Washdown (NEMA 4X) AC Drives
Category Selection
The NEMA 4X environmental rating is given to drive enclosures that are washdown duty-rated and built to withstand a harsh environment. Food and beverage processing and water treatment facilities (both indoors and outdoors) are examples of harsh environments where the equipment will be subject to repeated high-pressure washdowns.
The NEMA 4X enclosure also allows you to mount the VFD directly to a machine, outside of an electrical panel. This can eliminate long runs of expensive VFD cable for motor wiring, reduce the need for external VFD output filters and in some cases simply provide a convenient, self-contained motor control at the machine or conveyor with an optional OSHA certified lock-out/tag-out disconnect.
