Frequently Asked Questions

Number of FAQs related to ENC12/14: 15

Expand AllCollapse All

  1. The ENC12/14 weighs 11.2 lb. Its internal dimensions are 12 x 14 x 5.5 in.
  2. The terminals do not need to be replaced. Just sand or file the corrosion away, exposing clean copper, and the fittings will continue to be functional.
  3. Our fiberglass enclosures can withstand very cold locations, and their fiberglass/plastic construction is very resistant to corrosion.
  4. If you purchased a Stahlin enclosure from Campbell Scientific and it has a failed gasket, we can help you. We will need you to provide an image of the failed gasket, verify the size of your enclosure, and provide your contact information. We can then arrange to have a replacement gasket sent to you from Stahlin. For assistance, contact Technical Support at 435.227.9100.

  5. It depends on the device. Most devices have built-in mounting flanges, but some items require a separate mounting bracket.
  6. There is not an easy way to calculate how much desiccant is needed in an enclosure or how quickly the desiccant will need to be replaced. The following conditions affect the replacement interval:

    • How much humidity the enclosure is exposed to
    • The size of the enclosure
    • How often the enclosure door is opened and how long the door remains open
    • How airtight the enclosure is

    It may be advantageous to use more than one desiccant packet at a time inside an enclosure. Campbell Scientific recommends keeping an extra supply of desiccant on hand for as-needed replacement in the enclosure.

  7. Backplates are available in sizes designed to fit in Campbell Scientific enclosures: 10 x 12 in., 12 x 14 in., 14 x 16 in., and 16 x 18 in.

  8. Yes. In the Ordering information area of the enclosure's web page, navigate to the Replacement Parts section. The Universal Backplate for the enclosure is listed there.

  9. Use a router with a fine-toothed bit. A hole saw will also work, but the edges will not be as clean as from using a router.
