Enclosure Floor Stands, Pedestals, Legs, & Casters
Electrical enclosures are designed to house industrial components and to protect them from the surrounding environment. They are also designed to protect operators from electric shock. They come in many different shapes, sizes and materials. Some things to consider when selecting the proper enclosure would be the number of components housed inside and what material and rating will provide the appropriate protection. Enclosures come in wall-mount, floor-mount (with legs) and freestanding (enclosure extends to the floor). When selecting freestanding enclosures, there are several enclosure bases to consider: floor stands, leg and casters and pedestals.
Enclosure floor stands can easily be installed on most freestanding or wall-mount enclosures for floor mounting or to add additional height.
Enclosure casters are small swiveling wheels that can be attached to allow heavy enclosures to be easily moved or relocated.
Enclosure pedestals and bases are used to support an operator interface enclosure. They come with or without legs and heights varying between 6 inches and 41 inches. Swivel bases can be installed between the bottom of the operator interface enclosure and the pedestal. They are used to provide a machine operator a way to easily rotate an operator interface enclosure to a maximum of 550 degrees, resulting in a convenient operating position. Swivel bases can be locked in any position.
Combination swivel and tilt bases are designed for use between an HMI enclosure and the pedestal. They are used to provide a machine operator a way to rotate and tilt an HMI enclosure for safe operation and optimal viewing. The swivel feature allows a maximum rotation of 350 degrees and the tilt feature allows forward and backward movement up to 30 degrees from horizontal. Swivel can be locked in any position and tilt lock allows incremental adjustments.
