Accessories for Killark Enclosures
Killark backplates are internal mounting panels designed to provide a stable, code compliant surface for installing electrical and automation components inside Killark enclosures. These panels help reduce assembly time, improve wiring organization, and create a cleaner internal layout for maintenance and troubleshooting. By using a backplate specifically engineered for Killark enclosures, installers can ensure proper fitment without compromising enclosure ratings or internal clearances.
Many Killark backplates are suitable for use in enclosures installed in Class I Division 1 and Class I Division 2 hazardous locations. They are commonly used in industrial environments such as oil and gas, wastewater treatment, food and beverage processing, marine applications, and other corrosive or harsh conditions. Available material options allow users to balance strength, weight, and environmental resistance based on application needs.
Material choices include steel, aluminum, and fiberglass. Steel backplates provide maximum structural support for heavier components such as transformers and relays. Fiberglass backplates offer corrosion resistance, reduced weight, and long service life in chemical or outdoor environments. Selecting a Killark brand backplate ensures compatibility with enclosure dimensions, mounting hole patterns, and fasteners for reliable internal equipment support.
