment), a space of 150 mm between the rails and 38 mm space at the side, allowing the cables to run easily. There are 11 sizes of cabinets available, with 2, 4, 6 and 8 modules, as well as 12 and 18 modules.

These self-extinguishing cabinets can accommodate Legrand’s Lina 25 pre-drilled plates for the integration of non-modular products – including transformers and power supplies – in combination with solid faceplates. DPX MCCBs are easily installed on the 2-position rail with depth adjustment and Osmoz industrial control units can also be fitted onto the solid faceplates.

The modular cabinets, which are designed for quick and safe installation, have a removable faceplate for easy maintenance on individual rows. Other features for efficient installation include rails that can be individually removed and a removable chassis for wiring outside the cabinet. These units can be fitted with terminal blocks which can be easily repositioned at the top and bottom of the box.

Plexo³ cabinets, with UV treatment, have an IP65 protection rating against dust and jets of water from all directions. Shock-resistant polystyrene is used in their manufacture and an IK09 rating means enhanced protection against mechanical impact. A flush-mounted lockable door handle ensures improved shock protection and a double closing point has been designed for a reliable seal.

The joining kit allows cables to be run horizontally or vertically between the multifunction sleeve and the cabinet or between two cabinets, with no compromise to the IP65 protection rating.

Accessories have been specially designed for effortless tool-free fitting and removal. Different sizes of direct piercing end caps and knockout cable entries can be mounted at the top and bottom of the cabinet. Cable glands are easily fitted according to exact requirements and hinges hold the cover for easy access to the cables.

This range is available from Legrand’s national distributor network, which also offers a technical advisory and backup service.
