| Continued from February 2009 CTI Newsletter City Theatrical Now Offers ETL Listed Custom Outdoor Use EnclosuresIf
you have been responsible for mounting lighting control gear outdoors you
know that it can be a difficult task. Choosing a weatherproof
enclosure of the correct size and shape, trying to figure how your gear will
mount and connect, wondering what size holes you need for connections to the
outside world, all are really daunting for the designer or systems
integrator. Now,
City Theatrical can help you do it efficiently, at less expense than you
might imagine, and with an ETL label that is required by law in many cities. We've
launched our new 7400 series Outdoor Use Enclosures. These new
enclosures are available with NEMA 3R, NEMA 4, or NEMA 4X ratings, and with
IP ratings up to IP66. They may be custom ordered in virtually any size and
configuration, and all styles will be ETL Listed to UL STD 508A under City
Theatrical’s ETL Shop Listing. ETL
is one of the largest OSHA recognized Nationally Recognized Testing
Laboratories (NRTLs) in the U.S. As an NRTL, ETL provides Listing Services based on UL Standards.
City Theatrical has been producing ETL Listed products for decades,
and has been producing ETL Listed custom products under its ETL Shop Listing
since 2004. These
custom enclosures may be manufactured in steel, stainless steel, or
aluminum, and may be powder coated in a range of durable and attractive
colors. City Theatrical can implement customer designs or provide
complete ground-up designs based on customer application requirements.
All of the new 7400 series Outdoor Use Enclosures are designed and
manufactured in City Theatrical’s The
addition of Outdoor Use Enclosures to City Theatrical’s portfolio means
that we can quickly expand the range of standard outdoor use versions of our
many popular products, as well as provide custom outdoor use enclosures and
complete products to our customers that are optimized for each customer and
application. For instance, we could provide an outdoor enclosure for
your SHoW DMX™ Transmitter broadcasting DMX to LED fixtures lighting up
the outside of a building, or we could help you design a custom enclosure to
protect your own lighting control gear. Developing
this new capability is another example of City Theatrical’s commitment to
innovation and growth, and will allow us to serve our customers in exciting
new ways. Call us with your application questions or email our Head of
