Eaton CI44E-125 Insulating Enclosure, Polycarbonate, IP65, IK08, Grey, 125A, Surface Mount 031436

Electrical installations in demanding environments require enclosures that can withstand mechanical impact, moisture, and dust while ensuring safety and longevity. The Eaton CI44E-125 insulating enclosure provides a robust, halogen-free polycarbonate housing with IP65 protection, making it ideal for industrial and commercial applications where reliable component protection is critical.

Who is it for

This enclosure is designed for electricians, panel builders, and maintenance engineers who need a durable, surface-mounted solution for housing electrical components such as circuit breakers, terminals, and control gear. It is particularly suited for use in factories, workshops, and outdoor installations where exposure to harsh conditions is a concern.

Main features

• High-quality polycarbonate (PC) construction: provides excellent insulation, impact resistance (IK08), and UV stability for long-term outdoor use.
• IP65 protection: completely dust-tight and protected against low-pressure water jets from any direction, ensuring reliable operation in wet or dusty environments.
• Rated insulation voltage up to 1000 V AC / 1500 V DC: suitable for a wide range of low-voltage applications.
• Opaque grey cover (RAL 7035): offers a clean, professional appearance while concealing internal components.
• Quarter-turn lock with two locking points: secure, tool-operated closure prevents unauthorized access.
• Halogen-free and self-extinguishing: enhances safety in the event of fire, reducing toxic emissions and flame spread.
• Wide operating temperature range: from -40 °C to +80 °C, allowing use in extreme climates.
