Modular Surface-Mount Enclosure Noark PNS 12T 101498 — 1x12 Modules, IP40, White/Transparent

Noark PNS 12T (101498) is a modular surface-mount enclosure designed to accommodate devices across a 1x12 DIN-module width. The enclosure has a white body with a transparent cover and provides IP40 protection against solid objects. It is intended for mounting distribution breakers, modular relays and terminal blocks in residential and light commercial installations where surface mounting is required and protection from contact with solid foreign objects is needed.

Advantages

The enclosure offers a compact, standardized modular layout for a 1x12 module row, a transparent cover for easy visual inspection of installed components, and an IP40 rating that shields internal equipment from contact with solid particles. Surface-mount construction allows installation on walls or panels without recessing, and the white housing provides a neutral appearance suitable for many interior environments.

Suitable for

• Housing distribution circuit breakers and DIN-rail modular devices
• Protecting modular relays, terminal blocks and small control components
• Surface-mounted electrical installations in apartments, small offices and service rooms
• Retrofit or extension projects where flush mounting is not possible

Key specifications

• Module capacity: 1 row × 12 DIN-module width
• Protection class: IP40 (protection against solid objects larger than 1 mm)
• Mounting type: surface-mount enclosure
• Housing colour: white with transparent cover
• Intended internal mounting: DIN-rail compatible for modular components

How to use

Mount the Noark PNS 12T enclosure on a suitable flat surface using appropriate fasteners for the substrate material. Install a DIN rail inside the enclosure if not pre-fitted, then snap or screw modular devices such as breakers, relays and terminal blocks onto the rail within the 1×12 module width. Route wiring into the enclosure through provided entry points or knockouts, secure connections according to applicable electrical standards and replace the transparent cover to allow visual inspection while maintaining IP40 protection.

Usage recommendations

Use this enclosure in dry indoor environments where IP40 protection is sufficient. Verify compatibility of mounted devices with the 1×12 module width and ensure installation follows local electrical codes. For locations requiring moisture or higher dust protection, select an enclosure with a higher IP rating.
