Indoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against settling airborne dust, falling dirt, and dripping non- corrosive liquids. An enclosure for indoor use, constructed so as to provide a degree of protection against dripping and light splashing of non-corrosive liquids and settling dust, lint, fibers, and flyings. Type 6 Enclosures constructed for either indoor or outdoor use to provide a degree of protection to personnel against incidental contact with the enclosed equipment; to provide a degree of protection against falling dirt; against hose directed water and the entry of water during occasional temporary submersion at a limited depth; and that will be undamaged by the external formation of ice on the enclosure. Indoor or outdoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against hose- directed water, the entry of water during occasional temporary submersion at a limited depth, and damage from external ice formation. An enclosure for either indoor or outdoor use, constructed so as to provide a degree of protection against the entry of water during occasional temporary submersion at a limited depth; undamaged by the external formation of ice on the enclosure. Type 6P Enclosures constructed for either indoor or outdoor use to provide a degree of protection to personnel against incidental contact with the enclosed equipment; to provide a degree of protection against falling dirt; against hose- directed water and the entry of water during prolonged submersion at a limited depth; and that will be undamaged by the external formation of ice on the enclosure. Indoor or outdoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against hose- directed water, the entry of water during prolonged submersion at a limited depth, and damage from external ice formation. An enclosure for either indoor or outdoor use, constructed so as to provide a degree of protection against the entry of water during prolonged submersion at a limited depth; undamage by the external formation of ice on the enclosure; resists extended corrosion. Type 12 Enclosures constructed (without knockouts) for indoor use to provide a degree of protection to personnel against incidental contact with the enclosed equipment; to provide a degree of protection against falling dirt; against circulating dust, lint, fibers, and flyings; and against dripping and light splashing of liquids. Indoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against circulating dust, falling dirt, and dripping non-corrosive liquids. An enclosure for indoor use, constructed so as to provide a degree of protection against circulating dust, lint fibers, and flyings; dripping and light splashing of non-corrosive liquids; and provided with knockouts. Type 12K Enclosures constructed (with knockouts) for indoor use to provide a degree of protection to personnel against incidental contact with the enclosed equipment; to provide a degree of protection against falling dirt; against circulating dust, lint, fibers, and flyings; and against dripping and light splashing of liquids. Indoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against circulating dust, falling dirt, and dripping non-corrosive liquids. An enclosure for indoor use, constructed so as to provide a degree of protection against circulating dust, lint fibers, and flyings; dripping and light splashing of non-corrosive liquids; and provided with knockouts. Type 13 Enclosures constructed for indoor use to provide a degree of protection to personnel against incidental contact with the enclosed equipment; to provide a degree of protection against falling dirt; against circulating dust, lint, fibers, and flyings; and against the spraying, splashing, and seepage of water, oil, and non-corrosive coolants. Indoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against dust, spraying of water, oil, and non-corrosive coolant. An enclosure for indoor use, constructed so as to provide a degree of protection against circulating dust, lint, fibers, and flyings; seepage and spraying of non-corrosive liquids including oils and coolants.
