Nine Position Push Button Boxes
9‑position push button boxes are engineered to accommodate nine actuator devices (push buttons, selector switches, pilot lights) in a square layout, consolidating multiple controls into one compact station. These enclosures maintain robust protection and structured wiring for industrial control, safety, and automation applications.
Key Technical Specifications & Selection Criteria
-
Material & Construction: Standard models use 0.063" carbon steel with ANSI‑61 gray powder coating and continuously welded seams for structural strength. Stainless steel (304) variants are provided for corrosive or washdown environments.
- Depth & Orientation: Extra‑deep models extend depth to 4.75" or 6" for added internal clearance. Sloped front enclosures allow for more ergonomic access.
-
Actuator Hole Pattern: The 3 x 3 configuration supports 22.5 or 30.5 mm actuator entries.
-
Sealing & Ingress Protection: Meets NEMA Type 4, 12, 13, UL Type 4/12, and IEC IP66 ratings to guard against dust, oil, sprays, and washdown. Cover screws thread into sealed wells and gaskets are oil- and water-resistant to preserve integrity under vibration and thermal cycling.
-
Application & Selection Tips
-
Use stainless steel models in washdown or corrosive environments to resist degradation. Otherwise, carbon steel is sufficient
-
Choose extra‑deep versions when your internal wiring, relays, or terminal blocks need more clearance.
-
Match actuator hole diameter to your control devices before installation.
-
Ensure your application’s environmental demands are met by the enclosure’s ingress rating.
-
Plan wiring routes and mounting layout early to minimize internal interference.
