Overview

The ENC12/14 is a medium-sized, weather-resistant enclosure that is 12 inches wide and 14 inches tall. It is our most popular enclosure that balances cost with space requirements. This enclosure can house a data logger, a power supply, and one or more peripherals, depending on the footprint.

Please note that a grounding wire is not included with the enclosure.

Detailed Description

The ENC12/14's backplate is prepunched with half-inch-on-center holes suitable for attaching a data logger, power supply, and a communications or measurement and control peripheral.

The ENC12/14 is shipped with the 7363 enclosure supply kit that consists of desiccant, a humidity indicator card, cable ties, wire tie tabs, putty, grommets, screws, and PVC coupling. Additionally, Campbell Scientific offers a CS210 Enclosure Humidity Sensor for monitoring relative humidity inside of the enclosure. (See Ordering Info on the web page.)

Number of FAQs related to ENC12/14: 15

Expand AllCollapse All

  1. What are the weight and internal dimensions of the ENC12/14?
    The ENC12/14 weighs 11.2 lb. Its internal dimensions are 12 x 14 x 5.5 in.
  2. What can be done if an enclosure gasket becomes torn or damaged?

    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.

  3. If the copper ground terminals attached to the bottom of an enclosure are oxidized and corroded, how can they be replaced?
    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.
  4. Is a fiberglass enclosure suitable for an installation in a very cold location monitoring corrosion?
    Our fiberglass enclosures can withstand very cold locations, and their fiberglass/plastic construction is very resistant to corrosion.
  5. If the PVC fittings at the bottom of the enclosure have too small an inner diameter to accommodate all the cables passing through, is there a way to remove the PVC fittings?
    Unscrew the PVC fittings to remove them.
  6. How many mounting accessories should be ordered for each major device inside an enclosure?
    It depends on the device. Most devices have built-in mounting flanges, but some items require a separate mounting bracket.
  7. What factors affect the amount of desiccant needed in an enclosure?

    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.

  8. Does the enclosure have a mounting bracket inside to mount the data logger?
    Yes. Each enclosure Campbell Scientific sells has a powder-coated backplate with holes on 1 in. centers that match the mounting flanges on our equipment for easy mounting.
  9. Can a display be put on the outside of an enclosure?

    Yes. The CD100 mounts in an enclosure door and supports all of the CR1000KD capabilities. With the CD100, historic and real-time data can be read, and instructions can be entered without opening the enclosure door.

    Other available options that display real-time data only are the CD295 and CD294.

  10. What is the preferred method for punching a clean hole through the bottom of an enclosure?
    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.
