The standard mounting plate is depth adjustable on fixing brackets and C rails, helping panel builders configure the internal installation around the equipment required for each application.
The MPCS series is designed around a flexible modular construction concept with interchangeable top, desk and base sections. The MPCS163 combines this flexibility with AISI 304 stainless steel construction, a wide double-door arrangement and IP55 ingress protection, providing a practical solution for industrial applications requiring substantial installation space, convenient equipment access and dependable environmental protection.
