Product Information

Full details

The Hensel Enystar Connection Box FP CB 210 is designed for users building modular distribution boxes for non-professional operation, offering a secure and weather-resistant solution for outdoor electrical installations. Its key benefit is the robust construction with impact-resistant polycarbonate and IP65 rated external connection capabilities, providing reliable operation even in challenging environments. A potential caveat is its focus on non-professional operation (DBO) standards, meaning specific electrical knowledge is required for proper assembly and use.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Hensel Enystar FP CB 210?

It serves as a component for building modular distribution boxes, particularly for outdoor use and non-professional operation (DBO) applications, allowing for external operation of installed devices.

Is this enclosure suitable for direct outdoor exposure to rain?

Yes, the cabinet is designed for secure outdoor placement and meets IP65 standards for the external connection box, offering protection against dust and water jets. However, ensure all seals and cable entries are properly maintained.

What is the maximum electrical capacity of this distribution box?

The Hensel ENYSTAR distribution box system has a capacity of up to 250 A.

What materials is the enclosure made from?

The cabinet parts and doors are made from impact-resistant, halogen- and silicone-free polycarbonate in RAL 7035.

Does the enclosure provide electrical protection?

Yes, it features double insulation (protection class II) and meets IEC 60 695-2-11 flammability standard with a 960 °C Glow-wire test.

Can I install standard electrical components inside?

Yes, it is designed to house various electrical devices, including those that need to be operated from the outside, provided they fit within the enclosure dimensions and comply with the overall system's electrical capacity.

What does 'non-professional operation (DBO)' mean in this context?

It refers to distribution boxes intended for use by individuals who are not qualified electricians, but under specific conditions and standards (IEC 61 439-3) that require careful design and installation to ensure safety.

Troubleshooting

Door does not seal properly.

Check for obstructions around the seal. Ensure the door is correctly aligned and latched. The seal may need replacement if damaged.

External connection box (FP) shows signs of water ingress.

Verify that all cable glands and seals for the FP connection box are properly installed and tightened according to IP65 standards. Inspect the enclosure for any cracks or damage.

Difficulty mounting the enclosure.

Ensure the wall surface is sound and capable of supporting the weight of the enclosure and its contents. Use appropriate mounting hardware for the specific wall type.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The FP CB 210 is designed as a modular component for building distribution boxes. Installation requires adherence to IEC 61 439-3 standards for non-professional operation. Ensure the chosen location is suitable for wall mounting and can accommodate the cabinet's dimensions (215 x 270 x 163mm). Internal device installation should follow standard electrical practices, paying attention to wiring capacity and safety regulations.

Compatibility: This connection box is compatible with other Hensel ENYSTAR modular cabinet system components. It is designed to house electrical devices that need external operation, such as switches, plug connectors, and pulse generators. Ensure any external devices or internal components are rated appropriately for the 250 A capacity.

Care: Cleaning should be done with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the polycarbonate material. Ensure the door seal remains intact to maintain its weather-resistance. Periodically check connections and the integrity of the enclosure, especially if installed outdoors.
